Thud thud thud!
That was my cell phone beeping to announce the arrival of a text message. Weird tone for an sms, but unique nevertheless.
I went through the routine of unlocking the keypad, and choosing the option to read the message. I'd have to wait for almost a minute thanks to the processing speed in my phone. I took another sip of my tea.
The message was from my friend, a forwarded message. She sends those everyday. One day it is about love, one day about life, one day about education. They are either too sentimental, or have some philosophical value or are just plain funny.
Today, it was about friendship. It read:
'Friendship is like a small bird on your palm. You hold your palm open, and it flies away. You hold it too tight, it dies away.'
I have heard something similar about love ealier. Something that said Love is like the butterfly on your outstretched arm. It flies away if you don't hold it. And it is crushed to death if you hold it too tight.
But this sms said Friendship was like that. I chose the reply option on the phone and started typing 'It is true for love. But I don't think it suits friendship. I think friends would only get closer if you hold them tighter.'
Then I remembered him.
I erased what I had just typed and kept my phone away.

My Tales
The tales I post here, I pen them down, inspired from reality, inspired from dreams, giving way to more imagination and me, the gratification.
If they are to be labelled and classified, I'd put them under two headings:
The 'Instant Kaapi', the ones that are there on this page, shorter of the short stories, that you can read while you are at my page.
The other would be the 'Parcel Service' the ones that are longer, are in the form of word docs and pdf-s, uploaded somewhere backlinked here, that you can download and read at a later time.
Dream along!
