A lot has changed in my life and thankfully the changes are good. While life took a sharp turn when I made a move to the city of dreams (Mumbai) in May, I can feel the changes that have happened to me as a person. I have gone from being a nagging "nothing's happening" kind of a person to someone who can take charge and change things she doesn't like. 2011 has been a fabulous year for me. The experiences, good and bad, have created the person I would like to remain for the rest of my life.
Life saw an equal amount of ups and downs this year. While some people chose to leave my humble abode, I had to let go of the most precious person I had in life. He made his share of mistakes and so did I and there is only so much two people can do to make things work. With affection and positive vibes still alive, we decided to call it quits. It's a chapter that ended in life and a chapter I can never regret. I can never hate the man I loved so dearly for so many years, but I can't love what he has become anymore. I miss him and always will.
Wonderfully though, I am not alone in life. Just when I got "single" (in Facebook style) and there was no one beside me, my first ever best friend walked in with his arms wide open after 20 years. I am sure most people think I am making a jump from one stone to the other, but I can't deny the feelings that have developed and the commitment that has brewed in the short time that we have communicated. I am in love and very proud of it. With wedding bells around the corner, life seems to be going somewhere I am really looking forward to. Just as quickly and beautifully 2011 started, the year seems to be ending beautifully too.
In Mumbai, I have made friends, have met people who think like me and I can go back home and tell people that I am not weird like they have been claiming for so long. With a tattoo firmly in place reminding me of Her with me all the time, I am ready to take on life once again... bring it on.

As always expected from you, I like the honesty & open expression of the blog. 'Moving on' without guilt & blame is the mantra of today's existence and is depicted nicely.
Really fresh and honest
