Sand Dunes: Part 3

A stroke of mascara, a hint of gloss, tinkling of ear rings and Paridhi was ready. Today from morning itself she had a spring in her step and a constant smile on her lips. Checking herself again in the mirror, she stepped outside to get an auto rickshaw. Today she was meeting Amu after a long wait of one month. Its been two years since her best friend has got promoted to be her love of life.

After initial hiccups in the beginning of the journey, some bruises here and there, their car is now back on track on a smooth road ahead. Problem was not in not knowing each other temperament but every relation has its own flavors and conditions. To gel with them is always a challenge, once you have understood, everything becomes fine. Still there are arguments but not important enough to reconsider decisions. They are just a part of life now, like bubbles that you notice but blow it away and not take seriously.

And what brought some sense to this little girl, is the real truth of life. We all have heard it often that do not take anything for granted. But only when the fear of losing someone or something looms over, then you realize the real importance of that someone/thing in your life. Then all the small arguments look irrelevant in front of whole life.

When she was sure of what she wants in life and from that moment, life seemed better. She was lucky to have someone special by her side always .Bestest friend for life in the real sense, with whom she can be just herself ,no pretentions and no fear of getting judged every moment.Even Amu is now happy with a sense of peace settling in.

One say that love stories should have happy endings. I say that they shouldn’t have any endings at all. Love is for life and it goes on and on till you take your last breath. 

Life is like a sand dune, one moment it is here and as the wind of time blows, it moves to entirely different place, changing in its shape and slope.
