This time in my day, usually, I am on Facebook... so I thought, for once, (after a status update, of course... ) I'll close the Facebook window and open my Home one...
Coming on this forum (especially nowadays) feels like switching on the T.V. unusually early in the morning and finding and old show you always used to watch, cuddling up with a hot drink and enjoying it and reliving the days of your innocence again... even if you don't watch it as religiously as you used to, you can never ever not love it, you can never ever not feel its warmth, however many days months years have passed. What I'm trying to say is, it's always a welcoming pair of arms, regardless of whether you are in need of them or not.
And if there is one thing the forum has always taught me, it's that evergreen Beatles lyric... a song's lyrics only ever make sense to you if you have 'lived' them... and this forum has been exemplary in making me truly understand what it is we all need. On every level. From the simple warmth of friendship, to love for your beliefs, to love for your soulmate and finally and possibly most importantly, love for your own self.
There's not much more I can say in words of praise for this place... there will never be much more I can say, it is not something that can be trapped into words... you all have more than just felt it, so here's a toast to BWL! A truly random, spontaneous, well-meant toast for this forum that has touched us.......... and to its beautiful, wonderful, gorgeous, crazy, fun, intelligent, kind, witty people.
~ Mohobbat to ek javeda zindagi hai... ~
Ditto to everything you said daarling.
This place... truly is my home. The people that I call my family here, truly are my family.
Ohana means family. And family means no one gets left behind.
I don't know... to me, home is something you can never let go of. Sure, this forum hasn't just given me joy, there were times when it hurt me to come here, and sometimes, when I think back on everything, pain is definitely a part of my memories. But that's what family does, innit? We fight, we hate each other, we may even want to run away from each other, and for a time, we do run away... but in the end, it's home, it's family. We can hate and love each other at the exact same time. But love... love overpowers hate every single time.
Khushi once said to me, "You mean half my virtual world to me." And I just want to say that even if I don't come here as often as I used to... in the internet world, this is the only place I can call home and it means more to me than anything else in my virtual world.
My sister and I were watching Dragon Tales the other day (lol yes its a kiddy show, but i love it) and I don't know if you guys have heard of it, but it's about these two siblings, Max and Emmy who find a dragon scale in their attic (I think) and when they say a few magical words, they appear in a different dimension. A world full of dragons (lol) but friendly ones, caring ones, loving ones. Like Narnia i gess. So whatever, back to my point. My sister says, "I wish we had that." A magical place we can go to and forget our worries for a while. Or SHARE our worries and get love and support in return. A refuge of sorts. And I realized... I did have that. I do have that.
I love this place. I love my family here.
See how much this forum is a part of my life?
I bought a VERY cheap, second-hand black and white laser printer off a friend (for like... one fifths, or even less than that of its original price... absolute freaking bargain... Khushi would have been so proud of me! )... and seeing as I couldn't sleep, I decided I might as well install it onto my laptop... and I thought, "Hmm... to test its printing, I have to try something special for the first time..." ... and OK fine fine fineee yes the first thing I printed was something he wrote (... leave a girl alone, OK?! )... but I knew I couldn't show that to people who wanted to see how well my printer was working (and it works a DREAM... I love it!!), and so I decided to print out Tujhe Dekha To Yeh Jaana Sanam lyrics (ha ha ha yes... that has 'him' in it too but stilllll... ).... from no other than my beloved BWL website... I printed out the full thing, without trying to minimise the number of pages or copying and pasting onto a word document or anything... just the whole thing... as I used to collect Hindi song lyrics and translations from this website and put them all into a small purple file (for those of you who remember this story... lol)...
I guess I needed this forum's.... aura... 'blessings', if you like...
LOL... most people would want a God of some form or other for blessings... and whom do I choose but my own God (him) and BWL... LOL... sigh.
I love it. I love you guys. Mad people.
LMAO PAGAL! You are truly adorable, you know that? I really could see you printing out something he wrote before anyone else! Meri pagli, come here
Yes, I remember the story.
We love you too, madder person.
Huh? What story?
boo:as I used to collect Hindi song lyrics and translations from this website and put them all into a small purple file (for those of you who remember this story... lol)...
Shut uppppp.... At least I am not faltoo enough to go back and read everything I've written, just to find that quote, quote it, bold it and tell me I'm slow!
I never said I wasn't faltoo! I'll take the blame, guilty as charged ma'am!
and I didn't have to re-read it all, it was pretty easy to find, quote, bold, and post.
lol I wanna give this another try:
*ahem* Anything for you, my love...
And your point is?!?!?!
That you are so random.
Duh.
LOL What's it to you!
watching you guys go at it
is fun
lol
You're my twin, and I got a reputation to protect b*tch... Much as Oreo will disagree....
