Some Days

Not everything has to go right. The pani puri, for example, might not turn out to be the best you've had. The weather may not turn out to be the fairest. The ice cream might just melt too soon. You might find yourself uncomfortably in the middle of a rather annoying dust storm. You might miss a few turns in the confusing roundabout that is India Gate...

A thousand things might go wrong.

And still your heart might be glad. And there might be a smile on your lips and a song in your heart. Because the bike purred like a kitten. Because the two of you looked like priceless eggheads thump-thump-ing your way around town. Because the conversation didn't take doing and the silences were comfortable. Because the fish was cooked just right and the cheesecake was delectable. Because she looked at you like you looked at her and both of you laughed. Because laughing, and being happy, seemed like the most natural thing to do. Because, nearing midnight, neither of you wanted to go home...

A thousand things might turn out just right.

Some days are perfect because they just are! And two in a row? I ain't complaining :-)
