ACROSS THE OCEANS



Over the seas and continents across the world, I have made some wonderful friends. Who would have known this was possible a year back? I did not know any one of your existence.

Writing happened and so did the connections. We have bonded through our writings, having mutual respect and admiration for each other. Cheering up when we are down, celebrating in joy....you have all been there...without really judging me, offering your unconditional support and love.

Internet has indeed made the world smaller and I am glad that we are a part of each others’ life. I hope this happens to be so for the better part of my life.

  23. A "smaller" world perhaps, but hopefully a "larger" capacity to understand and tolerate differences. :)
