There are few of "You"s in my life, whom I can trust, with whom I can be myself and I know you won't abuse that trust. Our talk never finishes. And when we talk, we are in same wavelength, there are no barbed wires of missing connections and implied meanings. Each word we share are crystal clear, inside and out. The chat over the coffee, over the iced lemon soda, over the tea, over the sidewalk. These planned and unplanned meetings are the best moments of my life. Each time I meet and talk with "You"s I feel, I am not alone. There are great people around to get to know to.


They are like onions ( not a great metaphor but a best I could think of). Like onions, their goodness can be smelled afar, just knowing them from distance. But as the days goes by, you get closer and you understand the layers of their stories and experiences. These are the people you can never get tired talking to. They listen really well what you are talking about. When they listen, they do not offer advice instantly but rather speak with empathy and understanding which makes you feel "there is a way out". 

At times, you are far. You cannot meet or talk anymore like you used too. But one call, one email is enough to be reconnected. There again, begins a new saga of sharing one's life story, experiences and understand that life's most precious achievement is not how much money you made, but how many true friends you made.
