come to think about it.......

Think about the number of times you take your loved ones for granted. I'm writing this as i see a Samsung, Nokia and Reliance ad in a sequence.Allthree talk about why having a colour phone with polyphonic ring tones is so much more cooler.

A couple of months back my dad bought a sleek phone with all those funky features. He never mentioned whom it was for. Yeah it was for the family alright.

I've been using my mob for about 4 yrs now and I'm telling you it looks cool. Yeah after 4 yrs! But that doesnt imply that I shouldn't have second thoughts. After all, I did have to give mine a good repair. The speaker phone wasnt functioning. I'd have lived without it, until my friend on the other end couldn't hear me anymore!!

My mom has been using this old fashioned phone for more than 2 yrs and I knew she wasnt too comfortable with it. Atleast she never used to flaunt it like most of us did. And as always she never had a prob with me taking the new one. After all it was meant for me, or so she thought.

I asked her to keep it until I left for work,which was only a few months away.

I joined for work 3 months back and I still use the black and white phone. I'm glad I never took the phone from her. Probably it wouldn't have made much of a difference to her. She would have loved me still the same. But to me, it does.
