#134 …when you have it, you don't need to have anything else, and if you don't have it, it doesn't matter much what else you have.

“Why are you so sad? Just move on. You don’t know how lucky you are. You have all that anybody would be dead jealous of – a loving home, a caring family, hefty bank balance, a charming personality, a bright future and sweet friends like me. What else do you seek?” I said, trying to make him understand the futility of crying over spilt milk.

He kept quiet. I nudged him. He smiled bleakly.

“Its funny the way I feel.” Another pause and then he continued, “You know what you just mentioned, all those things defined me at one time. But today, without Sakshi, they mean nothing to me. All these riches are a waste if they couldn’t bring her back.”

I knew what he said make sense but I also knew thinking that way would do no good to him. So I got up, tagged him along for some outing, some entertainment, that will divert his mind, atleast temporarily.

I sometimes wonder ...

if its better to have loved and lost 

and feel the way he was feeling 

or to never have loved at all 

and feel the way I am feeling!!
