I would like to share an incident…it was like they show in movies!!! It reminded me of the movie , Life’s Beautiful…don’t ask me the connection :P!! (happened on 13th feb 2008)

 Yesterday, I got a hug from a cab driver…I was smiling off to Glory! I booked a cab along with my friend back home from work!!

 He was a greek man may be in his late forties or early fifties!! He said a few words in Hindi like achha…

He said : “ Lady, you should develop some nice diesel for my car so that I earn more, save more by spending less on fuel”….

I smiled….

He said: “ You promise??”….

“Ya”…I said!!

And  as I gave him the fare, he took and before returning the change he just asked me “what do you say “Thank You” in Indian??”

I said “ Shukriya”…

He said “Shukriya Gudiya”…

I was surprised!!!

He then was about to go back when he asked me what do we say bye bye in Indian… I said… “Well, I say TaTa”…he laughed and said “Ohh that’s what the toddlers say!!” …I smiled and said “Ya …but I still say that”….he just moved towards me…I was on the pavement….and said “ Ohh Dear!! Gimme a Hug”…. and gave me one!! He went back to his cab, and driving away, out of the window, waved and said “Take care Dear young Lady…Hope to see you soon Good Luck!!”…I was dumbstruck!!

I was wondering and smiling to myself and probably I now know who sent me a Hug when I needed one!!

Life’s Beautiful Indeed!!

PS: The previous day I was missing everyone at home!! Even small incidents make you feel damn good...believe me!!
