"A Brief Walk Down The Memory Lane"

I was searching my cupboard for a CD, when suddenly my hands touched a packet. A broad Smile decorated my face as I peeped into the content... CARDS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lots and Lots of  Birthday , New Year , Valentine’s day, Rakhi, Farewell, Christmas, Diwali Cards that were gifted to me during this 24 years of my journey !!!

I forgot completely about the cd and browsed through my collection. It reminded me of all the smiling faces who gifted me this lifelong treasure. The oldest card I found was given to me by my paternal grandparents when I was 7 years old, a handmade card with Mickey Mouse on top. My grandparents are no more alive but their wishes are still lively in the card and my memory!

Most of the cards were from my school and college days...Strange, we didn’t earn then but still saved pocket money to buy these items to bring smile on our loved ones face. The whole idea being so selfless and pure. It made me feel so proud and rich. It made me feel loved and cared…A thought ran in my mind to make a collage of all these cute wishes, although all couldn't be fit into the frame but each card is worth a million to me!

E- Cards today have almost replaced the practice of gifting cards to mark an occasion. But the happiness felt when suddenly you come across a hand-made or a purchased card containing the hand written message given long back is uncomparable!!!!!! I will always cherish this treasure of mine!!!!
