Happenstance!

February 14, 07 by Bharani

I normally don’t forget to take the wallet when I go out. But I did today! On top of it, I had promised to take few colleagues out for a lunch…An embarassment was almost inevitable! Luckily, the lunch session got cancelled due to an urgent work for my colleague.

I received a nice little Valentine gift from my fiancee in the evening…I opened it and found an artistic hand-crafted leather wallet! I was wondering at the string of events…at the happenstance! More than the gift, it looked as if I was sent the wallet because I forgot it today :) A fulfilling gift indeed!

    Ram…

    you should have seen Big B in his engagement!!

    I have decided to call him ‘Bindaas Bharani’… totally dressed to kill… ekdam James Bond ishstyle…

    The man who was seen in formal attire 24 * 7 at ISB took things to the next level on D-Day.

    Bharani dear,

    Way to go…happy you’ve made the next big leap in life - from Bharani singular to Bharani plural…!
    Am sure, the same qualities that made you an island of peace and tranquility amidst the sea of turbulence on campus - which was more often than not :-) - will help you to excel in the current avocation too.

    Ol’ I-quaddie,
    VKV.

    Congrats Bharani

    That explains the lack of frequent updates :-)
    Here is a story from the other end of the spectrum.
    A friend of mine was not well on 13th
    so when i asked him if he was taking off the next day, he said that his team will think that it was an empty excuse.
    I asked him why would they do assume that and he proceeded to explain that since it was feb 14th they would assume so.
    That’s what ten plus years of marriage has done to me, these things just whiz by :-)

    Ankur… this has been in his pending list for long.

    Didn’t you see Big B lurking around in campus in an “unassuming” manner?
