JoJhol

I am back to end another of self imposed exiles of sorts by writing about Jo-Jhol ... nay... this has got nothing to do with the "Namesake" character Gogol ... this is a creative union of names of my friend aka “Jhol” and his latest* love interest “Jo” (as he likes to call her) …

I won’t bore ya’all by writing the nitigrities of their love isstory (read as none of us “close” friends too were aware of any of the happenings until his avowal very recently :)) ... just that this incident has reinstated my faith in a couple of maxims; so jotting those down on ma blog for the benefit of rest of my single friends …

--> Keep trying unless you succeed ...

Almost on the verge of giving away his dream (the one that he was dreaming since his adolescence days) of a love marriage; to the extent that he had also seen 3-4 girls following the dreaded process of arranged marriage (add to it he had met girls from remote places outta mumbai too :))... but then this kamina was still trying to pataofy girls ... and (unfortunately for Jo :)) he finally succeeded after 10 years** …. So friends, never lose hope and give up; success might just be round the corner J … (Always have the story of King Bruce and the Spider going on at the back of your mind …)

--> Destiny can strike out of the blue ...

Things that are meant to be are just meant to be … and totally unexpected situations can lead to what is destined which in itself is unbelievable until it happens … like who would have thought that two people from vastly different cultures and backgrounds, who have met in person just for handful number of days and are sited about 650 kms apart would decide to spend the rest of their life together …

hmmmm … will end this post with hearty Congratulations to Jhol & Jo and wish them luck for an awesome life together.

ciao friends n take care,
hiren

* use of the word “latest” here is intended to mean recent just in context of time and not in numeric context; although people knowing Jhol might want to disagree :P

** 5 in college + 5 at workplace. Efforts below the age of 18 do not count, so school & junior college years not considered.

P.S. 1: Real identities concealed only after extreme pleading by Jhol :) (m writing this with a smirky & devilish smile on my face ;)) & all brutes who might get itchy to cash on this post for their sadistic pleasures are forewarned not to reveal true names in the comment section …else they might face severe consequences (jhol dost, don’t worry, I will set the comment section to be moderated:))

P.S. 2: Most important of all; no one is allowed to use this post and write comments to the effect of giving advice to me for settling down etc etc …. In short no comments about me getting married and all will be entertained. :)
