Rediscovery

The last 2 years have been strange. After years (decades!) of losing total touch, old school friends have been returning to my life in ones and twos. First there were a few drops, then a trickle and now that we're all on Facebook, there's a veritable deluge!

I'm glad. I like the women we've become, each one of us. As Indrani put it, "I like where I'm at right now." Anjali, Promita, Indrani, Nila, Anuradha, Minakshi, Gargi, Sucharita, Sunrita, Mousumi, Sayantani: meeting you all after all these years, I like where you're at and I'm happy we met again at a time when we're all comfortable with who we are and what we're becoming.

Sumedha, Sunita, Shyamashree, you who've grown with me over the years, we're ageing well, aren't we?
Rama, Smita, Sumita, Roma, Seema, Rupa...and all those I'm in touch with virtually but am yet to meet in real time: I'm really looking forward to getting to actually knowing you all once again.
I think we'll make better friends this time around.
Cheers to a formiddable group of women!
