Now even a person who's met me 2-3 times, may comment on my having gained/lost weight (in my case its always lost though)
or people may say 'oh u look familiar...have we met before'
or even a stranger couldd take a look and tell me 'oh, u got dark circles under your eyes girl, not sleeping, ill??'
or anyone at all cud tell me 'your clothes are nice', or 'gawd, whatever are u wearing'
or 'new hairstyle, ahaaa'
or, office pals would say, 'your working late, I notice'
and boss would say, 'u can still to do this extra bit, since I notice you’re almost done with......'
always, the friends notice 'I see , whyever the lousy mood'
or neighbor auntie says 'you've been on vacation I guess'
or even the unattached grocery chap says, 'I see you're not buying chips today'

and amidst all that people notice, in a few snaps that you have sent to a bunch of chums, and got the varied good/bad/ugly replies ; there's one reply that says -

I notice that u r not wearing your earrings in the snaps ,why ??

and I am left zapped.
at how little things in life, seemingly unimportant, open our eyes to see that there is always, one person, at any given time, any place, any situation, who always notices the one apparently insignificant thing that actually means a lot to you.

now only such a person could notice that I always wear only these said earrings , since forever. a meaningless note for anyone else but the one who knows. and it’s a question of as much concern as would be 'u don't look yourself today, hmmm et all........'

and this is what happened with me today. and I -
felt for a while disbelief that anyone could have noticed such a minority at all
felt I am yet eons behind when I feel 'oh, I know this, happens, all the time, u know.......'

for few things happen quite rare. and always in the unexpected rubble.
only this rubble fills the heart.

thank you dear friend, you made my day today.
