Everything that lives, lives not alone, not for itself

I think you people would have hared about the book “The monk who sold his ferrari”. I was reading the book. These lines were in the book “Everything that lives, lives not alone, not for itself “. It was told by “William Blake”

I liked it and just thought of sharing it…

He never believed in love until he met her. No special talents. But found one after he meets her, will tell in later part of the story. His dresses are as a normal guy with formals. He doesn’t show much interest in dressing.

Jegan is from a hindu family. His father is too much towards caste and religion as a normal previous generation father. His mother was his mentor and all he will do anything for her. He has one sister. He loves his family a lot. Never let his family down on any situation. His parents and family hates love marriages.

About Mona,

Her dressing sense is always good. Plays cards (not the boys game). Wakes up late. Prefers south Indian foods, avoids non-veg. she likes guys who understands her feeling and listen to her. She likes dancing too.

Mona is from a Christian family. Her father is pakka Christian. She loves her mother a lot. she has one younger brother. As in every family, she was chellam to her parents. She was not so religious, even she likes going to hindu temples with her friends. Her father is a good caring person; she wants to make her life ‘colorful’. sometimes she looses her religious thoughts. But those are for simple reasons, in case of marriage not sure how she behaves.

Their parent’s standing on love Marriage is quite simple: Mother knows what love is, father knows what life is.

Both family hates love marriage but both are ready to do anything for their child. But don’t know how they react to love marriages. Both father don’t like other religions.

Jegan’s weekend

Saturday Morning , Jegan was energized after seeing Mona’s message. With full enthusiasm, he went to see his friends. Seeing his happiness, Jegan’s friends asked ‘wat happened man? We never seen u like this? Is something fishy about u? Jegan knows he was out of the world; he tried to control his emotions but cant. He over reacted. So he admitted that few things happened in his life, which made him happy. One of his friend immediately asked ‘Who is tat girl da ?’. Jegan was surprised how his friend were able to find the reason, but he said ‘Nothing guys, I am normal only’ with a smile on his face.

Later on that day, Jegan was thinking about Mona. He wants to message and talk to her. He never hesitates to talk and send messages to girls, but this time he was little scared to do. Jegan scared because he is not looking her as normal person also Mona was in her home so he hesitated little whether it could give her any problem. He decided not to message her in the evening. Jegan’s mind said don’t message but his brain said message her. He went by his brain and sent a good night message in the night. His heart beat raised on receiving the delivery report. Jegan was excited, very nervous and millions of questions in his mind - what she thinks, whether she takes it wrongly, whether he crossed the boundary.

He got space to breath after 5 mins, yeah Mona replied back ‘Good night sweet dreams’. That night as you all know, once we get message like this in nite, we will not sleep. Jegan never slept but had a nice sweet dream ;-). He also was thinking that night, how would have Mona felt today, whether she felt as like him or not. After sooo many years Jegan saw the rare sun rise in his life.


Sunday he was busy with his works, talking to parents and his sister. He didn’t have enough time even to think about her.

Mona’s weekend

To say it was quite simple, she was exact opposite to Jegan. Once she went home, just to let Jegan know, she messaged. She enjoyed the whole day with family and her puppy.

But while traveling to her native, i.e. after speaking with Jegan, she thought about him. She thought Jegan was a nice guy. He was very decent in his approach. Till Saturday night she didn’t think about Jegan. Once she received a SMS from him. She just sent a reply message and slept the whole day. On Sunday she was also busy, there were no messages, calls from her. It’s a quite day for both of them but not till that night……………

Chennai Egmore – Journey 3

Mona berth is lower near to the entrance of the compartment. Since there was only 15 mins to Jegan’s native, Jegan decided to take his luggage near the entrance. Keeping his luggage down, Jegan sat in the edge of Mona’s berth. But he didn’t want to make her awake. The big horn sound from the train disturbed Mona. In the drowsy state Mona moved her legs and it accidentally hit Jegan (That was a luck for Jegan). Mona woke up and told sorry to Jegan. The immediate word came from Jegan was “No Problem, you carry on”. Mona asked Jegan, “Where are we?” He told Good Morning, the place was near his native and he will reach home in 15 mins. Mona with a astonish smile told “ oh! I slept too long”. During that time a guy selling coffee came and disturbed their speech. Jegan was not happy with that.

Jegan asked Mona, what’s the reason she goes home. She told, “ I am going to see my parent and my little puppy dog” with a beautiful smile on her face and asked back Jegan, the reason for his visit. He replied, “ I am also going for the same reason but not to see dog”. Mona again smiled at Jegan.

Jegan was more curious to ask her mobile number. But Mona overtook him and asked his number. Jegan was very much happy that Mona has also felt the same. He asked her number and gave a missed call to Mona. But that’s the first one they “Missed”. Jegan wanted to talk more to Mona, but she told your station is nearing and get ready to home. As soon as Mona said those words, Jegan started doing it, as a student does the work assigned by his teacher. Then the station arrived, the train stopped and also Jegan’s sweet little time. Mona told “Bye Jegan, have a nice time and see you at office” with a beautiful smile again. Jegan was little worried to leave her and with no option said bye.

Jegan’s mind was telling him that he would meet Mona before he meets her in office. Train started moving slowly and Jegan’s angle also went. He went home and was thinking about the time he spoke with Mona. After 3 hours, Jegan’s mobile beeped. Yes it was Mona’s message “Rchd home safely J“. That was the first message Jegan got from Mona. Jegan smiled on seeing it and he decided not to delete it..............
