For My (Pink) Chaddi Buddy!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TINA!!!!

No matter that it's Friday the 13th. Today is the luckiest day of my life. I cannot be thankful enough to whatever greater force controls our lives for this day - and for the greatest gift of my life. Thank you for making me a part of your world, thank you for always reminding me to be a better person, thank you for being the sister I never felt like I didn't have.

Tina is really one of the most incredible people I have ever met. She is warm and loving, fierce and opinionated and you only have to watch her belt out Ek Pal Ka Jeena* to know that she's the very definition of the word 'cool' :P She is one of those rare people who inspires hope, from the very moment that you encounter her. And, despite the whole world sniggering at us - we've dreamt many an idealistic dream together.

Wisdom, empathy, love, kindness, pagalpan, and a huge dash of golden-spirit...mixed together in a bowl and sprinkled with cinnamon (coz I know you love it) and garnished with just-ripe blueberries = Tinu didi. My love, my inspiration, my joy.

May the year ahead and the future see your life happier and more blessed than you can even begin to imagine. And may you grow to be the person that the world needs you to be. Have a lovely day, my jaan. I love you :D

*For old times' sake:
