Most of my friends and parents say that i live an online life..i don't have a life beyond Internet...i don't like to go out much, hangout with friends etc..yes i am addicted to Internet...its a space where i travel,where i meet people make friends,share valuable information..i like it here..most of us know about orkut...its importance in one's life may differ..but I've lived some of the best moments here that i haven't in the world outside..no one can ever imagine how much it can get into your life and becomes an indispensable part..
but the question is why? i'll tell you the answer...i would like to share how i got one of the most precious gifts of my life which i never dreamt of
When i joined orkut it was like once in a day visit to check my scrapbook...all friends where whom i already knew and spent all my day in college with them..
but then slowly i learned about the communities and how people discuss various issues...chat share their views, contribute ideas etc... now once i was browsing through different profiles and randomly adding new friends rather sending friend requests, i like to make friends and meet new people...
i think this is where orkut helps...
it all started ..while i was browsing different communities...
i viewed the members list..and the profiles which seemed different...like this i came across a profile and added the guy as a friend! and he accepted but this is not about him either...it was when i was sitting at my workplace and was browsing
along side my work...i received a message which said I'm buddha's cousin...i am in class tenth,days went by we spoke regularly..she calls me dada,means elder brother in bengali she talked about cats,puppies...i am also fond of pets so i liked it..
she has a heart of a 5 year old which is pure gold..one day her elder sister told me that she's crying as her vacations are over and now she has to go back and there's no internet at her place so she cant speak to you so she's upset about it...i was stunned why would someone cry for a person whom one barely knows..
this came at such a point in my life where i was living hopelessly..there are situations where even your closest ones i.e your parents are also not with you
they were almost fed up of me and my decision making which they were always opposed to...but there was someone whom I've never met in my life...
came so close and was so concerned for me....she endlessly praised me which motivated me and helped me to get out of a shell...i always thought
i was useless..good for nothing guy...who can't satisfy even his parents..I would never make a good son..my father always says that am not good enough to wear my clothes properly in a decent manner..
then forget about the rest...but this cute little sweet heart sister of mine believes that I'm the best brother in the world...this brings me back to life..
it makes me feel that am at least of some worth...when i shared this to some of my friends i got all kinds of responses...i don't want to get into all that..as some were good others were worst... but i don't care...if someone gets a gift like this... then everyone will be addicted to orkut...all i can say is thanks orkut...
