Me before you

Its the morning, I haven’t slept the previous day and I watched me before you on my flight to Indonesia. Its 5th of May, Sunday. That time when we are building project Faceoff for GoJek. And now the emotions are bleeding and what best form to paint them than writing.

Dear you,

The following letter is from Me before I met you. You, who is somewhere out there and have no idea about me. But I know for sure that you are coming for me as fast as you can.

Its hard to see other people settling in the life when you are far away from the perfect setting. Finding the partner, caring and loving them, cherishing moments with them. Every time I see, I reinforce myself with my time would come too. But its maybe just too long now. I want to spend days at thousand island with you, bicycling, adventuring food and sports, watch the Spiti night sky searching for shooting stars, take care of a cute dog/cat, trek the Himalayas with mountain dogs along our side, get high and roam Goan streets, kayak the backwaters and talk about the cool life there, go into the wild and collect wild berries in Ooty, go on a road trip to different places on weekend, shopping at a shady mall, Building cool product while hopping cafes. I want to do all this again but with you by my side now.

I have found myself and am looking for you now.

I am just not sure till how long can I drive ‘I am on a mission car’ alone. Its alone at times in the night while driving. I want to do that but with you travelling with me on the front seat. While driving sometimes, I feel what’s the use of this much travelling when I don’t have anyone in the night to ask how was my day.

Regards

Me
