"Blow, blow, thou winter wind,
Thou art not so unkind
As man's ingratitude;
Thy tooth is not so keen,
Because thou art not seen,
Although thy breath be rude.
Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly:
Most friendship if feigning, most loving mere folly:
Then heigh-ho, the holly!
This life is most jolly.
Freeze, freeze thou bitter sky,
That does not bite so nigh
As benefits forgot:
Though thou the waters warp,
Thy sting is not so sharp
As a friend remembered not.
Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly:
Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly:
Then heigh-ho, the holly!
This life is most jolly."
...William Shakespeare ( from As You Like It)
Winter winds you are very unkind. Biting cold, your teeth are very sharp and painful. O! Cold how rude is your breath. But listen you are neither as unkind nor your bite is as painful as an ingratitude of man.
Sing with joy! Run like a child with happiness in the garden, because we have mastered the art of pretense in showing 'friendship' and reduced all 'love' to mere foolishness.
Bitter sky, you could not freeze me or bite me as hard as I was bitten when they left, after taking from me, all they could and never even thanked. My friend whenever you do not remember me it feels like a slap of that cold current on my face. A friendship not remembered is more painful than that sting.
Sing, dance and celebrate for 'their' cruel, cold and bitter nature to whom even cruelest of winter could not match. It ripped apart my faint heart. Even than my life is happy. I am in joy.

Kartikey, I never knew you are so pious from heart and sensitive at emotions. Be my friend.
Beautiful Kartikey.... Even with the harshness of this world and society, the good news is..... Joy is our true and natural, ever present state 💛
Wow Kartikey, this is emotional and heart touching peice..... Well all the worldly joy and peace is within and same is just gets spread over others and is felt back like soothing winter's breeze that kisses one's temple, cheeks and tip of one's nose �� - Shalini Agrawal

I kept thinking ..... I am scared of the word friend...u wrote everything I have always thought... beautiful.... But u know what I still haven't learned my lesson...I still want to feel the winter breeze every year all over again.
Excellent. You are a man of sentiments
Thanks dear. Friends.
Happy New Year...full of Joy.
I know. That's the difference between human beings and machines. Machines are often programmed not to repeat if it doesn't work. We however continue to love even if we don't receive it back.
Thanks
