23rd October

Another nice day to begin with.For a change i woke up early and dint sleep off back again (yeah that last 5 mins sleep of mine can go on for hours ).Anyways came to office at 2.Today has been a pretty boring day.i had no mood of doing the show today at all.One reason is that there were too many ads today on our station and that was driving me crazy.(like anyone would care alwa..thats the revenue we have).
I dint speak much on air coz i had no time to talk at all.Thats when this small boy called Rahul called me.Since i dint have to talk on air i thought i could spend time talking to him.He's a 12 year old boy who goes to tution and is back home exactly at 5 just to listen to my show (now u can see me smile showing my teeth also).He called me for a request and since i was not recording for requests yet i said i could call him back if he gave me a number.Thats when i heard the one rupee coin booth sound he wanted to say something but then the line got disconnected.I dint realise for my timepass i was talking to a boy who was talking to me through payphone.God knows how much money he would have spent talking to me and i could not even record his voice.I can still remember the disappointment in his voice.
Yeah it made me feel very very guilty(There are so many people who call and msg me and then i wil not be able each and everyone on air thats the reason i always give myself and it is the truth.Today i answered all the calls i got just in a slight hope that maybe one call will be of that small boy Rahul(yeah my fav name too) and i could play his request.
I waited and answered all the calls but then alas no such luck today for me.Today has been a good day for me in a way coz i recieved close to 1000 msgs for Ulta seedha fataafat (again another game where im giving cash this diwali).No good news is able to cheer me up.
By writing this im just trying to get that guilt out but also a slight hope that maybe since im accepting this he might just call.No idea when he will be able to get in touch with me again.I shall wait.
One more thing for today i've realised how much people spend just to talk to RJ's and i dont think we all realise it until just one 12 year old comes into our life naah.

Hummm This article really touched me, cause i to had a same kinda instance, when i finished the worship song in church, a small girl came to me and said "Anna... can i be your friend" i said happily sure ma... that small cute girl started crying and said "Anna since 3-4 months i wanted to say this" my heart broke i felt so unworthy.. these small hearts have great respect for every one... Akka, what you have wrote will make ppl understand there values in small innocent hearts... god bless
