What does it take?

Another Sunday morning, the much dreaded commute to work even before the sun shows up. Fortunately, the wait for the bus not made worse by the gale that was blowing the life out of me all of the past week. And for once I didn't have to wait more than 7 minutes for the bus to turn up. Comfortably seated, as usual praying fervently that my travel-sickness (my travel buddy) doesn't appear. Mmm..the commute isn't so bad today (Thank God), mediocre songs from the speakers above (which normally I curse as it plays deafeningly loud & terrible songs).

Hey, what was that, a familiar pleasant song...the title track from "Kal Ho Na Ho", one of Sonu Nigam's best. Automatically I start tapping my finger, swaying to the music, enjoying...I could also see someone else doing the 'drums with his knuckles', so much for good music. The song brought a nice smile to my face. Felt good.

As I was walking from the drop off point, the pleasant weather, reminded me of 31st Dec, 2005 (the best day in 2005 , in every sense), and I was humming the song all the way to my office...For a normally grouchy-early-in-the-morning person, all it took me to feel good inside was a simple, lovely song.
