Surprising someone:-A pleasant surprise for you too!!


Yesterday, two of my college friends had their birthday. As the college was off for summer holidays, all of us were at our homes. So, our group thought of giving them a surprise(as was the ritual at the birthday of each of our friends) by wishing them in group through a conference call. A couple of days prior to the 3rd, I started getting in contact with all the members of our group planning about how to make the surprise a perfect one. At last, the day came.As soon as the clock struck 12 , I called up both of them one after the other(all the other members were already patched up in conference). Really,I didn’t need to ask them how they felt about it, their voices reflected their feelings. It was just like being at college again, sitting in the canteen, gossiping while gobbling samosas and drinking Pepsi. After we hung up the phone(after about 40 minutes with my phone balance becoming lighter by a good amount ;-)), i don,t know why, but i felt really good. Giving the surprise made me feel happy because I was a part of something that made two people feel really special, even though for a small period of time, on the biggest day of their life. This feeling was something that left me feeling fresh and energetic for the rest of the day which came as a pleasant surprise for me.
So folks, next time you get a chance to surprise someone, do it. Trust me, It feels real good...
