Family is not always blood. Sensible responsible use of social media can gift us amazing souls to connect with, as trustworthy friends, sisters, brothers... Art, all forms of genuine art, bridges minds. Connects hearts. Identifies soulmates. One of the few beautiful souls am blessed with, is Deepa. We haven't met in person yet. But we already are meeting often through art. A wonderful friend, go-to shoulder, akka, Sakhi, mentor, and more. She sent one of my close-to-heart songs for my Birthday, in her soothing voice. It was a total surprise, and I cried in joy. Cathartic... The time, and love she gifts for me, is something I would treasure for life, in gratitude. We have stayed quiet for weeks too, without texts or voices notes. Vn is a huge boon. Have exchanged innumerable Vns, many of them mutually go-to notes now. It's not just love, laughter, tears, empathy, but firm tones too. Taking liberty to tell what I need to hear, than what I want to hear. We scold each other, argue, give tight slaps through uninhibited conversations that only have helped us evolve stronger, and better. Nourishing each other's soul. She has given me SO MUCH! (Oh yes, we have spoken over call just less than 10 times only, since we e-met in June 2019). There is honesty, and trust in our bond. Some instant soul-connect. Bonds must organically grow, I agree. But with very few souls, it is conspired by the universe with extra special warmth, truthfulness, and love, that in no time the bond Metamorphoses like a vintage song... Am happy , and proud to receive so much love. I know am lovable, too. :)
