But today, a memory popped into my head like those random memories do. Almost about ten years ago, I had gone to a PR agency for a job interview. The first round was this elaborate exam (I'm sure I will find the name of the test if I google it)but the exam was more of a personality test. (It had mathematics, logic and reasoning based questions along with situation based questions.)

Autumn leaves on a tar road. Bharatnatyam on a plate. Drums in a band. Letters received. Black and white photographs, packed in a box. Lumps of sorrow, sadness. Laughter. So much of it. Kindness.

Love to me is. Love these. Love actually. Love.
