I was in the subway in New York City just last November feeling sorry for myself over several wishes that did not materialize. I was several stops to my destination, and as there’s no signal underground, decided to de-clutter my phone by deleting some of the 10,000++ photos that I no longer needed. Somehow, I ended up scrolling to way early up this year and was given photogenic flashbacks of places I’d traveled to, people I’d met, things I’d done this year and experiences I’d had this year– and it shook me back to reality and reminded me how lucky and blessed I am. I had forgotten about all of this because I had gotten caught up in my sorrows.

The truth is, life will always have its ups and downs but self-pity is the most useless emotion. Life is also happening so fast that it’s important to look back (photos help us do that alot), reflect and give thanks to all the blessings in our lives. As they say, you need to look back sometimes in order to move forward. So for my annual end of the year post, I look back to one of my most favorite

Hey Karan,

Look what I found!

It’s a picture of you that I took when you were here in Singapore for the IIFA awards 2004.

Look at you. Good-looking, suave, sophisticated, humorous, not fat, not bald, rich, famous, successful.

Is it really any wonder then that when your name comes up, most guys throw their hands up in the air and scream "Gay!!!!" as if it’s a bad thing?

I guess guys are more freaked out at the thought of two gay guys together than girls are about two gay girls. Or is it that gay people make guys uncomfortable? Insecure? That they may become ‘one of those’ if they hang out in gay company?

All this talk about you and Shah Rukh annoys me. Maybe you guys are a couple, maybe you aren’t, who cares? What’s that got to do with anything, really? And in any case, whatever happened to strong friendships within the same gender? Do they not exist anymore? Now you can’t be nice to your friends who are of the same gender as you without being labelled ‘gay’?

But I don't care what they say about you. I like you. I really
