This is Ranjith from kuwait...!

Dear Anil,

Your suggestion of registering names in Yahoo to form a group of friends to share our camaraderie is sheer dusting off old excitements.We face the crude reality of separation. Still we yearn to stick on to the liveliness of our class room in Press Club.

Bringing up such topics with regard to the necessity of reviving our love for each other in a cyber allotted space is a dream waiting to bloom.Your meeting in Press Club after six long years is a happy news. But you kept away the matters you chanted, discussed and babbled without elaborating those in your mail. A depiction of your talks would have made your mail more appealing. Give me the Minutes of your Meeting.

Did you feel my spirit roaming around you all that time? Your references on the six years' growth of plants to trees, in front of Press Club, created a mandatory nostalgic mood to your description of friends' meeting after a long time. Trees grow upwards, I mean, all the trees in front of our School of Journalism. What sort of philanthropic growth have we been obtaining since our passing out in 2000?

We had one K.R.V. Sir who had been scolding us mindlessly but cravingly asking us to improve through his routine expression '' Meet me''. Salutations to his sanctified memories. I make a conscious pass by, whenever I come on leave to India, through the Press Club Road, to kindle my respect towards KRV sir and love towards all my classmates belonging to both morning and evening batches.As you said, we WERE a great team, absolutely in its sense, due to our attachment towards each other.

We ARE a great team, truthful to its core, in the backdrop of rekindling our love towards each other either by a call or through an SMS or through our e-mail correspondences. We WILL remain as a great team, though we may not always appear as physical images to our friends again, by our sincere inner expressions of wishing the very best to our pals and silently, happily enjoying their growth. Notable contributions have come from Ramesh's part to knit the web of comradeship. He is the master of infinite interactions.

Let historians praise him as friendship incarnate. Anil, your perception of a possible fading out of the colourfulness of comradeship, thus demanding from the very start of our day of separation about forming a friends' group and still doing the same squirrel's job positively and energetically, is praiseworthy. You need a generous pat for your efforts. Students of the millennium batch are dispersed all over the world by the Institute of Journalism. Some have fallen on the right ground bearing the best fruits. Those remaining also try to make the best output in their own respective fields.

Putting aside traits of male chauvinism, may I ask you about our female-friends? Beginning with 'A', I ask you about Angel Rani to end with enquires about 'Z' 's Zoma Viswanath. I remember Gayathri Devi, Cithara Paul, Manjusha M.R., Jeena Elizebeth George, Ronnie Thomas, Sheena Stephen, Sumi Thoppil Thomas, Smitha Namboodiri, Archana Pillai, Jyothi Vijaykumar, Nisha M.V., Jeeva Jayadas, Sandya V.L. and many other friends who come in between the aforementioned two, in the attendance-register.

Annie has achieved one of her most desirable goals and we were its witnesses last year. I have contacts, though occasionally, with ever-smiling Smitha Paili. Once again, my congratulations to Prashanth, Ramesh, Shantan V. Nair, Manoj, Sreejith Kumar and yourself, Anil, for the idea to have a meeting in front of Press Club, thus inspiring others for its genuine imitation.

After all, it is the liveliness of love that binds us together. And that is why you demandingly prompt all of us to form a group in Yahoo.

I express my willingness herewith to such a group-formation, proposing my suggestion of naming the group 'The Tent of Love' or to be more precise 'The Tent'.

May Jesus bless you.

Lovingly

Ranjith John(Kuwait)
