Introduction
- Since my childhood, I have this habit of giving surprises to my near and dear ones.
- I get a feel of joy and excitement while doing this.
- However, I feel happier and jubilant when others surprise me.
Where it was? and When was it? and Who you met?
- Six months back, I got a surprise from one of my friends.
- My friend Tina visited my place after a gap of 6 months. The surprising part was her new look with a considerable weight-loss.
Why were you surprised?
- Tina is an intelligent person, and I always seek flashes of inspiration from her.
- She was quite well-settled in her career. However, she used to feel depressed because of being obese.
- She tried very hard to lose weight without much success.
- Last year she left her job and our city too.
- When I saw her that day, it was nothing less than a good shock for me.
- With her new looks, I was finding it quite difficult to recognize her.
- I believed that she might have surrendered after trying so hard to lose weight.
- But that girl worked with determination, dedication and discipline.
- Post weight loss she started looking not only slim but also gorgeous.
- Another reason for being surprised was that for the last six years I too have been trying extremely hard to lose weight, But I haven’t got any success yet.
- So my best friend’s changed look was a delightful surprise for me.
