When you've wanted something so hard for so long that you can no longer recall how hard and how long you've wanted it. When you've dreamt and wished for something awake and asleep. When, after years and years of trying, you've given up all hope; but you still try once in a while.

And then, in one magical moment, it all just works, so easily and suddenly as if to mock your years of struggle and pain.

When Rakesh called out, "Sir, it worked", I didn't turn around to look immediately. I needed time to hush my beating heart. For those of you who've worked with me on this, you'll know what it is if you look hard. For those who haven't, let it be a mystery :)
