Longing
![Drabble_thumb[1]](http://shilpaagarg.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/Drabble_thumb11.png "Drabble_thumb[1]")
The Portuguese call it saudade: a longing for something so indefinite as to be indefinable. Yes, that’s how I feel.
My heart, my whole being, longs for you. I want you to come back. Can’t you see that without you my life has come to a standstill! I feel so lost, confused and lonely. Can you sense my restlessness?
I’ll do anything to have you back. I am counting the minutes until you do.
Yes, I am that desperate. This emptiness is killing me.
I need… YOU. Please come back and I’ll never let you go again, my internet connection!

Aah! Dont ask… have experienced this very recently and connect button of the datacard, if it had hands would have come out of the laptop and given a whack on my head for torturing it to no end! 😀

Haha…I totally empathise. It’s hard without WiFi! In fact, it’s now part of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs! 😀
July 17, 2014 1:48 am|
Yes, Maslow’s hierarchy of needs should be revised now and WiFi with a Smartphone and/or Laptop should feature at the bottom of the pyramid!
