Hey Blogdosts! Ssup??
Today is 26th January, which is another way of saying that today marks another year of our country's incredible patience and breeding corruption.
Wish you all a Happy Republic Day....
The independence factor is certainly on a downturn as many of us end up working for our foreign customers like just another day(to deliver the expectations from the management).
It sometimes makes me wonder it's like a mad jungle and how i keep from going under.
Well i made my way to ensure that i do not follow the suit by working on this day unlike any other Indian gentlemen who adjust to realize the dream of first visit to the USA...
My day began with my daily exercise regime at Jogger's park in our locality.
A nice and clean track is built encircling a green ground. The track length is around 1 km with pretty good plantation and thick greenery on its side. It is a beautiful place. For jogging and walking there may not be a better place than this. Now I am enjoying the mornings every holiday in this Joggers’ Park.
Today it was the center of celebrations and a prominent MP was invited for the ceremony as chief guest.A very long wait, ultra boring procession along with a terrible speech was the attraction of the day.
too-much-of-a good thing was my brief interaction with school children and it was so satisfying ..
The Flag Salutation followed by the National Anthem approved our unflinching loyalthy to our Country.
Back Home, there were more celebrations as our neighbours were celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary.
On greeting the couple, they said "Our celebration is another way of saying that today marks the 25th year of my wife's incredible patience and longsuffering." :)
I uttered - 25 years down the line, the phrase will almost be the same, just that wife will be replaced with Husband...
By afternoon, everybody came out of their homes to celebrate the anniversary.
Amid so many adults and elderly people... my eyes stopped at a girl ... a very energetic and notorious 5 year old girl. ... I had no clue how she will blow me away with her name. Ignorant of this, I went to her, took her hand and enquired her name.
Her reply blew me away at least for a while. I made her repeat herself again and again I don't know why? or may be I know... I was hearing it after a long gap, two years or even more ....
Perplexed she said - "I am going to my friends to play. I'll worry about you tomorrow" :) and took Her hands Off My Hands!
Something borrowed my Attention and soon i went off on a tangent ...
I was alone watching the girl playing .. beyond her fears .. beyond her years .. in so much love with herself
A clear resemblance could be seen by now and i was back in the arms of my past~
She reached out to me asking for help.As always I offered to help her in anyway.
She wanted to serve at the sweet counter which was well above her height. She had been bugging everybody for this.
I took her to the counter and stood by her side as she cheerished her success. Yes, it looked important to her and the level of happiness she drew by serving others shook my sense out.
I loved getting the moments each time she discovered her tiny hands dip in sweet bowl.
I cuddled her and with my heart into it, the cuddles felt really genuine.
I kept troubling her by repeatedly asking her name and she continued replying with her most disgusting expression :)
By now, I am sure all of us have realised that the girl/girl's name reminded me of my experience with my first girlfriend, who I had hoped live to be my last.
I never was so happy before as I was with her.
When you are in love your bliss begins. I had no doubt that where there is much love there will be much to love, and where love is scant faults will be plentiful.
I always thought - If there is only one good girlfriend in India, I am the man who put the ring on her finger and long may she wear it.
Today all people around me bother to get me married but to me it's very clear -
It takes a special woman to help her husband navigate those currents without doing injustice to either loves.
.. and until i find one such .. i won't ...Don't you worry as there's no end to the possibilities! :)
There is no absolute end to a girl's diary and a girl's wish list .. she came up with another wish .. This time she wanted to have the flag i had got this morning from the park but in the most effortless way with least number of pleases to offer.
She demanded I go to my home and get the flag for her as she can't leave her game half way. Believe me, she made this deal look so genuine and fair .. The World is too clever for me! :)
For some reason i can't explain i wanted her to come home with me even if it was just to take the flag ..as it was a dream we saw together!
I got to the door before her, opened and held it for her.
She felt happier after having her wish fulfilled again.
But again don't expect a Thank You Please! :)
I escorted her back to the door. She insisted me to join her downstairs but my response almost implied the nearing end of our journey together. :)
I caught her in my eye... and she was gone!
Whatever happened will never happen again & whatever we lived we’re not going to live again. But nevertheless, it left inside us something ; whatsoever it is . It left us something unique . An experience , an emotion or even a lesson .
She is a great gift to me and I praise our gracious God for the privilege of calling her my girlfriend.
P.S: I'm sure all my people are going to complain at me for recalling this all over again ... but Guys, she deserved this! :)
n I Love you all !!!

Lucky will be the girl who'll marry you....
ReplyDeleteand i bet u, u too will get a chance to say tht you r lucky:)
Of course there is no end to possibilities...Keep smiling:)

ReplyDeleteI was smiling all along. And yes, like you said, there are no end to possibilities. I, too, thought at a point that I'd rather live by myself than let someone hurt me in any which way...and there, I found my soul mate in my best friend :)

You're amazing at expressing feelings so close to your heart through the most innocent epitome..:) I read the lines "I had no doubt that where there is much love there will be much to love, and where love is scant faults will be plentiful".
