The Unknown Perfect

Love is all around me...that reminds me of Billy Mack when he strives hard to get it right in Love Actually "I feel it in my fingers..."....haha... that is my most favourite scene of the movie apart from ofcourse the romantic scenes. :)

This phrase takes me back to the time when everyone around me was falling in love and I was busy reading Mills n Boons. Naah! before you reach any conclusions, I was not spinning an imaginary love story around me....lol. I was just too fascinated with the perfect love stories and perfect people.

As I grew up, I realized there are no perfect people and no perfect love stories. It is all about how you see perfection in the most imperfect situations and people and they turn out to be in your favour.

"How can a person spend his/her whole life with one person and not get bored of it? I get bored of people so easily." : I used to ask my mom as a teenager when we discussed marriage and love (Not that I have changed now...lol). Her initial reaction made me think that she was shocked that how cud GOD do THAT to her, give her a daughter like me... hehe. Gradually, she realized I am not THAT bad. :D

I still ask myself this question but then I see people around me who are not some romantic characters straight out of movies like HEER RANJHA or ROMEO JULIET but they are very ordinary people but the way they live their lives together makes them special.

I believe that near-to-perfect love stories do exist and they exist in this very very ordinary world we live in but we fail to notice them.You just need to open your eyes to them.

When I see Dad getting up early to fix breakfast for Mom as she is the first one to leave for work or when I see Mom going that extra-mile to make sure Dad is comfortable and he has something to eat even when she is away, I ask myself " Will I ever be able to love someone this deep, this strong?".

When I see my best friend giving up on her taste of movies and try n learn more about sports coz she wants to be a part of her husband's happiness and his enthusiasm for sports I tell myself "This is how you love" and when her husband takes her out for movies even when he hates to go thru the sobbing romances, I smile to myself.

When I witness my maid working hard so she cud pay for her husband's medical bills and when she makes plans to cook something really special every Sunday for him, I feel so touched. Their love is not influenced by money or materialism, it is pure love.

In their own special way, they love their partners and they sacrifice, adapt and sometime do not express, yet their love-stories never get penned down by anyone and published.

Although my MB addiction is not going to end soon, but I wonder when I have so much love around me, who needs MBs...!! ;)

I donno why I wrote this one... waisey bhi I hardly ever know why I write what I write... Just a sudden thought today made me realize I live amongst people who define love so PERFECTLY. I feel blessed I have them around me, coz they keep my faith in love intact. :)

DAMN! Almost all the guys wud have gone to sleep by now reading this.LOL No Apologies, guys. ;)
