This piece was long overdue, but such is life friends… It might not be
wrong to say that I just got a glimpse of what my life is going to be for the
next 3 years and believe me, I have a gut feeling its going to be a lot worse
than that.
There are many questions in life which do not have a particular and
accurate answer, which make you feel absolutely clean bowled, and you keep on
wondering where did the ball come from and how the hell did it hit the wicket.
Well, one of many such questions is the quintessential cliché , to which nobody
until now has been able to answer appropriately- How do
you know you are in LOVE ?
A lot of great people have not been able to come to a conclusion as to what it really is, so I
am not even going to try. In fact, the
last time someone asked me that question, my answer was-
‘You know its love when all the songs make sense !’
Maybe its when someone’s presence is as essential as the air you breathe
in or the food that you eat. Maybe when your hypothalamus just forgets to send
you the much needed hunger signals because it is so clearly preoccupied in
thinking about something else. Maybe its when you feel that the compliments of
a thousand people are worthless until you get that one nod of appreciation from
somebody. But you know what, I think it
is all these things and much more.
I am not a great believer in love at first sight. I know many people
would beg to differ but according to me, the whole point of loving someone is
to love yourself in the context of that person. You start looking at yourself
differently. You suddenly come across that side of your personality which was
hidden somewhere. A side which is
willing to take risks, willing to lose anything and everything for someone’s
sake. For a sane person, it might seem absurd but its perfectly logical for a
peson in love to confess to someone that ‘I cannot function without you. My
life comes to a standstill without you.’ It takes immense courage to be able to
say to a person that you are their only ray of hope for surviving in this
ruthless game called life. And believe me people, you can never say that to a
person whom you don’t trust or whom you don’t know.
Howmuchever
I think about it, I have never been able to understand how people love logically.
Because as far as I know, where love is concerned, all practicality,
rationality and logic goes out of the window. It is just pure impulse. No
logic, no calculations. Love is definitely not their cup of tea for people who
are caught up in their own egos, self respect and dignity. You just have to
waive aside all these things for the time being to be able to really experience
the purity of that emotion.
I don’t know
why people booze and do drugs. Fall in love instead….! Not necessarily with a
person. Books, music, cricket, dancing, painting….Love something or
someone….make it your passion, be obsessed about it. Believe me, it gives you
such a high, which is incomparable to any drug on this earth. The timing is
never right, you have to make it perfect.
Hope you all
find something or someone to love…
Best of luck…!!!
Hope to write soon again,
Good
bye, take care,
