My Gibberish on Love..

They say love will find you in the most unexpected times..in the most unexpected places..in the most unexpected people..when you are least looking for it. And its all true. You can never predict true love. It will happen to you when its destined to be. You might find it in people who are total strangers to you..you might find it in people whom you have known your entire life..you might find it in people you had once known..some long lost souls you never thought you will get to meet again..It happens in the most 
unconventional ways..But when true love knocks at your door..you just know it..its as if you have suddenly come across the missing piece of your heart..and that's why and how you recognize it..And something within tells you its meant to be..its exactly what you have been desperately searching for in all the wrong places. You suddenly know you are going to trust this person with your heart and soul..no matter what. Its actually terrifying to face the truth..but you know from the very first moment that you are going to have to face your fears this time. And this person will be your driving force.Your greatest Friend at all times. True love isnt always about the constant fluttering you feel in your stomach..the intense excitement..the euphoric happiness..In fact, it is the most calming, embalming, serenely happy feeling that you are going to experience in your lifetime. It feels like home. True love isnt suffocating..its the most liberating experience and it will always end up bringing the best out of you. For you know this person is going to support you, trust you, respect your every choice, and above all, love you without a doubt. Of course you will fight, get into doubts and misunderstandings...feel the pain that love brings with it... YES..but your love is going to give you the strength to work through every hurdle. Not because you have to..but because you want to.


For, you will just know when you find that ONE imperfectly perfect person.

For, you are never going to be afraid anymore,even though its going to be damn hard.

For, you are going to be each other's life support,each other's oxygen.

For, this time, you are going to find beauty and perfection within your own absolutely imperfect soul.

For, you are meant to be. 

For, this is indeed going to be your HOME.

Friendship!!!

           I don't know exactly what prompted me to write this note on friendship, but i guess it needs no particular day or occasion to celebrate friendship..Sharukh Khan,in a memorable dialogue from a memorable movie, once said to Kajol "love is friendship". Yes, I believe that with my heart and soul.I mean if I say that someone is my friend, I must invariably love that person. and it is the same the other way round..I cant love someone completely and surrender myself to that person unless I am sure that person understands me completely and is my very best friend.
           Friendship is one of the most beautiful of all relationships and that needs no mention. Not only do I cherish and nurture this relationship,I do all I can to preserve it as well.For it is hard to find a real friend, but it is harder to hold on to them. Life has given me plenty, but at the same time it has taught me lessons with such cruelty that I will never forget or perhaps recover from.
          There have been people who have come into my life like a puff of fresh air,painted a rainbow in my slow motion black and white movie and put their feet down real hard so as to leave a deep permanent mark And then, they left just as suddenly as they had appeared, leaving behind memories and a plethora of unanswered questions, leaving me wondering what went wrong. And it happens to all of us at some point of time or another..You spend days and nights crying with the feeling of humiliation filled with guilt and grief that you had let them see the vulnerable side of you, trusting them which you ought not have done. But really, how could you have known that they are only pretenders of sympathy and compassion? 
            Yet again, there are friends who you know are there, will always be there, despite the fact that you haven't spoken in years..business of life has led you to two different paths and caused you to drift apart.They don't mind if you don't call, they don't mind if you even forget their birthdays, they are still there, like a rock wall for you to lean on..They are just happy..simply because you exist.. and because they know wherever you are, you will always be there with them whenever they are in need or even not..because they know that they have a permanent place in your heart..because you love them..And yes they have never even considered leaving you even though they have seen your most wretched face..often red with anger or disappointment.at other times with tears of hopelessness streaming down. 
         Every person hardly finds one such person in life..but God has blessed me with quite a few..And to these friends, I bow.
