Love, at last revealed!

It's been a long time since I have posted anything over here in my blog. Not that I didn't want to, but I couldn't! Call me crazy, lazy or anything you want, I just couldn't write a clean blog post on several topics I'd wanted to. :( But TODAY is a very important day of my life and I just DO NOT want to waste the opportunity by writing nothing about the day that it was!

Today, the 25th day of March, 2012 is a day to be written in red letters in my life. For today is the day I ultimately dared to propose my long time friend, love-crush, Ms N. You can also say that I only revealed to her about my feelings and the love I have towards her without actually knowing anything about how N feels about me. Nevertheless, I am feeling so very much in Love now! N could totally understand my feelings. But I felt she wanted to tell me about something which she couldn't tell today. But I am hoping that in a few days' time she tells me something that I am dying to hear from her, wanting to hear from her though all my senses have no belief in this hope thingy!  To a person who had gone out without any expectations but to have returned home with a smile and hope of making someone he has so dearly loved for so long his own and forever is a thing to be cherished for a long time. I shall surely enjoy this sweet moment for as long as possible, by protecting and nurturing it to the best of my abilities. :)

Oh Boy! I am feeling so much in Love today! I just love the day, the night, the air, the light, the language, the letters and words that make up the language, the nature, the world, the universe. I LOVE YOU, N.

What I did today has been the bravest thing I have ever done in my life till now! Just a few years back, I used to fear appreciating a person who truly deserved it. But today I am happy I have told N that I love her.

N is a very sweet girl. There are many simple things that I have liked in her. For e.g. I like her complaining when the coffee is too hot and when the same coffee turns cold after a while! I like her for her interests in movies, food and friends. I like her for narrating her life's bad experiences in a funny manner that brings about a smile on the face of the person listening to it. I like her when she, instead of telling the end of the story she is narrating from past 15-20 min, tells "...actually, I do not know the end of the story as I used to sleep-off by the time my grand mother finish narrating the story to me when I was a kid...(giggles)".

I also like her for the complex modern woman she is. N is witty, beautiful for me (;-)) and at the same time she is a responsible person and a dutiful daughter to her parents. She is intelligent and a good story teller ;-) At times I feel that she is a living drama queen since it seems to me that a lot of drama is involved in whatever she does! She is also empathetic and can read and understand a friend's mind without asking much questions! And she is also a little dumbo at times!:D

N is, for me, a 100% package who is everything I'd ever expected from my life partner + some cream and chocolate + some nutty toppings + a cherry at the top :D

My vocabulary doesn't allow me to write more than what I have already written over here without repetition of words, sentences and meaning. But my feelings towards N are 100% natural and unique and I feel no language ever created by a man can be enough to express them!

Here is a very beautiful song from movie Manasaare which is apt for the way I feeling now! The lyrics for the song can be found here.

I guess we were ahead of our time!!

Another one of those classic emails… which is both informative and brings back the memories of the good old days… Do read it to know what I am talking about.

In the line at the store, the cashier told the older woman that plastic bags weren't good for the environment. The woman apologized to her and explained,

"We didn't have the green thing back in my day."

That's right, they didn't have the green thing in her day.  Back then, they returned their milk bottles, Coke bottles and beer bottles to the store. The store sent them back to the plant to be washed and sterilized and refilled, using the same bottles over and over. So they really were recycled.
But they didn't have the green thing back her day.

In her day, they walked up stairs, because they didn't have an Escalator in every store and office building. They walked to the Grocery store and didn't climb into a 300-horsepower machine every Time they had to go two blocks.
But she's right. They didn't have the green thing in her day.

Back then, they washed the baby's diapers because they didn't have The throw-away kind. They dried clothes on a line, not in an energy Gobbling machine burning up 220 volts – wind and solar power really Did dry the clothes. Kids got hand-me-down clothes from their brothers or sisters, not always Brand-new clothing.
But she's right, they didn't have the green thing back in her day.

Back then, they had one TV, or radio, in the house – not a TV in Every room. And the TV had a small screen the size of a pizza dish, Not a screen the size of the state of Montana. In the kitchen, they Blended and stirred by hand because they didn't have electric Machines to do everything for you. When they packaged a fragile item To send in the mail, they used wadded up newspaper to cushion it, not Styrofoam or plastic bubble wrap.
But she's right, they didn't have the green thing back then.

Back then, they didn't fire up an engine and burn gasoline just to Cut the lawn. They used a push mower that ran on human power. They exercised by Working so they didn't need to go to a health club to run on Treadmills that operate on electricity.
But she's right, they didn't have the green thing back then.

They drank from a fountain when they were thirsty, instead of using a Cup or a plastic bottle every time they had a drink of water. They Refilled pens with ink, instead of buying a new pen, and they Replaced the razor blades in a razor instead of throwing away the Whole razor just because the blade got dull.
But they didn't have the green thing back then.

Back then, people took the streetcar and kids rode their bikes to School or rode the school bus, instead of turning their moms into a 24-hour taxi service. They had one electrical outlet in a room, not An entire bank of sockets to power a dozen appliances. And they didn't need a computerized gadget to receive a signal beamed from Satellites 2,000 miles out in space in order to find the nearest Pizza joint.
But they didn't have the green thing back then!

I GUESS WE WERE AHEAD OF OUR TIME!!!
