Everybody talks about love and valentine's day.
So why not I too talk about it :)
What all do i remember associated with this day?
I got to know about it only when I was in the college, but all I cared at that time probably was the nice songs/movie that was played on the TV.Later on I got so busy that I never realized it until I noticed a difference in the google home page.
Somehow it always used to happen that i had a deadline on the next day or the same day and I end up managing time working on campus and doing the assignments till the last minute.
After the studies too, it was always a yet another day for me.
After I started work,I started noticing that people started leaving work early on feb 14th and I just used to smile that it was a sweet gesture that people atleast take off sometime to spend with each other on this day.
While there are lot of people who protest the celebration of Valentine's day, I do not know if there is anything to do with "culture" thing.
Not that there isn't love between two ppl if they don't tell each other about the same on Valentine's day.But there are always some simple things which we appreciate and why not have an occasion to make each other feel special?
Youngsters are probably getting misled, but who is really sure about love?
It does bring me a lot of laughter sometimes when I hear about some stories which my couleagues told me .
Last year, in the middle of the day towards the evening, two of my couleagues and I took a break from work and went to the cafetaria for coffee and we were having a general conversation on what is love ,how does it feel to be in love. My couleague's cell phone rang and someone from her previous office who had not been in touch from ages called her and asked her "Are u married" , she said No and he asked "are u engaged" she said no and he goes "I love you"
She just screamed out "Are u crazy?"
It still brings a smile when I think about that incident and how much we laughed about it.
It has been a yet another day for me so far in my life and today too.Perhaps ,because I never dreamt to feel special and perhaps coz I find more happiness in giving than receiving.
But given a chance, what is that I would really expect?
A nameless longing to go away in life and have a warm feeling of belonging. His being there for me and his loving touch....I guess.
Can this ever be true?Perhaps!!
[Whats wrong in dreaming and whats wrong in anticipating ? :) ]
Happy Valentine's day !!
