Will history repeat itself???

By that time she knew she was in love with him, her best friend. She was 23 then.

Freshly heartbroken because the girl he loved preferred to marry the boy of her parent's choice.

She was there for him, a shoulder to cry on, a patient ear, trying to cheer him up.

A couple of months passed. Her best friend invited her to a party. There she saw the girl for the first time, a new entrant in the group, falling all over her best friend. He looked embarassed but did not discourage her. She asked him whether she is his new girlfriend. He answered in negative. "Then why so much intimacy?" she asked. He said she's like that with all the guys. She kept quite.

After a month, he introduced his new girlfriend to her, the same girl from the party. She let go of her best friend.

She is 31 now and in love again. Will history repeat itself??

Does it sound like "Bridget Jones Diary"??!!

Listen to your intuition!!!

My rainy sandals were looking at me longingly…..my umbrella was trying to catch my attention. But I just ignored them. Had to leave immediately to reach office on time. My mind was nudging me, pick up your umbrella, but I ignored that too.

Was dozing in the train when the lady next to me said “Thank God I am carrying an umbrella today”. I opened my eyes to see heavy clouds pregnant with rain, just ready to deliver. I cursed under my breath and at the same time it started pouring…..

Reached VT station to be stranded among 500 other commuters who were not smart enough to carry an umbrella, just like me…..the rain just wouldn’t let up for another half an hour…..finally when it got bored of harassing his unsuspecting victims, it stopped….

Moral of the story is LISTEN TO YOUR INTUITION!!! Even if you are late to work!!

Love or Obsession??!!

Yesterday my brother was watching a Japanese movie with dubbed English sub-titles. I have no clue what the movie was about. Only I could catch the last shot where the lead actor, a General in some Imperial army is asking the lead actress, a warrior in the enemy camp to go away with him…..to be free as the wind…..

She does not reply, stands quietly with her head bent. The General waits for a few minutes, then gallops away on his horse…..away and away he goes, through jungle, through open fields and woods….and then he halts….just waiting there….

The actress is still standing with her head bent, then raises her head with determination, mounts her horse and follows the General…..through jungle, through open fields and woods….. she is so close to reaching her love when suddenly……a knife coming her way, aimed at her heart. She is alerted on time, uses her sword to divert the knife, succeeds….but alas!! There were two and not one knife…..one reaches the target, right on the heart….

She stumbles and falls off her horse….gasping for breath…..injured and bleeding….

Her attacker appears…..looks at her struggling to her feet and says “why were you going to him? You know that I love you. If you cant be mine, you can not be with anybody else either.”

The General turns back on his path…..galloping with wind, trying to reach his beloved. He finds her, almost dead!!! He holds her close to him, trying to talk to her, to revive her…..she whispers in his ears “turn around, behind your back”…..the same person tries to attack him with his sword but the General is quick to defend himself…..he understands the scenario……and asks the attacker “If you love her why kill her?”

Indeed!!! What is love?? How do we interpret love?? What is the essence of love??

Love is about giving selflessly and not about being selfish…..about wanting the people you love to be happy and not killing them because they didn’t make you happy….

Can anyone be more sad than the person trying to confine love in his possession???

Well, if you want to know how the movie ends….the girl asks the General why has he come back?? He shouldn’t have….and the General replies “I have come back for you, my love”….the girl dies with a smile on her face, for she had found true love…..
