THE LOVE SONG...SING ALONG!!!!

Have you ever been in love? Now you don’t have to answer that question verbally. You can think of all the times (could be singular also) that you thought you were enveloped in this inexpressible bliss. Sometimes you could be blissfully unaware of the same.

A friend of mine, will of course not take his name as his identity needs to be protected, asked me to do something for him. Of course I’m all for love and so gladly did this for him. He plans to surprise the girl in question.. Now isn’t that lovely? How she reacts to it only god knows and for all of you interested in juicy tit-bits, you will be highly disappointed.
(Note to my friend – The inspiration of this post is you and your identity is strictly confidential and will not be divulged.)

Now in my life of 25 odd years, I have seen a lot of my friends in love. Even I have been in love but then when you are in love you can’t see yourself, can you? So that leaves you to pry on your friends. I have watched them doing stupid things, great sacrifices, buy gifts, throw abuses at each other etc etc etc. I totally believe that none of it is right or wrong it’s just hmmm….. It’s just is.

A person’s love story can be expressed in different song formats…the following is my favourite format

1. When boy and girl see each other for the first time….
Dard-E-Dil Dard-E-Jigar Dil Mein Jagaya Aapne....Pehle To Maein Shaayar Tha Aashiq Banaya Aapne
2. When they start going around…
I feel it in my fingers..I feel it in my toes..Love is all around me...And so the feeling grows...Its written on the wind...Its everywhere I go, oh yes it is...So if you really love me....Come on and let it show...You know I love you, I always will..My minds made up by theWay that I feel....Theres no beginning,Therell be no end..cause on my love you can depend
3. When they have their first fight, are not talking to each other but missing each other…

Baby when you're gone, I realize I'm in love..days go on and on, and the nights just seem so long..Even food don't taste that good, drink ain't doing what it should..things just feel so wrong, baby when you're gone..
4. Now point number 4 can have 2 cases hence
a. They live happily ever after
Apne rang gawaen bin, mere rang mein ghul jaoOhh..Apne rang gawaen bin, mere rang mein ghul jao....Apni dhoop bujhaye bin, meri chhao mein aa jao....Oh chalo yoon kare,Tum, tum bhi raho, main, main bhi rahoon....Hum, hum bhi rahein...Teeno mil ke saathchale...Saathi janam janam, u me aur hum
b. They don’t want to see each other’s face ever again
You bored me with your stories...I cant belive that I endured you for as long as I did...Im happy its over, Im only sorryThat I didnt make the move before you....
Well I just wanna say...I never really loved you anyway....No I didnt love you anyway
5. and yes there is always a fresh start (I’m a thorough optimist)
A little bit of Monica/Rohan in my life... A little bit of Erica/Joshua by my side... A little bit of Rita/Prasad is all I need... A little bit of Tina/Nikhil is what I see... A little bit of Sandra/Kiran in the sun.... A little bit of Mary/Sandeep all night long... A little bit of Jessica/Sukesh here I am.... A little bit of you makes me your man/babe

(the names can differ depending on who is singing it)

Please note all the names of boys used are in no way linked to me. They are names that are either husbands or boyfriends of some of my lovely girlfriends and I swear to all these girls that I have met the concerned boys only in their presence.

So you see I’m the eternal romantic. Whatever the conclusion of the story it is nice to have been the heroine of the film and as the heroine I can dictate terms, I say PACK-UP!!!!

Blog Interrupted!!!

Hmm…I started this blog spot more than a month back and the last entry is on 12th September. I have been busy at work (do I hear people laughing at this) and….blah blah blah…

Hay!!! Whom am I kidding…I travel with my laptop and can scribble any time I want. The point remains I just couldn’t think of anything to write. Even before starting to write this I penned few lines on the following:
The Rajarams (Assassinations by Economic Depression)
My ROUTINE travels to Pune and Delhi
Friends I have lost to this Crowded World
Jhoom Barabar Jhoom (Men will be Men)

Now the first topic was a sad discussion on something that though is all over the news but to which I don’t have a first hand account of and hence I don’t think I can judge it.

To spare all of you of how I traveled for my sales meetings to Pune and Delhi and spent the entire day presenting plans for the quarter III of 2008-09, I chucked writing the second routine post.

Now the third post started on these lines…. “I once had a friend.....I have not met this person for many years now and have had just tit-bits of his life through a bunch of common friends. I knew him for more than a decade and then suddenly lost all contact.
I could write such similar lines for a lot of my friends. I’m a pretty social person and normally surrounded by people but the fact remains that if I had to pen down the friends I have lost to this crowded world they would definitely be a sizable number.”

I soon realized after the first paragraph that this story showcased my inability to remain in touch with people and not the other way round and so I couldn’t write any further.

Though the last topic was definitely an interesting one but would have to be associated to people and may be several people. Now I’m absolutely against gossip and that too if the gossip has no names I think it’s absolutely sinful.

So you see my leave of absence is justified. It is not that I didn’t try…the trial was, to put it mildly, not very entertaining.
