'TRUE LOVE'



It is 4.15 in the morning and I haven't caught any sleep as usual. I tried sleeping by reading- didn't work. Then I proceeded to watch a movie -It's a Boy Girl Thing, a movie which I have watched umpteen times just because of my total love for the movie. It stars Samaire Armstrong and Kevin Zegers - both of whom I love dearly. Well this movie features in the list of my absolute favourites. It is the story about the protagonists Nell Bedworth and Woody Deane and how they embark upon a journey which starts with them hating each other and ending with them finding love in each other. The ending is actually the beginning of their relationship. It is a story involving a body swap, which in fact is the main reason for the hero and the heroine of the movie coming together.

I am an absolute sucker for romantic movies and novels. And be it any book or film, I see my reflection in the heroine of the story. Same goes with this movie(minus the body swap though!). I love the way Woody confesses his love to Nell and love the way they fall in love. Any story which has the hero and heroine madly falling in love enthrals my interest. All the romantic movies and novels end up inciting a mixture of feelings in me. For one, I feel very happy thinking about it but on the other hand, it just makes me feel how drained and empty my life is. My mind knows that there is no 'perfect' person for anyone but my heart yearns for one.

This has been the case since a very long time. And everytime I watch such movies, it makes me go crazy. Of late, this craziness has gone to such levels that I have convinced myself that my 'true' love is not in India but abroad!!!

why do people need to theorize that their 'true love' is abroad. its getting difficult to procure a Visa in these recession times :P

Unknown said...

@ Tulika:

@Mad Blogger:
Thank you for your comments...They are precious...

@ Ezkiel:
Well, it is just a feeling... If I find him/'her' here, then no need for the visas... And I am sorry but I don't know someone who follows the book of Ezekiel... And I can't even get clues because your profile is blocked... SO will you be please kind enough to reveal yourself to me :)

its funny coz u befriended me on Orkut just a while ago , and you have something waiting for you there as well...

Unknown said...

by the way Ezekiel is not a reference to any book , infact its Ezekiel 25:17 and is the famous paraphrase from the movie Pulp Fiction.

u have to watch it :P

u don't have to convince yourself

Destiny makes the world go round and karma is the fuel

when love happens you yourself find the person so perfect
love changes your vision the way you percieve things
nothing changes but everythings does

its a blessing in disguise
