One of my friends after reading my previous post asked me a question that most of the other readers have in mind, “Who is it?”
“No one”, I shrugged. And slowly the conversation drifted away in a different direction.
“Do you think our up-bringing could ever let us fall in love??”, she said. (‘Our’ refers to the typical middle class families where love is shunned.)
“Knowing my parents, yes. Cannot make a generalized statement though. But would you not agree that our parents have been changing along with the time? Well… surely not at the same pace, but they have.” was my reply.
“Would it be possible to be in love with some one here? ('here’, our office, we are colleagues as well)”, she had another question, a question that seems er... a li'l out of place for today’s time.
“Yeah!! Very much. What’s keeping you n me closed is not our parents’ attitude. It’s just that we haven’t come across that one person whom you can trust your life with. The day you do, you would automatically get the courage to face your fears about parents. YOU can fall in love, anywhere, anytime”
And while we talk this there’s this song that plays in the back of my mind.
“Someday someway
together we will be baby
I will take and you will take your time
We'll wait for our fate
cos' nobody owns us baby
We can shake we can shake the rock."

well i also thought so before i was in love.. initailly i also had the same questions.. but then as time went by everything is fine.. now my parents are very happy with my choice...
You think we should wait for love? Do you believe there is one true love for everybody?
Art: Envy you lucky lady!!!
Muse: Welcome to my blog!!
Wait for love?? Doesn't everyone do that?? (on the inside, you are always waiting for that one person who'd mean the world to you. No one would come before that persone.)
Affirmative for your second question. Some are lucky enough to get to spend a part or whole of their life with that person. Some others not so lucky.
Yeah, i guess all of us do wait for love on some level. But what do you do when nothing happens but you think it's time you got married anyway? Do you settle for less? Or do you console yourself saying that whoever you settled for could be the person of your dreams?
Muse, all I can say is perceptions differ. I guess settling for something less will never make you happy. You'd always have this thought, "I should have waited for just a li'l longer. Probably I hurried." I'm still waiting. I do not know how long I shall be able to continue, but at the moment I'm waiting.
And i guess it's better to let things go their way, as long as you see that is the way you want it. Trying to change it is a matter of choice, which you have to make.
