In my younger days I was in love with the concept of love. I could fall in love at the drop or a hat... love at first sight happened all the time. Sometimes I thought that I was in love with two people at the same time. Of course I never did anything about it. Just the heart flutter, shy glances, a little simple flirting and then I was done. There always came a day when I saw the guy in true daylight without my rose-tinted glasses and the magic was lost. I believed that that was how it was gonna be. So I settled for an arranged match and got engaged. Then the real magic happened. In true filmy style I fell in love with someone else. Someone who was also a really "good friend". Being with him, talking to him (running up telephone bills) made me happy. I dumped my fiance` just before my shaadi cards were to be printed (has only happened in like a dozen movies) and my dream love story was fulfilled (some parental opposition and other masala happened though)
Magic- does it even exist or is it all created by movies? I don't think so. I finally did find my magician, someone with whom the magic is never lost.
My magic happens when I meet my sweetheart every evening when he walks in the door. All day I may not miss him, although I think of him a lot. But, the moment he walks in the door, it's my magic moment. I cheer up and for a few moments I forget everything.
There's magic when I wake up early and watch him sleep. There's magic when I spot him from far in a crowd. There's a tiny little flutter when I suddenly see a new picture of him tagged by someone on Facebook.
We share our lives together including the mundane things like paying those phone bills, but the magical moments aren't lost. I hope we never lose them.
PS: This post is the result of watching "I hate Luv Storys" (horrible BTW) and listening to romantic songs.
PPS: All the stuff I wrote is true... well most of it.
