From Friendship to Love - A Dicey Route 2008-04-22 06:25:00 Hi friends! After posting my last blog, I felt a sense of numbness for some time. What is this that I’m writing? Do I really think of Rio in a way that is something more than a friend? After putting my thoughts down, I have become more conscious about that part of my mind which has remained dormant until now. The liking, the feel-good aspect associated with Rio has suddenly come to the fore. When I met him again over the weekend, well, I hate to admit it, but I was feeling a little awkward to look him in the eye. I felt that he could read everything in my eyes and that was something I did not want.I’ve no clue what he feels for me. If he finds out I’m looking at him differently, he may feel cramped. That would definitely have an adverse effect on our friendship. I’m not willing to Read more:Friendship

Love – A Moment, An Experience 2008-04-25 05:53:00 Every moment has the power to change your life forever. Life, like a line, is a conglomeration of these moments. Though life is made of moments, there are some life-defining moments which prove to be turning points or change the course of your life forever. I am talking about it because I have just realized that my life has been touched and turned on its head forever: by Rio.We were at the Imax Dome to catch a movie. We didn’t decide what we’d watch. Ultimately we watched nothing and spent the time chatting. Rio wanted to buy something for my pup Scarlett. The shop was round the corner at the mall. He asked me to wait and before leaving, said, “Don’t go away!” Very simply said, very casually put. But the only thing that hit me was – will I be able to go away? From him, from his Read more:Moment
Love and Trust – Incompatible? 2008-04-24 10:51:00 A few months back, Andrea and John had a bad fight over an issue that seemed trivial, but gained mammoth proportions after a certain period of time. John got a little possessive over a colleague of Andrea. John thought the guy (for the life of me I cant remember the name) was being too cozy with her. Though she tried her best to convince him that his doubts were baseless, John didn’t see reason. Ultimately Andrea had to give him a lot of quality time and made him understand things. Only then did things fall into place and love was back with a bang!I’m talking about this now because the other day I was reading letters written to a magazine’s ‘agony aunt’ column. All sorts of people have spitted out their mistrust and venom against their partners. The theme of all the letters seeme
Kiss Day - The Turning Point? 2008-04-28 05:10:00 Hi friends! How was your weekend? Mine was very exciting in a strange way. Andrea and John were out together and I had the place to myself. I could not meet Rio because he had some work and had to go out of town. He promised to meet me today. When he said that, I took it casually. After I put the phone down I realized that it would be Kiss Day then! Since that moment, my heart is fluttering like a scroll of paper under a fan. I talked about a turning point in my last post. Kiss Day 2008 could be mine!Since I started feeling something special for Rio, I wanted an opportunity to tell him what I feel for him. Running parallel to this was the question of denial from his end and the adverse effect it might have on our friendship. But now I have decided to address the issue directly and give him
Love – The Disappointment 2008-04-29 04:00:00 Have you read T.S.Eliot’s famous poem ‘The Hollowmen’? The quote that is haunting me the moment I begin to write this post is: “This is the way the world ends / Not with a bang but a whimper.”That is exactly what happened to me on Kiss Day! Rio got caught up in some work and I had to spend the day cooped up in office, He didn’t even call the entire day. I’m really upset and full of desires that usually result in manslaughter. I didn’t call him up either. It was his plan to meet; it was he who canceled it after arousing a thousand expectations in my mind.Where did he go? He has never done anything like this. Andrea and John painted the town red, partying. That made me extremely jealous, though I was equally happy for them. But I could not understand Rio’s sudden change of Read more:Disappointment
Love – Lost Before The Start? 2008-04-30 02:58:00 Rio called some time back. He was apologetic but somehow I felt that he was not that sincere about it. I am still very upset but there's hardly anything that I can do. I asked him if we can meet on May Day. He declined tactfully. I wonder what's going on! The whole thing is so ridiculously frustrating, I feel like laughing!My instincts are telling me something new has happened in Rio's life. Is it another woman? Though I'm scared to admit that, I've been getting these signals for a couple of days now. Maybe I'm reading too much into it. But whenever I say this to myself, the question simultaneously comes: am I really reading too much into it or am I side-tracking a glaring fact? The reason for this is that I cannot bear to lose the gamble of love before I had a chance to throw the dice. I Read more:Start
Love – The Bolt from the Blue 2008-05-02 03:03:00 Rio and I did meet on May Day. He was extremely happy to see me. And was he excited! He tried his best to small-talk and asked how I have been, but it was very clear to me that he was plainly preparing ground and waiting to say something that was foremost on his mind. Eventually I could not take the suspense anymore and asked, “Ok, what is it?” He breathed a sigh of relief and shot, “I’m in love!”My heart skipped a beat. I looked at him, astonished and stupefied. What was he saying? Oh God, let it be me! The only word I could stutter out was “What?” And then the blow came. “Stephanie,” he said and looked dreamily into the dark sky. Thank Heavens he looked away as he said it. I’m sure my expression on hearing a different name would have given everything away.I could not
Love- Reflections of a Teacher 2008-05-05 02:30:00 The sudden jolt that I got from Rio has left me a little shattered. I was finding it hard to focus on my work. The same state continued in guitar class. Phillip noticed that I was distracted. He has the uncanny ability of reading a person’s mind. He stopped mid-way and put away his guitar. He was looking directly at me. I got flustered; I was sure it was my fault.He didn’t scold me. He just told me, “Go home. Take a rest. Think. People are of two types: some fit into square pegs, some into round pegs. Most people complain that they do not want what they get and do not get what they want. The key is to make the most of what you have in life, rather than pine for what you have not got.”Phillip’s words stayed with me. I’m really blessed to have a teacher like him. Really, what’s Read more:Reflections

Love – The Rashomon Effect 2008-05-06 01:17:00 Have you seen Akira Kurosawa’s film Rashomon? Being a movie buff, I not only watch Hollywood productions but also world cinema. The movie is about an incident which has different viewpoints from all four of the witnesses. When I started writing this post, somehow I remembered the film, its unique concept and more importantly, its significance in my life today.Rio called today. As soon as his number flashed on my mobile screen, my heart skipped a beat. I said a tentative “hello”. He immediately broke into a torrent of words. I could not follow what he said in entirety because the content kept pushing me to the edge of the cliff. To cut a long story short, he was saying how he met Stephanie at a basketball match.A basketball match: it has brought happiness to a woman named Stephanie, e
Love - Fatal for Friendship? 2008-05-07 01:07:00 After answering Rio's phone call, my hopes were shattered. He is really in love. Until then, I had been hoping against hope and telling myself that it is only a crush and he will get over it. But now I can't see any way out. I really want him to experience a lot of love and be happy in life, but I was also hoping it would be with me. In love, the stronger person is not she who can hold their partner close to their heart, but she who has the courage to let go. You cannot hold your love in a tight fist-the more you do that, the more love slips out of your fingers. If you can let go and your love comes back to you, that is true love. If the person does not come back, they were never yours.I understand all the profound philosophy that I have put down for you; but can't take heart from it! It's Read more:Fatal

Love - Rising Above The Pain 2008-05-08 01:27:00 Rising above the labyrinth of emotions is not a walk in the park. There are pulls of enormous strength in opposite directions, tugging at the heart. What would you choose - your happiness or the happiness of a person you love? There is inherent contradiction in the question too - your happiness is in the happiness of the person you love! What to do? The confused mind that is writing this post is not able to figure anything out, except for the hopeless, and sometimes irritating, feeling that I love a man who is not feeling the same way.Rio calls all the time, just like he used to. He wants to share his happiness with me. I was his closest friend for quite some time. Was? I don't know. I yearn to talk to him. I really enjoy it when he calls me, but the fact remains that I lose it totally whe Read more:Rising
Love - Reflections of a Daughter on Mothers Day 2008-05-09 01:14:00 Dear Friends, you must be knowing that Mothers
Day is on Sunday. I’ll be going home this Mothers Day
to be with my mom. I’m dying to see her. After the recent developments in my relationship with Rio, this will be the first time I’m going home. My mom is very supportive. I can discuss anything and everything with her. Sharing my troubled thoughts with her will definitely allay the conflicts in my mind to a great extent.Reflecting on the past, I remember I had a crush in high-school and like all those mushy heroines of romance novels, it was the basketball captain! However, I was not the heroine who bagged the guy in the end. My mom told me a lot of things which helped me get over him. Her comments were on the lines of how good I a person I was and how I’ll be kissing many frogs bef Read more:Reflections

Love – Being Alive Again 2008-05-12 01:31:00 I had that much needed chat with my mother after all. It was extremely refreshing. She told me the things that I had expected her to say. But despite that fact, I got a lot of encouragement from her words. She’s told me quite categorically that I need to take charge of my life and get on with it. “Enough depression,” she said, “now move on. He’s not the last guy on earth; neither is he only good guy around. Open the windows of your heart and let some fresh air come in.” She told me of her love for dad, how they met, how she had to make little compromises to make the relationship work. “A man wants an impossible amalgamation in his wife,” she told me, “you can achieve that only if you try to understand him.”In retrospect, I think it’s time I got out of my cocoon and sa Read more:Alive

Love – A Bud About To Bloom 2008-05-15 00:10:00 Hello friends! As I wrote in my last post, Kurt told me the reason for him turning into a professional machine. Since then, we have become quite comfortable in our rapport with each other. He shares small incidents with me; incidents that I could not imagine him sharing just a couple of days back! That has definitely helped me open up to a great extent. I have found a friend in Kurt; situations pl Read more:Bloom
Love – Say It Online During International Romance Week 2008-05-14 02:23:00 Hi friends! I was down with a bad fever yesterday, so I could not touch base with you guys. No worries there, I’m fine now. I met Kurt the other day. He was quite pensive. I asked him why it was so. Suddenly Kurt opened up and told me how he had loved and lost. I would not like to repeat that online, because that would be telling. Hearing him speak, I found my own tongue and in a bid to console Read more:International

Love – Sign of New Love 2008-05-16 02:33:00 Fire has a huge give-away: smoke. Love has a give-away too: eyes. After having gone out with Kurt a couple of times, talking to him, spending time with him, I’m faced with another worry that is slowly creeping its head out. It is my nature to talk with eye-to-eye contact. Yesterday when I was talking to Kurt I felt that his eyes were looking lost. It did not seem that he was listening to me. He
