Rendezvous with my self..

Met a family last weekend and spent a couple of hours at their place.

This lady (of the house) was unbelievable !!

Great body.
Silky smooth flowing Hair.
Perfect skin and complexion.
Smile to die for – all this at 40, looking not one day more than 30.
Amazing husband – understanding, loving, handsome and all.
Talented kids who have all her great genes, plus more.
A HUGE house in one of the best locations in the US.
Job that pays brilliant and keeps you feeling like a star.
Awesome skills in communication and athletics and what not.

‘Has it All’ and Truly blessed ?

I  heard from some common acquaintances , a few days later :

“I have never heard a kind word from that woman”
“Have not really liked her. Arrogance puts me off”
“She sounds rude, most of the time.”

‘Has it all’ has much more to it than seen, I learnt.

A few good words about you from people around – I guess that is mostly what ‘Has it all’ is made of.

No?

Ever cheerful and talkative, I would ALWAYS find ‘PP’ laughing or smiling, heartily.With a  beautiful face, big black eyes with extra long eye lashes, she  never had to try hard to attract attention.

One more thing that made PP unique was undoubtedly her innocence..almost sharing borders with dumbness.Yes, she was the pampered little baby in her family of 5, but it seemed like she had never even heard things like – hatred, mistrust or dishonesty.Drinking or flirting were alien in her world.

Everything was a part of a charming fairy tale – where all was WHITE, nothing like BLACK or even GREY existed.

Then, one day, she got married to ‘RH’- The one whom her parents chose for her; the one whom she admired not just for the looks but for the qualities; the one with whom she readily fell in love.

RH was a wonderful person.He spoke softly, spoke sensibly and behaved equally well.He was caring and showered her with love .

PP and RH were happy together, as a couple.

But, then…one day this all WHITE story became stained .
PP discovered that RH drinks! How could her prince charming be anything less than perfect? How could he be drinking?? That is sooo wrong!!!

She tried so very hard to rid him from his drinking.She accompanied him wherever he went, kept an eye on him like an eagle on the prey, pounced to stop him when he even had thoughts for a sip or two with his friends.

Slowly, the ever-so-kind-and-gentle RH could not remain the same with PP.What was wrong with her? Why does she get defensive about my little habit? he cringed.

I tried talking to PP :

” Hey, RH is such a nice person and this is maybe his only quality you dont like.Why not compromise and get along? Afterall, he is only a social drinker.There is nothing wrong in it dear.Try and open up. Let him be him.”

” Hmm. But, drinking is never good for anyone.None of them in my family drank and I do not believe it is advisable even socially.I just cannot accept it..” she sulked.

The once-so-happy couple seem distanced now.Neither look cheerful or smile heartily anymore.PP still attracts attention.. for wrong reasons – like making a sharp comment about RH’s habit when he takes a sip.RH is still kind and gentle, but not towards her.He does not even hesitate to insult her in public anymore.

Me and hubby often think how great they are as individuals and how insensible they become when with each other.We snuggle up together on the sofa and hope all’s fine in PP-RH villa soon… while sipping our chardonnay wines on lazy evenings.

N and N’s little boy arrived into the world yesterday.
I was all “Awwwwwww’ when I held the baby..with tears brimming at the edge of my eyes.

A new life  – that pink little peachy lipped thing..that bundled up tiny fingered cutie.

But..

But…minutes later, mind wandered off thinking about the origin of new life – particularly this one.

There is something very very wrong with me people..!

Would anyone look at a baby and imagine its parents having sex and then think ” he put THAT IN and she put THIS OUT”.

How disgusting am I ??!

< *Shaking head trying to shoo away the thoughts*>

Please tell me this is not abnormal

Believe it or not people – this did happen!

The tag I drafted yesterday asks me to list  ”10 Things You Wish You Could Say To People Right Now ” and I wrote this addressing my best friend Ak:

“I wish you find your life partner soon.. friend”

Today , I get this email from her titled,  ”Good news”.

Woo..Talk about co-incidence..or was there somebody up there who actually listened to me ???

* Smiles and makes a warm snuggle posture *

Ak – I have not met him yet, but your story tells me he has a sincere heart and will always keep you happy.

A man who can shed tears when he is going away from you..

A man who can patiently spend years waiting for you..

A man who is gentleman enough to come and ask your parents to permit taking you as his bride..

Ofcourse, he is the right one for you sweetheart !

And hey, I am sorry..sorry..very sorry to be so far away during all this. I will royally miss out all of it -shopping with you, the celebrations, the teasing and the good times  * Sob Sob *

Happy for ya anyways dearie.

Have a Rocking married life !
