This is one of those days where a lot of my inner believes and my conceptions were broken.I always thought this as a day to celebrate once love with your beloved,an auspicious day to express how you feel about your better half.
The V Day 2009 was almost similar as i had spent my earlier V days ,the only difference was i was still hoping for a miracle.
As the day passed by , i was rest assured i would spent the day all alone , as i had no one to caress , no one to hold hand and say i won't leave this hand whatever it may come.The hope of miracle was becoming gloomy.As the clock ticked 10 i was convincing myself that this would go down as all other 21 V days i have had.Thinking of atleast not spoiling the weekend we thought of boozing in the flat and have candle night dinner.I was still upset with myself ,i dunno why but there was something which i thought i was lacking.Something was missing or maybe it was just plain feeling of being single on the day where couple is the keyword.
The first thing i did after returning with all the accessories of boozing ,is i chatted with my college roommate.While i was talking i realized it has been a long since we have had such a long and intimate talks about our life and future.It never occurred to me that this would be the beginning of a new lesson which i was about to learn within next few hours .
As the candle lit and the few gulps of scotch went in , the feelings were flowing flawlessly.We talked about anything and everything.Inspite that we have known each other for a few months only, we understood each other well. we were in the midst of all these talking that i realised something which somehow brighten my mood and realized me something.
Is it necessary for people to have girl friends.Why do people need gfs , keeping apart the sexual satisfaction.
Generally in todays world gf's are temporary leaving apart some exceptions .People hangout with each other just because they enjoy each others company.Mostly it's their sexual need that the other gender satisfies while generally the emotional quotient and understanding is missing.If people just need sexual satisfaction why do we name it as Valentines day why not F***ing Day , and if V day is meant for love , understanding and be there in need then i think i was having the best of the time and maybe i'm the luckiest of one as i had a lot of people to watch my back.
Dont think me as a sadist or im against any casual relationships or this gf bf thingy.its just that it dint occurred to me that V day is not about hangouts or enjoyment with your lover.Its more than that.Its about telling people whom you love , that you love them and care about them.Maybe V day was meant to be a day , that in this fast moving world we at least find one single day to express our love and affection to the ones you care about.
From now on i have made a point that if not always i will atleast on this day call , and make all those people who care about me realize that im privileged to have people like you at my side.
Thanks for being there.
