Love is every where ....

Happy Valentine's Day !

I used to debate earlier, why is that we need to celebrate one day of the year as Valentine's day ? but in actuality we need to love each other through out the year. There seemed to exist no meaning in celebrating valentine's day for just a day. It appears to be too artificial.

As years rolled i understood that todays life has turned into so robotic and organised (boring) that we even plan out when to love in our personal organizers. Its like we get a beeping reminder stating its now time to say "I love you" :). But one thing that i still appreciate is at least we still put a remember to say that we care for them.

Everyone is so focussed on their goals today that they miss out everything opportunity to get a curve on their lips thinking that they can enjoy them once they reach their destination. But they don't realize that the destination is like a mirage and the more you go nearer the far it moves. Keeping your eyes focussed on the road ahead they missed those beautiful things along the sides of the road.

By the time they reach the destination there exits no energy to even laugh at self. Hence any occasion to express one's love should be welcomed at the most. Even though we have a time table and a calender to remind us, its so good that it creates an excuse to at least express our deep feelings which otherwise is quite difficult.

I just saw this "Wakeup Sid" movie today evening and its one of the best movie to be watched with your loved ones. I found a message in the movie which convinced me that what is the use of achieving your goal when you loved ones are not there with you to share the success.

Its not about reaching the destination, its about the journey with your loved ones that matters.

Love is in the air, its just we have been so involved in our mundane things that it goes unnoticed. Just spend few minutes every day for you and for you only, then you will find how beautiful life is, its just that we have been complaining of noise all the the while that we missed those soothing melodies played in the background always for us.

No need to look out for love, just keep smiling whatever happens and then you will notice that love just follows you like a shadow .....

Wake Up Sid is a beautiful movie...And the guy's character is really innocent :)

True that most run behind goals and planned schedules, that we probably don't realize what really makes our hearts happy....

Simple and great message, Ravi!

Happy Valentine's Day to all! :)


love...

Nice one Ravi.. like the way you described the importance of journey.
Very effective thoughts, I have to see Wake-up Sid, though I like a few scenes from it.
Also the movie that made huge impact about love is 'jab we met' it conveys what the journey really means and how the short term destinations change, when you enjoy the journey.

Happy Valentine's day to all !!!
