Valentine's day ~ down the memory lane

Most of my earliest recollections of Valentine's Day would be the soothing number featuring Sammir Dattani and Raima Sen making their way into love, it sure made people want to fall in love. Well I was no exception, was taken by the same at the age of 14. But I had hard luck even talkin to girls my age, since I belonged to an all boys school, and conversing with girls was sure more complicated than understanding Trignometry! The urge to associate with someone didn't escape my heart though. The way young collegians strutted their partners, would definitely make none of us want to stay alone. One of the incidents that touched me was during vday, was when I was travelling on the bus. It was suprisingly empty and just in fronta me there was this young office going couple I used to encounter everyday. That day was no different and they were really happy in each other's company. And then the moment came when the girl,gifted the guy a really good watch as a remembrance of their eternal love. The guy's reaction, well I sure was left astounded, he took out from his pocket what then seemed like the most beautiful ring ever made, and proposed her for marriage. I've heard of Tom Cruise making it the perfect proposal for his ladylove at the top of Eiffel Tower, but sometimes I think its the most unexpected gestures, that really go long, and have the greatest effect. The girl was left speechless perhaps wanting to hear the same, since times immortal. Most of the people around were
amused and definitely wanted an early morning dekho into their love story. Quite expectedly, she was moist eyed, thanking her stars, reaffirmin the fact that dreams do come true, its all about believin in the same till the end.
