Finding that perfect moment.



Just a little while ago, I was walking my dog. There were two teenage girls walking in front of me and I couldn't help overhearing their conversation.

'What if you are in love and you share with them that perfect moment, but it was not the perfect moment for them? How awful would that be?' said one
'Exactly! It would be so embarrassing!' the other exclaimed, mortified at the very thought.

I guess, with age you realise that it does not matter if it wasn't the perfect moment for him. If he loves you, he is going to cherish the time he spends with you. If you say that this was the perfect moment for you, it would probably be for him too. If he is in love with you, chances are he was too busy looking into your eyes to even think about the perfect moment.

And here is the thing-- Later, when he is alone, he too wonders about what you thought. He too wonders if  you misinterpreted something he said.

So it really is not about the perfect moment, but a whole lot of imperfect moments that make up cherished memories.

Enjoy the time you spend together. You might not get these exact moments back again/.

  3. I'd rather love to get surprised with the imperfect ones. May be perfect moments are just fantasies. If you feel like staying in a particular moment forever even if it is not how you thought it should be... you have already found the "perfect moment".. Your blog post made me recollect my most cherished imperfect yet perfect moments! :) Thanks!

    Loved this sentence. So true. I feel a lot of times media portrays love in a very glamorous way.Hearts, roses, flowers, diamond rings no wonder people get disillusioned.

  7. Oh, what a lovely post! It is true and unfortunate that we spend time looking for those memories and always caught up on each of them. What we do not realize is that imperfect and unexpected moments keep happening and start becoming a special part of our lives. Sometimes, I may think, "Should I call my husband just to say hello and see what he is doing?" I may stop myself and think he might be busy, so shrug off the idea. Then immediately I think that it's better to call and then I do. We never know if we may get a second chance to do something good, so better we go ahead and put our heart and soul into it the first time. Thank you!
