"Marriages happen in Heaven" - A statement that was a myth of the past for me for two reasons. One, I dint believe in a concept called heaven and two, even if a heaven exists I was pretty sure a cruel thing like marriage will never happen there :-P
Post March 5,2012; I tend to speak "FOR" the above statement. Now I believe that a Marriage is one sure thing that is worthy to happen in heaven and even if a heaven never exists, a marriage will construct that heaven for you in your daily life. This girl, Naveena, I have seen her almost all the 365 days in a year when I was a child. When my mom told me about this girl, I was like, "Wait, I never remember seeing this girl and I do not know much about her", while the actual fact was way different. Looking back from this point of my life, I see that she was somehow connected with me one way or the other right thru and she was meant to be that ONE for me. She hapenned to be my neighbour and their compound used to be our playing grounds.We have studied in the same school, tuitions and we have even been inside the same campus knowing not we were (When I worked for CTS, CBE and she was studying at KG College which was in the same campus). Then she happens to get placed in the same CTS and then get to fall on my mom's eyes for her to take a notice of her for me.
As Steve jobs said in his famous last speech, connecting the dots backwards will make a lot of sense in life. You will feel it all happenned in a structured manner without your conciousness. Someone sitting all above was planning her for me and me for her right from the beginning. Wherever we go, how many ever people we bump into in our lives, we will get together only with the best of choices and that choice is already made. When I was young, I used to strongly believe in Love marriages. Arranged marriage made no sense to me for the very reason that you have to insure your life with some unknown party (Risk involved is very high). I made a choice and it dint turn out to be fruitful. What seemed to be the most saddest incident in my life makes so much sense today. And it seems to be the most perfect thing that could have happenned to me. Whatever destiny has in place for you will be your most perfect combination and all that you run behind is just to prove to yourself that it is not worth it.
I am proud that such a girl is my wife and I wanted to embark this on the most special day in her life - March 24th, her birthday (Hereafter a special day in my life too). I love you veena and I will love you the rest of my life each day as I love you for the first time :-) Hearty birthday wishes....
