love in the time of recession

i don't want to give you the feel that i am copying Gabriel Garcia Marquez..... but the heading does look like that. anyways.... so long as i am not sued for plagiarism, i am fine with it.

i am not an economist and will do great justice by not getting into it that much for the time being. but for the smart people i must say that love is something they should look forward to during a crisis which has let down many. the feeling is not only great but also essential in one's development. the kind that lets you be yourself. the kind that does not have any preconditions to it. the kind that rekindles not only your very emotions but also lets you realize and reaffirm your faith in destiny. love is something that people yearn to have. it is the lucky few who actually get it. even rarer are the people who understand it.

i may be the most hated man for some; but, i know this for a fact, i may be the most loved one for some. for the new ones in love, this is a saying which expresses a lot about love....

"when you're in love you don't want to go to sleep because reality is better than your dreams; but if you are apart from the one you love, you would rather sleep because it wont feel as long of a time until you get to see them again"

love

the concept of love is as old as time itself. the love of a mother for a child is by far the noblest of all. hence this Valentine's day i will start off by talking to my mom. my mom loves me, though we may have diametrically opposite views on a lot of issues, we have a striking resemblance when it matters most. one's connection with his/ her mother is very deep, something that goes beyond the understanding of anyone else. a mother's love is something that goes beyond words. not that there is any dearth of it, but it is beyond description with even the most choicest of the words.
