All but one...

There are many people that we meet in a lifetime, but only one for us…Who is he? Hmm, let me see. May be the guy sitting next to you in a cafĂ©, or the one who just crossed the street, or the brother of your friend’s brother’s wife!!
You don’t know, you can’t say. But there shall be once, when you will be very sure that he is the one for you.
I am on one such tour myself; still searching and it’s a lot of fun.
In my journey till date I have found some interesting people who claim to have found their better halves. They say it all just happens; that you just know one day. There remain no doubts, no ifs. You heart feels it.
Some graduate from being good friends, some from hating each other once, some don’t even meet properly. They just needed a glimpse of each other…

So I asked who to look for when I begin; a lover or a friend? What does it take to sustain the relationship?
They say one thing. We all need a friend who loves us. He is your best friend on friendship’s day, and a passionate lover on valentine's. You can’t survive a lover, you can’t survive a friend. You need to be both.

It’s a difficult game I tell you, a tough one to win. Many play, many fail, only to play it again.

Personally, I am not too good at it. I have made some mistakes myself. But that’s the beauty of it. It always gives you a second chance. So I rolled the dice again. And this time, I have hit a six. I have an option to move on or miss the turn to allow someone else to score.
Right now I am highly confused and highly cautious. I have heard the music before. Don’t want to sing again, fearing I might loose the rhythm. So I wonder, why did I get a dedication in the first place?

I know two things, everything has a reason and every beginning has an end. What I choose is what I get. But in the end…. all I want to do is to find my way back into love.
