Tuesdays with Morrie is a book i've come to treasure...Mitch says dat leavin sch, he left his dreams behind n became hard..dats not e best part..my fav part is dat someone came along who loved him enuff to wait for him n marry him..
i've alwaez been a stupid romantic in ma heart o' hearts n i wait for e right one to come, like Chelsea waitin for Jose Mourinho to arrive..therein lies e problem.."a riddle, hidden in a mystery, wrapped in an enigma" as Churchill put it..if we wait, wat if we never meet dat special one?u see, its my honest belief dat there's alwaez someone who fits a fella's preferences for members of e opposite sex (actualli its a few..) but we never meet 'em, or never get to noe them well coz our social circle is just a little smaller than them..
take for instance, a gal i got to meet thru frens; miss An lets call her..when i got added to her frenster list, i found dat i had so mani similar interests with her..n i liked e same songs, movies, books n authors i liked..hell we even had e same religion...i knew we would hav an instinctive chemistry if we onli got to noe one another better...
then i realised she had a boyfren she was deepli in love with and u noe wat its like with gals who r attached..can never get close enuff to 'em...n becos i onli had 1 fren with her in common, it was impossible to get any closer..n i am not e kinda jerk who becomes e 3rd party in a relationship...i noe wat dat feelin is like to be potong jalan'd so to speak...
so it was dat i never got to noe her well, go out with her or be given e opportunity to chase her...a case of not meetin someone e rite time n of not bein given sufficient opportunities or even proximity to develop into somethin more..
so then they say Fate makes sport of men...they hav a point u noe..n so wat else do u think i can do but wait..like Tom Hanks in The Terminal, sometimes we spend all our lives waitin for somethin to happen..e onli good i can see is dat, havin seen the ungiven opportunity, we learn to seize both e day n wat we are allowed when it finally comes..as well as to treasure it for it does not come by easily..dat in a nutshell, is e single greatest lesson we need to learn when we wait; n onli after dat can we move on..
