Hi!
Read this,
it is from the movie Home Alone 2…
Bird Lady: So what are you
doing alone on Christmas Eve? You did something wrong?
Kevin McCallister: A lot of
things.
Bird Lady: Did you know that a
good deed erases a bad deed?
Kevin McCallister: Its late. I
dont know if I’ll have enough time to do enough good deeds to erase all my bad
ones.
Bird Lady: Its Christmas
Eve. Good deeds count extra tonight. Think of an important thing you
can do for others, and go do it. Just follow the star in your heart.
Chiku,
What are
you doing on this Christmas Eve? If nothing special, let’s get married on that
eve.
You see, if
I follow the star in my heart, I think it is a good deed we can do. And that
will be counted somewhat extra also, to compensate for some bad deeds we would
have done by then or we would do in future. Of course, it is the best thing for
us, it is a good thing for others also as we would invite them for (free!!)
dinner. So, what do you say? (Generally Christmas Eve is evening of 24th
Dec, but we can cheat slightly on that and do the wedding thing after 12
o’clock, by that we can have the wedding both, on Christmas Eve and on 25th
Dec.! :))
If the
reason in the above paragraph is not good enough, I can add some more reasons
for which you would be tempted to marry me! First thing is that I love you.
Second is that I love you so much. One more is that I will always love you. Yet
another is that I will love you more at a given moment than the previous one,
and that is true for all the moments to come…
If the reason
in the above paragraph is not good enough, I can add that I want you to be
happy and smiling all the time and I think you will be happy and smiling all
the time if you are with me all the time. We would be a happy couple who would
be smiling together in all good and bad times…
If the
reason in the above paragraph is not good enough, I can add that we have known
each other for a long time now and the good thing is that we understand each
other so well. We know what the other one would think or say or do in a given
situation. There are things we both like, like music. There are things that one
of one likes and the other doesn’t, like pop or rock music, but even then we
respect and accept each other’s choices. I am sure one day we will originate a
new genre called ‘The Indian Classical Rock’ and the world would remember us as
the parents of it!
If the
reason in the above paragraph is not good enough, I can add that I can continue
this sequel of adding a paragraph starting with “If the reason in the above
paragraph is not good enough, I can add that…” till the end of time. But I
know, rather, we know that I can always come up with something to convince you
to my point, so I need not to go till the end of time, only the time when you
will say “bas bas… mani gayi” is good enough! And I know that by now you are
convinced, because I know you that well. And I also know that you are happy and
smiling now and also that you love me too, 3, 4, …, 78…
So, I will
call this ‘The Proposal’, and will once again propose you, this time, formally:
My Sweetheart,
Will you marry
me on this Christmas Eve?
Lovingly Yours,
pt.
