The December Wedding

Weddings have always been a very boring affair for me. I enjoyed them as a kid though. I hate the whole idea of dressing up and going there just to put up a plastic smile and eat food ( I am not very experimental with food that I should enjoy that bit). Of course people who know you will walk up to you and talk..or may be NOT. I mean there aren't even great guys to look at and when they are there... I am not at that function :P I am still a kid ..who'd prefer staying home in the loose clothes , hair done up in a messy bun, walk around the house or watch something interesting on t.v. or listen to music..or may be just do something else. I find myself alone at weddings..not a part of it. well, if the dessert is tempting ..I do find a friend in them for may be a few minutes. People even try to keep harping .."Now you should get married"..I just don't know what to say to them...I shoot them with a bullet in my thoughts though ...ahh how wish there was a mute button for that minute .
I remember being at this wedding in the family during December. And it was by the beach...how I wanted to take off my shoes and walk on the cold sand beneath the gorgeous moonlit sky that night. The pleasant winter wind fiddling with my hair left me thinking ..How I wish  I had someone by myside...I don't need  his words.. but his silence , the warm love in the eyes, some smiles and stories whispered by one heart to another...really how I wish..
And then I thought....this wedding is really pushing me over to that platform where I don't want to be. Here I am now.. three months later...still thinking..why that night left me with that question mark in bold . I am not on a hunt for a prince charming or a greek god....or a geek god either haha...May be just someone who cares enough to understand, is there to love , brings surprises and makes me laugh...when tears had plans to roll down.
Here's to the lines I like which Minnie Mouse says to Daisy Duck...
Minnie: Just imagine. He'll stride into the room. Light will glow from him. I'll hear music. He'll bring me flowers. And he'll sweep me off my feet. And I'll know he's the one, when he makes me laugh.

This is a memory from that day.. at the place where the wedding was held....a painting.

She waits......
