I come to you, Nokkhotro

I come to you, Nokkhotro, every time when I remember how temporary everything in life is. It is scary how short life is!

How much I love you might sound silly to others, or how weirdly I do love you. People will probably laugh at me or at the whole thing, calling it all a bluff or temporary madness.

But only I know the grandeur and the weight of my love that I feel for you. How poetic, how epic it is, maybe insignificant to the universe, but only I know: you are the star, your gravity changes my life's orbit. It would rearrange my pace. I would forever revolve around you in your orbit.

If that means forever, then it's forever for me. I know when a planet orbits around a star, it will never reach the star, but it's in a universal sync that we see God is paving the way. You know, the Golden Ratio.

But in some cases of rare events, only the star is able to absorb the planet. That rarely happens, but it does. So there's that.

Recently, I was reading about Rekha. She was married to Mukesh Aggarwal for a brief period of time. I don't exactly know if she fell in love with Amitabh Bacchan after or before her marriage. But it's a well-known phenomenon how she spent her whole life till today cherishing her one true love. She said in an interview how she saw her love every day on TV, in award functions. Sometimes they even meet in person, but that is enough for her. She is so content with that love. Even though she didn't get anything in return, she spent a life loving someone unreachable. She has the power to do something about it but definitely didn't. She chose to love in silence, like a spectator. And she said, "Loving someone from afar is the best kind of love you can love someone."

In many ways, you are that kind for me, Nokkhotro. You are changing the course of my life without even knowing it. We barely notice the events in our happening life. It feels less impactful than in a later period of time when we become nostalgic about the events we lived through, including epic events like war and famine, and how our lives intertwined with one person who has the influence to change the course of our life.

I love you, Nokkhotro, and I will keep loving you till my end of time. I am happy with the memories, the brief interactions. It is more than I can ask for or expect.

I am so thankful that the physical embodiment of a star landed on earth this 25th March, and she kept on shining even with a concrete aura for 28 years.

Cheers to 100 more of this in health and happiness. You are one hell of a person, Nokkhotro. You are loved beyond what you can imagine. I am so lucky our paths crossed and fortunate to love you and be recognized by a star.

Cannot ask for more than this.
