My lovely wishes..


A talk with a friend, let me remember this song, Book Of Love by Peter Gabriel. I first heard it while watching the movie 'Shall We Dance'. Its played when Richard Gere, in a black suit with a red rose in his hands appears in a escalator to meet his wife Susan Sarandon, who is suspecting him having an affair. The scene is in a mall where Susan is working. Richard Gere gives her the rose, she is totally surprised by this gesture, and they dance a little while other co-workers look with jealous awe.. The magic of the scene will only be felt when you see the movie.


I drifted from the topic, I was talking about the song.. It goes on

The book of love is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts and figures and instructions for dancing
But I... I love it when you read to me
And you... you can read me anything.

The book of love has music in it
In fact that's where music comes from
Some of it is just transcendental
Some of it is just really dumb
But I... I love it when you sing to me
And you... you can sing me anything.

The book of love is long and boring
And written very long ago
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
And things we're all too young to know
But I... I love it when you give me things
And you...you ought to give me wedding rings



So romantic...Do listen it once. And dont you wish your love to be like this..I do

Hi Nishi,

I have seen that movie and I know exactly what you mean :) The movie's really beautiful and so is the scene that you have mentioned.

But I would like you to remember one thing always: love is beautiful in any form that it is given... And we realize that only when we accept love in the form it's given :) Sounds cliched..? Maybe.. But I know this to be true..

And Venks bro- I hope you completed this assignment of yours..? :)

God bless you :)

Cheers!
Priyanka.
