An old saying goes "Out of sight, out of mind". With normal relationships like acquaintances or friends, this holds true most of the time. Life takes control of your activities and you just run behind time to get ahead of it. In such a pandemonium, you just think only about the rat-race.
A poem with these lines - "No time to stand and stare...." - Leisure. When do we do not do it? I guess when something or someone really touches the innermost chords of your heart, we invariably take time to recall them. Mind becomes a Pensieve (if its fine for me to borrow Dumbledore's property to account here.)
So if this is for casual relationships, what happens in one-chance meetings? I somehow heard that for people who have had such one-chance meetings, it changed their life completely.
It need not be a face-to-face meeting. Sometimes, it could be just anyhow wherein you tend to get really close and then it gets confusing because you really dont know where its heading. "Answer just what your heart prompts you." May not be definitely a good rule to be followed here. But sometimes, who knows, it just might have been the best thing that happened to you. All you need to do is give it sometime and some strong faith. Not all are ready to take the risk in fear of heartache and a bloody shoddy mess of minds and sentiments. However, if it works, life is beautiful in such instances. "Fortune favours the brave."
About the movie "Sleepless in Seattle" - I actually wished that I get to see it come true somewhere sometime in my life. That movie was just one out of the blue romance.
I just truly felt life is a sweet long romance which ripens with time. :D Naive, eh?
So does my same opinion apply to movies like "Serendipity", "Meet Joe Black", "When Harry met Sally", "Pretty woman", "Anastasia". Do they ever come true? Or are they just fictional and to be enjoyed as movies and then forgotten for good? I really dont know but I watch them repeatedly and fill and refill my stock of dreams. :D
I really wish life does hold pleasant surprises ahead and makes living worthwhile for everybody, especially me. (I can afford to be selfish - after all, thats human nature.) :D

Movies...........
Well, whats with movies really? A medium of entertainment or just another mode of splurging money? No clue.
From my tiny tot days, most movies that I have watched have been on love / family drama / action flicks. And all know that movies make most of one theme: love - whoa, all kinds - i mean blind, deaf, dumb, normal, obsessive, compulsive etcetera... And all this mainly covers straight type. A few cover the curved ones. (:P) Also, the movies cover love in different geometrical patterns: triangle, circle, square etc. And I have no necesity to blog about "masala" or commercial movies. I just am quoting on movies I liked.
Note: All you international and art movie buffs, pardon my ignorance. Am still trying to get there and increase my awareness.
Once in a while, I get to see movies like Sarfarosh, In pursuit of happiness, Nayagan, Anbe sivam, Kannathil muthamittal, Mouna raagham, Salangai oli, Astitva, Mitr, Meet Joe Black, Casino, One flew over the cuckoo's nest, Anastasia, Shrek, Ratatouille, Kalki, Sindhu bhairavi, Namesake... The one that affected me most recently is "Tamil M.A". This movie scared the hell out of me but then I wondered "Aint the story true?" Albeit, a little exaggerated coz the guy becomes schizophrenic. Not all become like him, do they? Same goes with Anniyan. Are they trying to convey that you become eccentric wen u try to achieve justice?
The next one that has come on the similar lines is Evano Oruvan. Waiting to see it - hopin no eccentricities are found in it and it aint a Pandora box. :)
I had long back seen a Milan Kundera movie and from then, am just too much in a fix to try such movies again. But what the hell, will give it a shot. After all, movies are effectual imageries, sometimes wry and sometimes fantastic. :) Keep watching them is wot I'll say.
