THE PROPOSAL: SHORT STORY

I was on my way back to home after attending the morning Holy mass at my parish church. When I reached the Post Office junction, I saw a boy and a girl talking to each other. Boy was extremely nervous standing before her. I decided to watch them for a moment and sat on the bench on the road side. Suddenly the boy stood on his one knee and quickly took out a red rose out of his shirt. All of a sudden the scene that's happening before me brought a smile on my face and it reminded me of a September morning. The day I proposed my girl. That day, that moment, helped me now to be a proud husband of a great wife. I prayed a while for the couple, who is just going to start their love life and continued walking to my home.

One Month In!

Love before Marriage! It's been a great journey for both of us. We shared our stories every day, we prayed together, we were together in happiness and in sorrow, and we dreamed a life together. Yes! We were preparing for the 'Life after marriage'.
Can't forgot the last couple of months. Let us take this opportunity to thank everyone who were there for us. Especially our Parents, Brothers (Akhil Paul & Anil Jose), our relatives (Especially Antony Uncle, Francis Uncle, Fr. Francis, Saju Pepan, Lloyid, Sheri Cheattan.... (oopz! the list goes on and on), and friends (Special mention to Varun Paul, Thomson Varghese, Edison Varghese, Jomon Moonjely, Midhun, Dikil, Prajeesh, Ajith, & Joe). Thank You all for your efforts!
Completed our first month as husband and wife. We're slowly coming back to business. Both of us joined back our work.

But it doesn’t feel different.

Which is fine, because our relationship was awesome. It hasn’t changed at all. Every once in a while there’s the little thrill of thinking of her as “wife” but even that is not as exciting as I expected it to be. The fact is, we have felt committed to each other for life. We both knew. Just completely knew that this was it.
But it still doesn’t quite feel real to us. We said vows. We went through two ceremonies. But I think it will take a lot of calling each other “husband” and “wife” for it is too hard for me to hide that little smile. So far it's been a wonderful breeze and we hope it will stick around for the life ahead. Thanks Again!

#ThankYouSachin

I'm a die hard fan of Sachin Tendulkar. It was a privilege for me to watch him play cricket. His fours were my fours, his sixes were my sixes, and his centuries, no doubt, they were my centuries too. His achievements were mine too and it made me proud. Even I told my soul-mate that I won't marry before his retirement from the game. Because I know otherwise she won't get cent percent of me. I never ever thought of cricket without this man. For me he is the cricket almighty. But I know I must accept the reality. He has to take the exit now and won't return. I had big plans for this day. Unfortunately my pocket is too small these days, and I'm too busy with my personal life. Therefore I went to church today participated in the holy mass, prayed for him, and thanked almighty for this wonderful gift for me, and for the nation. #ThankYouSachin
