Speak Now!

Is there someone special in your life? Do you keep thinking about someone quite a lot of time? Does that someone light up your day or night? Do you dream about that person with eyes wide open? Would you like to be with them if it’s the edge of the world? Do you like their company? Do you love that someone? Have you told that someone about your feelings?

As you read these above lines, does a name pop up into your head? If yes, then that’s all I intended to do. So now that we have a name, we both know that how important that person is to you, right? Deny it and you’ll be lying to yourself. Go on whimpering that you’re not crazy about them but if all these questions brought only one name to your mind, then trust me my dear friend, you’re screwed! 

Undoubtedly, some of you may have come up with a slideshow of series of names and the images in their head. I must admit that you then have a really rocking life!

Anyways, coming back to where we left, have you said it to him/her?  You have? You haven’t? You did but the response was not what you yearned for? Or are you just happily committed to him/her? Or maybe just committed and withering by those daily fights and misunderstandings?

You’re afraid to say it? Thinking it might ruin the thing between the two of you.Well, I don’t know what the right thing to do is! Whether to wait for the right moment or to keep playing this wait and watch game forever. All I know is sometimes, that perfect moment might never come your way. Maybe the ball might never be in your court and you’ll be kept waiting for that golden opportunity. The things you’re trying so hard to put in place might never fit. Things might never be right! You’d keep waiting for things to settle down thinking in your head, ‘One more day and things will be alright!’, ‘I’ll take her out someday and open up my heart in front of her’, ‘I’m just in mess to deal with it right now’, 'He/she'll be with me if my destiny wants so!' and a million other reasons to hold your words back! It may work out for some, the gamble might pay off. But what if it doesn’t?

You think in your head that you’ll have a perfect date one day with that special someone and then you’ll present them with the garland of your feelings. You probably think saying it on the phone may not be the best idea to sort out a small tussle, so you’d wait your chance when you’ll see him/her in person. You think that probably avoiding the situation will put an end to it in a few days. Your perspectives may differ, your way of thinking might not match and you may pick up fights every single day on petty issues. But have these tussles and misunderstandings changed your feeling for the person you are thinking of right now? If you say you don’t know the answer, let me tell you one thing, you wouldn’t have been thinking of that person if you really didn’t know.

I don’t mean to push you or force you or persuade you to go and tell your counterpart anything, all I mean to convey is that if it’s in your capacity to tell the one you care so dearly for, seize the moment and don’t wait for the perfect one because no moment is perfect until you make it yourself by your actions. Don’t wait to hug them, kiss them or even bed them (if that’s what you’d like to do with them) the next time you meet them or see them. Don’t wait to hold their hand and tell them what they mean to you. Don’t wait for things to settle down because they never will settle down. Look them in the eye and make sure they know what’s in your heart and not what’s on your tongue for the statements differ sometimes! Do not leave things to their prerogative for they might not be as optimistic as you. Don’t keep words unsaid! Do not leave things to destiny for once at least! Don't relay all on hope just for once thinking they'll see it one day by themselves!

Don’t let these opportunities slip by for the regret that will come later will be very hard to deal with. You’ll be holding your head someday and will be thinking that why didn’t you tell them or made the move when you should have. The status quo is in your favor today my friend, it may not be so tomorrow; so make the best use of it before it changes! Speak  Now before it’s too late!
