Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day!

I do not want to be partial in wishing this day. I think it is to acknowledge love for your husband, children, friends and family. The feeling of love might differ but the meaning remains the same.

I wish all the wonderful men in my life - a Happy Valentine's Day. Behind every successful woman there are many intelligent, understanding and inspiring men. From my father to my husband, from my brother to my boss, from my editor to my doctors, I wish all the great men in my life - A Happy Valentine's Day. Each one of them made me fall in love with myself. They gave me a reason to prove that I am a part of their life and they should not regret about it. 

I deny the fact that Valentine's Day is only for people in love. I think - it is a day to acknowledge love. Love for a father who pay for your education, love for a friend who supports you in your harder days, love for a husband who loves you the most, love of your doctor to see you healthy, love of a brother to be with his sister, love of a boyfriend who does not cheat.

It is a day around love driven by trust.

Few of my favourite lines dedicated to God -

Faili Thi Siyaah Raatein, Aaya Toh Subah Leke
Khama Si Zindagi Mein Jeene Ki Wajah Leke
Khoya Tha Samundaron Mein, Tanha Safeena Mera
Saahilon Pe Aaya Hai, Tu Jaane Kis Tarah Haan Leke

Meharbaani Jaate Jaate Mujh Pe Kar Gaya
Guzarta Sa Lamha Ek Daaman Bhar Gaya
Tere Nazara Mila, Roshan Sitaara Mila
Takdeer Ka Jaise Koi Ishaara Mila

Roothi Hui Khwaishon Mein Thodi Si Sulah Leke
Aaya Tu Khamoshiyon Mein, Baaton Ki Chirah Leke
Khoya Tha Samundaron Mein, Tanha Safeena Mera
Saahilon Pe Aaya Hai, Tu Jaane Kis Tarah Haan Leke

Ab Kya Hai Kehna, Humko Hai Rehna
Jannatein Bhula Ke Teri Baahon Mein Mein Panah Leke
Faili Thi Siyaah Raatein, Aaya Toh Subah Leke
Khama Si Zindagi Mein Jeene Ki Wajah Leke

So, Happy Valentine's Day..............<3 <3
