To me, you are…
June 2, 2007
A couple of weeks back, I was having a discussion with a friend about how no one is perfect and that peoples imperfections are what make them perfect.. I was taken aback when he said “you are perfect”.. obviously I replied instantly with the overly used common “no one is perfect”.. then that’s when he said, “but to me, you are perfect”..
It wasn’t the fact that he flattered me to bits with those words.. I wasn’t surprised per se coz he thought of me so highly, I’m not that confident but I do embrace my imperfections and make them the best of me.. it was the fact that he used those exact words. I had heard them before and always felt flattered, but this time it was different. This time I instantly smiled and thought of the scene from Love Actually. My Favorite part of the movie that I love actually:
Now the reason why I thought of this Movie when I heard those words was simply coz only a few days before that incident I had another Love Actually encounter that I must say is one of the sweetest things ever. I was at a friends house at a gathering with the girls. I met my friends younger brother and was stunned at how much he resembled my own brother. Anyways, there was a lot of picture taking and videos shot of the lovely evening. The next day I met up with my friend and she showed me a small clip of the video her brother was supposedly taking of “us”. She told me that she thinks her little brother has a crush on me and when watching the video I would notice that he had focused on keeping the camera on me the whole time. I was so flattered, so cute really. And that’s when I recalled this scene from Love Actually.
Don’t you just love it when life reflects art ?
I’m sure many of you have related to shows and movies before.. I can list so many.. but this one was cute, and it happened all in the same time frame which made it ever so special..
Love actually,
D
