If the topic is known to
you well in advance, you have time to gather thoughts but what if you are
called on the stage and asked to speak on a topic you never guessed about. The
topic may appear simple for the audience but it may be extremely difficult to
speak on, especially when you happen to be a person considered to be able to speak
on any subject given to you. Once I landed into such a situation.
The topic was: What is
the one dangerous and needy thing that you dared to do?
I started off, I have a
lady friend, once I walked up to her and said “I love you”. (Before I continue
further; you might be having a whirlpool of thoughts. You might be thinking
would she be unmarried, or would she be married? Not only questions; you might be
having answers ready too. If she was unmarried she might have replied “I am
already in love with someone, sorry houseful”, If she was married she might
have replied but I am a mother of two children. Let me bring an end to it; she was
a married lady.)
No sooner did she hear
it, she was looking at me into my eyes, her eyes questioning mine. Though
powerful at body language and eye gestures, I found myself losing ground.
Instead of using eye gesture I thought it wise to use verbal language.
Me: This statement has been
troubling me since long and with such gesture from your side it has turned to
be more troubling.
She: I am a mother of
two beautiful children, a wife to a caring husband and that statement of your
is not acceptable to me.
Me: Dear, I have no
other person in the world to whom I can express that worry of mine.
She: But your worry can
bring worries to my family.
Me: Dear, if you try to
understand my worry I think you can free me from it.
She: Sorry, I cannot
help you. It is better you go to an unmarried lady.
Me: It is going to be a
“From a pillar to the post” experience.
She: Whatever it be, I
can’t help!
Me: Let me tell you that
I approached the lady who sits to your right in the office. She told me that
she was in love with her college friend.
Me: About the girl who sits
to your left in the office she told “she was engaged and getting married in a
month’s time”
Me:
And the girl who sits to the far left in the office she said “she is leaving
the country in a week’s time for further studies and she doesn’t believe in
distant love”
Me: I even asked the girl who sits
to the far right in the office. She isn’t that impressive and good looking, isn't it. Do
you know what she said? Stay away or else I won’t lodge a complaint to the
department boss but I will directly call the police.
See you next time
with the concluding part: I LOVE YOU-2
