Obviously the real Pages !!

Paperback editions vs eBooks.

Now will anyone tell me ? Where will I get the smell of the pages ?? Over E-books ?? Never !!

I always prefer the Paperback Edition or the real so called books where I can touch the papered pages and turn them over... then can smell the book throughout the pages. Will I get this feeling over Ebooks ??

and also Can you spot any difference between an old book and an old Ebook ?? No Never.. Where will I get to see the several touches of several unknown people who read the same book before? Where will I find the bookmarks of folded pages ?? Where will I get to see some names written on one of the pages somewhere in the book.. ?? These all do happen when you can physically touch the book ... Ebooks -- is just a way to read virtually ...

Frankly saying I do never get any feel or charm to read Ebooks ... they are so so annoying ... but due to shortage of time ... For R & D I too opt for this Ebooks ...

Message in a Bottle !!

If anyone asks me to define LOVE, then what would I say? I actually don't know. I may define it in various way. I may take few long pages to describe it or I may not be able to describe it too. Now don't think that this month is the official month of Valentine and so that I am here. No, absolutely no.

For me Love is the most beautiful realization which anyone can ever have in life. Love can be depicted as the true emotion and care for your beloved and own. It is not that LOVE is different for different person / relation.I believe LOVE is always the same emotion which remains same for all. But the way of expressing love differs from one to other. Love can be best felt when there is pain and separation or not being with the one you love. It brings out the value most.

Why today am I writing my words suddenly? The reason behind it is my recent read.Like I mentioned before I am not a typical bibliophile who always lives in books. But yes I am a light reader and like to read. But for past few weeks I am just running through pages of various books and today I completed the last page of Message in a bottle and again could not stop my tears to step back. My heart, nerve started trembling badly as I could not imagine the scenario. It was a complete amalgamation of pain, happiness. It was the perfect blend of being in love, moving on forward forgetting your past and yet being committed to your lost and past love. It was everything. I just don't have any words to explore its charm in that way. I may sound weird with all these sentences. But yes it was a painful and yes realizing read. It knocked my sea-level emotion again and I ended up reading my favorite lines again and again...

The quotes which touched me in a deep way

“True love is rare, and it's the only thing that gives life real meaning.”

“Someday you'll find someone special again. People who've been in love once usually do. It's in their nature.”

“This is not a goodbye, my darling, this is a thank you. Thank you for coming into my life and giving me joy, thank you for loving me and receiving my love in return. Thank you for the memories I will cherish forever. But most of all, thank you for showing me that there will come a time when I can eventually let you go. I love you, T.”

“There are winds of destiny that blow when we least expect them. Sometimes they gust with the fury of a hurricane, sometimes they barely fan one’s cheek. But the winds cannot be denied, bringing as they often do a future that is impossible to ignore.”

“I have come to realize that destiny can hurt a person as much as it can bless them, and I find myself wondering why--out of all the people in all the world I could ever have loved--I had to fall in love with someone who was taken away from me.”

“I am lost without you. I am soulless, a drifter without a home, a solitary bird in a flight to nowhere. I am all these things, and I am nothing at all. This, my darling, is my life without you. I long for you to show me how to live again.”

“Love is Love no matter old you are, and I knew if I gave you enough time, you'd come back to me.”

"As I write, I am struggling with the ghost of someone I loved and lost."

all quotes are from the Novel by Nicholas Sparks

No matter how much we use emails and message or any other app, true feelings can be inhaled only through the real handwriting which someone writes with his/ her emotions embedded with the ink and paper. They are real and just never old. I do have a habit of writing the real letters to my beloved for expressing my guilt, love and happiness. I may be so outdated to write them as I hardly get anything in return physically or via letters. Hmm I am touched by Message in a bottle. The movie is yet to be watched.

I too had a love story

" I too had a love story "... No it's not about sharing my love story over here.May be most of you have guessed it right too.This title is not so new to think of once.This is already famous among the readers (The REAL readers and book lovers which I am surely not) .Yes I stated before too, I am not a good reader.I love to read short stories or short posts but I am not at all a Novel freak or book warm and I mean it .You can call it as an Honest Confession.

But the collision happened with me and my particular thought when I started reading "I Too Had A Love Story" by Ravinder Singh and I finished it within 3 days.Today I finished it.I read it like an iron rod sticking with the high power magnet.

The readers who have already read it may know why am I here to share my experience..

If you have ever loved someone then you can feel it or if you haven't fallen in love with someone then you can know what LOVE is or what happens and how does it feel like when you are in love.

It is the author's own love story which surely had the unexpected end [not disclosing for those who haven't read till]

From page no 187's first line to last line of the book I read all with a blurry vision as my eyes were full of tears.I could not control myself from weeping.I was feeling so helpless and mournful that I could not take rest today afternoon [I am sick so was on holiday to take rest].Even now also I am not able to come out of the total incident which happened to Mr.Ravinder Singh.

Those who haven't read it, I would like to request you to read it.

Some emotions which shook me from inside are trying to come up like this.

Every lines I could read,

were poking me

from inside to bleed ...

They sounded real,

and true to be true

which I could intensely feel ...

I learnt again to be in Love,

with the pages and lines turning around

found myself in the romantic puff ...

and roaming in the garden of Love

The same aura

mesmerized me and recreated an illusion,

to be in emotion ...

It was shaking my heart,

bringing back the memories to hurt...

But

All the love stories

do not end well,

What we wish and expect

sometimes don't happen in real..

I wish to God to not curse

anyone to have this pain,

of losing love and heart

and to make them insane..

Oh !! me as the BOOK Reader !!!

Just right after one week here I am blogging again..That too at this time ?? the office hours ??

My neck and my shoulder helped me to take out few times for my own when I am simply taking rest at my home and snatching out few leisure times to fulfill my hobbies..

So reading ?? hmm I am not a great and passionate crazy reader.I do read sometimes and that too few short stories.Today it was a strict order from my mother's side to not spend time in front of computer as it is causing a serious trouble ... But how can I stop that ?? How can I stop typing for this blogger.com when I have plenty of time on my hand ??

So suddenly today I thought to be a reader and took out this book from shelf and started to read.Only the first few pages could be finished.The book is so smart by it's name itself.. and so smart it's writing .. A kind of biography (only for LOVE ) narrated by Neeti Rustagi over her friend Durjoy Dutta.

And yes !! it has that capability to pull me up to read this until the last page of this book..

So readers !! if possible go for it ...
