love affair

Here is a rundown of a movie which I love to watch occasionally,

Hoping, that as time is ticking he would find the path that would lead him home…& realize that a part of him is longing to be in harmony with love.

I remember a very romantic story of two strangers who met on a plane, the woman was engaged to be married, the man was also seeing someone, they met, they talked & it so happened that a storm was on their way, this was the story line and it was more favorable to get to know each other deeply. Having been stranded on a familiar place, the man invited the lady to go visit someone very dear to his heart. (would a man do this if he only met you for a day, or few hours perhaps?) The man introduced him as a fiancée (which is not). The old lady which they visited happens to adore the man (she is the grandmother by the way)

Here is the part of the story which I really loved (& loved watching). The grandmother was playing the piano, & the lady was humming along with eyes closed… & guess what? The man was admiringly looking at her ( oh!....how I love this scene…silly me) You know why I love it? It’s the hum, its beautiful, makes you fall in love over & over again…I know that you’ve all watched this movie in your lifetime, but let me get on with my version hehehe…

After a few days being stranded together, they parted ways with a promise of a date in the empire state building. Life goes on, & here comes the unforgettable day of their life…The man was there, but the lady wasn’t…

To conclude with the story, they ended up together after a few years had gone by. HOW? They accidentally met again one christmas evening, when the man visited her at home just for old times’ sake, but it got farther than that when the man saw “the painting” (he recognized the painting which he made & meant to give her on their date). In some way that painting which he painted led him to her, he remembered that he sold that painting to a restaurant owner,after he waited in the rain with no sign of the lady & with deep frustrations. Not that she didn’t come, but because she couldn’t make it, she met an accident (on that same day that they were to meet in the empire state building) which took both her legs, & for some reason, she couldn’t walk for the rest of her life. The man wasn’t aware why she didn’t come. Why she couldn’t come…only now he could see why…

Its an old story & its been told & written many times…By the way, this movie is entitled “LOVE AFFAIR” with Annette Bening & Warren Beatty as stars… A part of me relates to it…
