Preamble

27 Apr

Everybody has the fundamental right to be loved exactly the way they want to be.

Not differently, no less and without compromise.

If that’s not it, then it’s not worth it.

    Waves back madly!! Thanks for the tagline 🙂

    And the Preamble is a good beginning.. may be we could begin by loving ourselves, and not being too harsh on ourselves?!

    Preamble and a fundamental right.

    Someone’s rewriting the constitution here 🙂

    Can we just include it in the Constitution and get done with it?
    Politicians will then include it in their speeches to say ” Roti, kapda,makaan and permission to wait for love the way you want to be loved” ? 🙂
    * I so did not want to translate that in hindi 🙂 *

    Everybody has the fundamental right to be loved exactly the way they want to be, but the reciprocation is not guaranteed by any right whatsoever. 😉

    Tamanna: I have a word for that. It’s called totalutely. 🙂

    Anjali: Have you been talking to my therapist? 😛

    smartassbride: It *would* take a smartass to notice. 😉

    M…: 😆

    Dev: Nope, never is!

    dipali: *Hug*

    susie: You bet, sistah. It’s fiction alright.

    I would love to believe that, but providence tells me otherwise.

    But, I repeat.
    I would love to believe that.<3
    I used to, atleast! 😛

    @Orange Jammies That’s a dorky thing to say. A ‘right’ is a demand, and you can’t demand love, you command it.

    If you rephrased that as “…fundamental right to EXPECT to be loved” then you’d at least be technically correct. But then there’s nothing technical about love.

    And helloooo, will you please stop writing these one line posts and getting us all argumentative. 😦

    I am waiting for another one your lumbaa-chaudaa sermonesque posts that got me here in the first place.

    Jaldi karo.

    p.s. Sum peepul will just not get off their bums and blog I say!

    @Orange Jammies Unless you meant to say…everybody has the fundamental right to be *made love to* exactly the way they want. That I agree with. 🙂

    sana & Nino’s Mum: That’s sad. Really.

    Guy: I don’t believe I’m about to spoil you rotten. Mega post coming up just this once, y’hear? Don’t push your luck.

    Sangeetha: Ah, those may take a lifetime. 🙂

    sukanya: And then there’s people who tell me I think too much! You’re welcome.
