Love's labour lost-1

As I contemplate and try to figure what would be the most apt way of encompassing what different emotions mean,I'm pleasantly surprised to recognize the fact that the inspiration to this might be someone who I merely scoffed at once,which now seems almost human since I chose to judge not realizing my own shortcomings;I hope I can forgive myself,the great injustice suffered by the judge rather than the one who was being judged.I made the mistake but was fortunate that life smiled and showed me her lovely forgiving guise rather than the harsh and rebuking one that many cynical mortals like yours truly may actually deserve.What is love?I may not be able to do justice to this wonderful emotion but mere words never did actually suffice,to say the least.Some are blessed to have known its different facets,felt it,experienced its healing and often miraculous effect.When I reflect,ponder and reminisce about the past now which seems like an age gone by,I realize that I was engulfed in this Elysium that was carved out by mere mortals just like me whose actions would live on and reflect upon the intention of our creations in a spirited and almost ethereal manner.I will ever be grateful to these wonderful people and more so to one particular individual who embodied the impossible in a delightful and awe inspiring way.I judged her,lest I will be judged and she was the beacon of light that shone through when I was being dragged deep down into a hell which my inhibitions had etched out.I thank her now but a mere thanks would be a rather poor return;a smile sweeps across my face when I realize that she did nothing to gain a profitable return,I smile,for she would have definitely berated me for being so terribly materialistic.Words fail me when I think of her and ironic as it may seem,I try hard to immortalize her in my rather poor rendering of these very words which will never be successful in captivating the essence of what she will always mean.

  1. Cautionary advice: u'll have to bear with me :P
    judging comes to us as naturally as breathing. most of the time, sadly, we judge and look the other way missing out on the things that could've questioned our judgement. when you judged this special individual however things unraveled in the most unexpected way that caught your attention and saved you from a dangerous delusion. you judged yourself. so ultimately making the unintentional mistake of judging her wasn't so bad after all... :)
