During the Fa la la la
la season, friends and relatives who are home for the holidays whisper about
me – regarding my love life, to be more accurate.

“Single,” they say, as if it is some type of terminal illness they have to pity me for. But alas, she is “blooming,” some comment with
evident dubiosities. Tender-hearted
counterparts sympathize by suggesting, “it mustn’t be easy finding someone as
talented.” (Whoa, did I specify waiting
for someone with musical agile fingers? You folks must have heard wrong, I
meant to say agile heart and mind.) A
majority even go to the extent of asking, “What about that violin guy, Franz?”
(Yes, Franz. They’re still at it and I do not even bother to expostulate on the
matter. Can’t the best of friends say “I love you”
anymore without people becoming suspicious?!) Right, we cannot. Hahaha

While they chatter about me and cousin this, getting married
and cousin that, expecting a baby, I simply sit there amused.

I divert my eyes to the culinary festivities… the twinkling
dainty lights… and I gaze higher and witness Pyrotechnic choruses… but I look
up even higher…and behold, something brighter!
I see love. Love is there for me…
beyond mundane prattle… beyond that colossal wonderful moon… beyond those
spangling stars and luminous heavenly bodies… it is even too overwhelming to
imagine… so I close my eyes and place a hand on my chest… and Love! Right here in my heart…

Mmmm, what are you folks fussing about? =)
