Dear Diary,
As always, life sucks. This time it’s my
love life. More like the lack of it. Ever since I was a kid I dreamt of
becoming just one thing. An apsara (celestial nymph) - a woman so beautiful
that no man could ever resist.
And of all of them, there was just one
that I badly wanted to be; the one that I had to be – Menka; one of the five
most beautiful women ever to exist in the universe; the one whose intervention
lead to the beginning of my favorite love story – Shakuntala; the one woman who
broke Vishwamitra’s long spell of abstinence. And so began my journey in search
of my Vishwamitra years back in high school. Don’t judge me. I was 14. I had no
better goals in life back then. As a matter of fact, I still have nothing better
to do. Who wants to be a boring finance guy?
Continuing with my story. In pursuit of my
Vishwamitra I searched years for the perfect candidate. At last, I found him.
Now that I have found him my ego is bruised, 50 shades of black and blue. If it
was not torn into little pieces it is definitely bent hell out of proportion
now. Ouch.
No, I did not get rejected but he clearly
isn’t interested.
Ok, that might be a rejection. Might be.
This is all my fault. Of all the people I
could be, I wanted to be I decided to be Menka. When she approaches
Vishwamitra, he ignores her so hard that she doubts her own existence. She
dances, he is still unimpressed, “Meh!”
Lord of wind intervenes and the dog in him
awakens. What else did I think was going to happen with me differently? And I
don’t need a dog.
But I have learnt a lesson from all this.
Whoever you aim to be in your life, never ever dream of becoming Menka. The
only thing you will ever get from all this is an unimpressed uninterested
Vishwamitra who would rather work than pay heed to you.
Therefore, I now have a new role model, a
new vision for the future – Urvashi, another apsara, who also happens to be one
of the five most beautiful women ever to be in existence, only, she is prettier
than Menka and has a higher success rate. Talk about choosing the right mentor.
Bitches, I’m going to be unstoppable.
Vishwamitra you are history. My Urvashi future here I come.
I’m only going to go up from here. Next
phase Draupadi – definitely the better one with smarter husbands. Till then
will fulfill the mission of being the next Urvashi.
Signing out. Have preparations to do.
