Oscar Wilde said that "Deceiving others. That is what the world calls a romance.".....
This is not to 'declare' the fact that the man was a true 'genius' in every sense of the word or talk of his capacity to conjure sheer magic with words.......... How often has one felt that they have come across something so marvelous that you cannot express it in words...... There are people who stream into tears the moment they hear something remotely romantic (as you may have guessed- I am not a hopeless romantic in the sense it is popularly noted)...... The true essence of romance I believe is lost in time....... It exists like a rare antique that is protected in its paucity, to be savoured by only its true connoisseurs........ But one wonders wether everyone does go through this fleeting yet ubiquitous feeling.......... If you ask my opinion.... its almost impossible not to go through it at one point or another as romance exists everywhere.... from a scintillating wine glass to the sprawling sea...... Its impossible not to feel it once just as it is not possible to live and not breathe........
