Falling in Love

Isn’t it beautiful when you fall in love! Life is just wonderful. Nothing bothers you. You’re glowing, happy and smiling and you’re in a protective bubble where nothing can vex you, not even a parking ticket!

It’s not just the falling in love either, it’s the being in it and staying in it that makes people feel so deep-down happy and content.

My friend Coco is in the first flush of love at the moment. She’s been in love before but nothing quite like this. She’s been totally smitten for the past six weeks and by the looks of things, he’s 100 per cent smitten with Coco too. She loves his hair, his eyes, his nose, his mouth, his skin, his voice, his clothes, his toes! She loves the way he makes her feel, they way he looks at her, the way he touches her and the way he kisses her.

She gives me a blow by blow account of everything, from the way he eats to the way he belches. There are some things I wish she would keep to herself but she’s just brimming over with passion that it’s difficult for her to keep it all inside.

I’m very happy for Coco; very happy indeed. The feeling of love is quite intoxicating. So intoxicating that when I see her these days, just looking at her beaming makes me feel like I too am being splashed with whatever it is that’s spilling from of her cup overflowing with love!
