When my daughter will be old enough to fall in love, I will tell her—
Darling, don’t fall for the ones who will bring you flowers.
But for the ones who like to plant seeds.
For these are the ones who know how to truly care and help you grow your own garden.
Sweetheart, don’t get carried away by the ones driving hot Mercedes in fast lanes.
But for the ones who cover distances on feet. These are the ones who see wonder in small things.
They will walk you through some greatest Earth’s beauties.
I will tell her that it’s easy to get impressed by the ones who are glib talkers, heart throbbers of parties.
But sidestep them. Yes, sidestep them.
Instead, look for the ones who stand quietly in corners. The wallflowers.
For they are ones who know how to listen and listen earnestly. They won’t mind you ranting on your bad days.
I will tell her—
World is full of beautiful people. You just have to learn how to find them.
