My very own Rhett Butler
Jagadish has long insisted I read ‘Gone with the Wind’. It was also made into an Academy-Award winning movie whose re release poster you see above. It’s a book he absolutely adores, and I never had any real interest in the so-called classics. I love mystery, thrillers, and some comic relief. Yet, he persuaded me to buy this and I did, and it lay around a few days when I finally picked it up after my exams.
I was hooked! I read the book straight through in two days. What a beautiful, beautiful story. For those who have not yet read this book, I implore you, read it! It is amazing. Here is a synopsis of the plot.
Today, all of a sudden, I thought of Rhett. And I thought of Jagadish. Today morning, I woke up in a fairly pleasant mood, but I was suddenly cross with Jagadish because of a few issues. As I always do when I get annoyed, I went quiet and refused to talk to him. Jagadish is an absolute mine of incredible patience. Very gently, kindly and soothingly, he brought me out of this moodiness of mine. It is little things like these that jolt me to the reality of how much he really loves me.
He reminded me of Rhett. Not that Rhett was kind or gentle. But Rhett so obviously loved Scarlett. He always let her have her way. He teased her, played along with her…made her smile, made her alive. Like how Jagadish makes me feel. Scarlett could stomp around, be mean to him, make him mad, and yet, he would continue to love her. Like Jagadish loves me.
Rhett was so practical, so thoughtful. Uncaring about what the society believed was right, but of a sound mind that knew what he was doing or did was not wrong, not immoral. Oh, he reminds of my Jagadish in so many ways now that I think of it.
Anyway, once again, today, I am thankful to God for putting Jagadish in the path of my life. He is my very own Rhett Butler.
(And I’m not going to be as stupid as Scarlett to let him go 
)
