To my sweetheart, with love.

Dearest Mercedes – Benz,

It’s been years that I have hidden my feelings for you deep in my heart. But seeing you turn 125 years old today (29^th Jan,2011), I couldn’t control my patience to tell you what I feel for you…..Baby, I’m truly, madly and deeply in love with you.

I don’t know how, but over the years that I have seen you, I have always been mesmerized by your class, your beauty, the attitude and the way you carry yourself. It has been close to 16 years that I fell for you and I have chased you ever since with the intention to flirt….but you continue to elude me. While my dad would be at work in his office at Nariman point those days, I would be roaming the streets of marine drive looking for you. The very sight of you being happy in safe hands gave me immense amount of happiness.

I swear on you darling, all these years, I have had crushes on BMWs, Audi, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Aston Martin, Harleys and other beauties but nothing could come close to my love and commitment for you, and it will remain for years to come. Never has it happened that you have zoomed past and I have not turned back to take a second look envying the lucky person owning you.

You have given the world the first front tire breaks, the seat belt, the traction control, the ABS, the first diesel car and countless other technologies which I can’t recollect as I write this love letter of mine…but I always agree to what your father said, “ There is a Mercedes in every car”. You have been a source of inspiration to everybody else….living by example…a pioneer in safety, comfort, class, luxury, beauty and sex appeal….It’s been 125 years to your birth but you look as elegant and pretty as before. I have always looked forward to your new designs and makeovers to blow me over. Though you have always looked gorgeous being a C class, E class, S class, M class, SLK, AMG, etc….but for me, you looked like my dream girl being an SLR Mclaren. I had you as ‘her’ on my desktop wallpaper for close to 3 years and would be lost in her sheer beauty every time.

Baby, I feel that I have a connection with you, may be from my past life. I know that I don’t have the money or the resources to make you mine now…..after all, loving you will be a costly affair... But sweetheart, I promise that I will do everything to make you mine one day….and keep you happy in every way I can...pamper you like my queen….We just need to be patient and hopeful to unite one day.

Sweetheart, consider this as my official ‘proposal’ for lifelong commitment because the day that I’m supposed to be on my knees, holding a ‘briefcase full of cash’ to ask you out looks a little distant to me as of now.

I will be waiting for your arrival in my life….and I hope you make the right choice too by becoming mine one day. Love you forever, always……yours and only yours…..Mohit
