When we here of love what is the very first thing that strikes our mind ?? Perhaps love is to make others happy, get happy seeing the one’s you love , all sorts of giving and taking , basically our thoughts dwell in a fantasy world.
Starting from an age of 5 to 10 probably – “being a child” we used to define love on the following basis-
When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You know that your name is safe in their mouth.”
“Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other.”
“Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs.”
“Love is what makes you smile when you’re tired.”
Love is when my mother makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK.”
Above mentioned analogies are just a reflection of what we have seen not yet experienced.
Then comes an age where we start analyzing things , there is an urge to live through the feeling of “being loved”,experience it on our own ,thinking it to be one of the purest and happiest feeling.Some succeed in their process of being loved and to love,some face heart-breaks ,some are there to showcase love and then get cheated or becomes the doer.All situations can be referred to one’s thinking process or their mindset about what love actually is.For some it may be a time pass thing and as soon as they get bored they start ignoring it,to some it becomes their life,and to some it becomes the cause of their death (in real or virtual),but surely it does happen.
So far ,the question still remains unanswered – WHAT IS LOVE ALL ABOUT
Love is the driver for all great stories: not just romantic love, but the love of parent for child, for family, for country. It is the point before consummation of it that fascinates: what separates you from love, the obstacles that stand in its way.Love is basically a feeling not needed to be reciprocated,only to be felt be it of any kind,it should be free from expectations ,fantasies,and evil thoughts. As soon as even one of the above mentioned thing creeps in your mind the feeling of love is lost,then it becomes a war,game of ego,competition,jealousy ,revenge and what not but love. It is truly an unconditional feeling which actually makes life better if it’s pure but makes it hell if it is a mixture of jealousy , expectations, assertions etc. MBC.
