What Is Love


A discussion with a friend, the other day, got my wheels churning. It made me realise how misguided and delluded we can be about the concept of love.

It isnt our fault! Movies, novels and even fairytale have lead us to create a love bubble in our head. Here is how we imagine love.

"Love is this magical feeling that happens only once in life. You never know when it happens. When you fall in love, your every though, every decision is consumed by your lover. In love, there is no right or wrong. Love conquers all. If you truly love someone, they will surely, eventually, love you back! It is ok to let go of your self confidence for love. Love is all about the other person. When you love someone, it is ok to give everything up for them, loving them is more important than loving yourself!"

Isnt all this what we all have, practically, grown up percieving as love? Seems unfair, restrictive and a little impractical doesnt it? Who said that love has to be impractical. If it is something you have to live with, how can it make life so tough for you?

Now, i have been in love- the forever wala love. I have had crushes, infatuation and pure "what the hell?" attractions. From all those, and the incessant observation of my friends' experiences, here is what i conclude real, true love to be like.

"In love, you are almost best friends with your lover. You can speak about your dreams and aspirations, but have to hear out thiers too. Love doesnt conquer jealousy, infidelity or mistrust. So, in love, it is essential to communicate well. Love is something that has to be worked on everyday, like any other relationship. In love, you have the right to say no. In love, there are no compromises, only a few adjustments. In love, there HAS to be trust, else, you are wasting your time. In love, there is love. You need not prove it, show it or express it all the time. But make sure your do it every now and then. Lastly, love is not forever! People can fall out of love. So always ensure that your love is backed with respect and friendship, because they do last forever."

I know, i know! There are many who would disagree with me. Many who would claim that i havent understood love! But this is the love i believe in. This is the love i would like to live with.

She, The Woman

He was the one who made her want to change her self
He was the one to make her see
He was the one who made her think,
That "maybe, it isn't always about me".

He was the one who took her in rogue,
The one who showed her how pretty she could be
But he was also the one who took away
Her dignity, sanity and virginity.

He told her he would stay by her
Through thick and thin akin
But when the tough time came around the corner
He ran away, as far as can be.

Then one day, he saw her again
Finally healed and laughing cheerfully
Without a speck of shame he went up to her
And flashed a smile, full of audacity.

Blessed was she with composure and strength
She kept her grace and silence
And when he asked her how she had been,
She said "as fine as one can be".

But in the silence of the night,
She cried her tears of sorrow and pain
That night she made herself a vow
She promised "never will of consequence to me he will be".

Though she knew, that the scars will remain forever
That woman found her strength
She lived her life sans fears and tears
And found herself happiness, and said "yes, it is truly, just about me"

Love... at Last!

Is love really what its meant to be anymore? Speaking from a neutral point of view, barring a few exceptions, love seems to have become a game. A race of sorts, isn't it?

Being an Agony Babe, I have recieved a lot of letters and questions from lost youngsters, confused adults and concerned parents. Drawing a conclusion is only easy in this case. Let's face it, people have lost the genuineness that they need.

Why is it that a girl has to be the "fairest of them all" and a guy has be the "most charming in all the land"? Why can't people appreciate the finer things about the person?

Why is it that the color of the eyes matters more than thier honesty? Why does the clearness of the face matter more than the joy reflected when seeing a loved one? Why do manicured hands matter more than a determined mind? Suddenly, why has superficial attraction overridden a genuine bond?

A lot of people say that true love doesn't exist. I would blatantly disagree. Love exists, its just our courage to fall in love that has become rare to find.

Love comes with a lot of challanges. Quit seeking cheap thrills, seek the ultimate adventure! Take a chance, fall in love!

Lots of funda, right?? Well, think it through! This is where i sign off!

Men & Women

Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus they say... sometimes it becomes difficult to believe that men and women are so distant... the understanding of things... reactions etc... very alike...

And sometimes... i feel that its impossible that v are even from the same galaxy... such a difference in emotions and reactive behavior.

Men always say that women are complicated... the mood swings.. the yap yap... aaah!!!! And women say that men are also very difficult to fathom... the anger.. the possessiveness... the abusing... aaah!!!!

I think its high time we all just admit to the fact that yes, men and women are poles apart... but v are not from two different planets... v live on the same ol' planet earth... so its high time v stop trying to change each other... and "simplify" things... v should just accept the fact that there are differences and deal with it!!!

Mood swings in women are ordinarily vey subtle.. however due to the lack of tolerance it gets aggravated easily.... so .. men... try being sweet to your ladies if u find them moody one fine day... treat them like princesses... just dont go over board...

Men are possessive and protective cuz the care.... Women... we mother our men as well... being our shields is just their way of telling us that they care... so next time your man is getting protective... accept it... n if u dont like it... still accept it... cuz u cant really help it!!!

We all feel the pinch of emotions... why then does everyone try to camouflage it... men... women.... telling your loved one wat you truly feel is not rude n neither is it gay... it will only lead to better understanding between the two of you... n the relief to your friends will be an added bonus...

I really dont know the reason for all the gyaan in this post... guess i just needed to dish it out one more time!!! hope it helped you as a reader... if it dint.. n u still need help... call me!!!

cheers!!

to be loved

they say its often more beautiful to be loved than to love.... but, i wonder if anyone knows, that it hurts more not to love someone who loves you... cuz we can always make ourselves feel better bout the love that we lost, but we cannot make someone else feel better about us not loving them.... whatever said and done.... love, eitherways, brings pain!!!!

Love

love is a 4 letter word,

which for some reason i was never inclined toward,

then all of a sudden, i dont know y

even the mention of his name got me shy,

was this love,

i think so,

not just think,

i know so.

But then out of the blue,

i didnt find him near,

and for the first time,

my heart felt fear,

now, he is gone,

the light in my heart is dim,

that was once brightly shone,

will he i wonder ever come back?

to refill the joy, that i now lack?

The answer to this question, i know not,

Will i ever love some one the same, i know not.

for all i know for sure,

is that love comes with pain,

and i dont know, if i can ever love again.
