L.O.V.E


This is how much I love writing…. Writing here after months…. Moody Me
And thanks to me sitting all idle these days that I am getting these random thoughts in my mind which I at times impersonate in my words. And mostly, all my posts centre around just one thought L.O.V.E….
No matter how much people say that ‘besides love’ there are other important things in life but at the centre and the destination of the journey is ALWAYS love. Be it for oneself or for others.
I consider myself really lucky that my life is awarded with every form of love that a person needs. Love from family, partner, friends and the most important ‘My God’.
LOVE – a word so important, and still ridiculed. Once a friend told me ‘In love, you can change yourself. It holds the power to make you just do anything’. So true… And if this one thing is so strong enough to change oneself, how come is it a mere mockery to some? Be it for parents, or for your partner……. I fail to understand the idea behind sending your parents to old age homes and having numerous websites dedicated to ‘hatred quotes for your partner’………
Such random wannabe losers degrade the basic human values we are endowed with.
And so if I extend my thinking about these stupid losers, all what I can think of is that they are missing the essence of life. Maybe they have never felt the excitement, anxiousness and happiness that one feels within. Nor have they known the joy of making someone feel special and loved. I fail to understand if life exists in such darkness.
If I look back at all my years gone by, I see myself breaking up and standing up at occasions, but at the end, the only consistent thing in my life was that I was blessed with love. And in future also, things would come and shatter you, but if one introspects, love always envelope people in some form or the other.
I guess it’s the most benevolent feeling or word or whatever. People buffoon it, but still it never leaves their side. And a step higher, if this thought is even taken spiritually, I feel some people are not blessed enough to love. Maybe not even deserving…..If u cannot love your parents, if you cannot love that one person who stands by you in all thick and thin, u no more than a failure in itself ….. Such a waste of life……..
I do not have any idea why have I written this, but seeing people so allergic to love and inconsiderate to their near ones could not stop from me from scribbling down these thoughts. I am grateful to God for giving me such wonderful people in my life who love me madly and because of whom I am whatever I am today. I am soooooo vella and frustrated and irritated at times but my life is fun… Because its filled with L.O.V.E J

Nice post ... I completely agree with the love for parents part ... I live away from my home town and I frequently go back because my parents are alone over there ... yeah, people make fun of me for always going back home, but I don't care ... perhaps they don't love their parents like I do ...

Somehow I have never been able to understand romantic love ... I obviously don't ridicule people who are into it ... I have felt things for different girls, but I never knew if that feeling is love or something else ...

Anyway, I think I have said it before ... you should write more often, you write well ... take care!

thanks saif.... Even the same used to happen with me. when I was in my first year of college, I used to commute on my own, the first time ever.... And I used to always ring up my mom when I stepped in college, every morning.... n my friends still make fun of that........
But who cares, parents insecurities, fears only a child can understand. :)

And as far as your 'romantic love' is concerned, I hope the best for you enters in your life soon :)
N I myself hope that I write more often....

Thank You...... Take Care!

Well ... haha ... I'm not really craving to be in a romantic relationship, if it has to happen it will happen ...

but yes, I'm doing my PhD in different kinds of intimate relationships, including romantic relationships ... since you are in a relationship, so maybe wen the time comes I'll ask u and ur guy to volunteer for my research :D ... obviously if u want to :)

Hey... Good one..!! I was just inquisitive if you have an idea where you got this LOVE pic in the article...
Actually I have a pic near a similar 'LOVE Fountain'.. I was wondering how many like these do they have around... :P
Once again, where is this LOVE pic taken.. :)
Cheers

Neha said...

hey Van, actually i got dis pic from google images..... no idea frm where it ws originally taken

Vanquisher said...

Wow..!! The world is really a small place.. Actually this is a fountain in downtown Philadelphia, US... There's a very popular belief associated with this particular place.. The LOVE sign actually rests on a hollow stand.. It is said that a black man was being chased by fellow men when he was running away with a white girl.. It is believed that they stood under this LOVE sign and that somehow made them invisible to the guys after them.. The 2 of them stayed beneath the sign for 2 days before leaving the town forever. So now whenever anybody has any problems.. Girlfrnd-Boyfrnd, Family matters, personal issues...they visit this place to talk over them. Believed some power resides here which eases all the hatred with the power of LOVE...
Its really strange how well this myth/belief complements your article.. You had put that LOVE pic just casually out of Google, but it does means a lot.. :)
Cheers
