As I see it

You were born human . And you know why ? Just so that you could feel all the emotions other animals cant...acceptance, anticipation, surprise, anxiety, contempt, disgust, guilt, anger, hatred, fear, grief, hope, joy, desire, pleasure and so much more ... And the emotion that stands out most in us humans is love, of course.Its love that makes us feel all other emotions.Many say that is what makes us human ,our capability to love and love unconditionally. Yeahh !! read about it,heard about it,believed it once …and ya....what load of crap !!! Love is word created by us to define that which we could not understand after years and years of toil. So we decided to give a name to that which we do not understand and use the word as it suits us.And we have tried,tried to find the meaning of the word after it had been created,but with no success,and being hypocrites that we are,we use it as we can to fit our bills.

Something different happened one day.Someone came along who made us cry,made us laugh, held our hand,spoiled us and all of a sudden the person became the world to us.We believed this more than everything else,and very conveniently,called that love.And before we knew,we stood at the crossroads of our destiny,oblivious to the imminent and inevitable fall. And naïve as we were, we could hardly have even dreamt that what we held so dear,what we thought was the world to us could all have just been an illusion. Love took us beyond insanity and put us on a highway to hell.We took the fall ,crashed down real hard and it’s a miracle we made through it alive. We’ve heard great stories about people in love,and their love stood the test of time.They loved,suffered,lost everything… and still they never gave up love.They stood with each other through all pain and suffering,and though ununited even in death,their love still lives on to this day.And the love as we see today,though inspired so heavily from the sagas, fails to stand the simple test of time.

All the inconsistencies that love today exhibits,just makes me think that the great stories of the past are just myths, and if they aren’t ,are stories of people who were real insane.Human kind continues to exhibit the same insanity even to this day,only that this insanity is so impermanent,it actually becomes a subject of ridicule.Its like horse-back riding,all chills and thrills till you have the horse and its back under ur butt.Its all so confusing,not being able to decide what to believe and what not to..I decided to think with a level head.I pondered and then I came up with an explanation to suit me.Love isn’t spending the lifetime with one another, it isn’t living together or living for the other half,its not union in death or life thereafter.Love isn’t when time stands still…..Love is what you feel when someone makes you live only in the moment.It’s love when you live your life as you want to without any obligations or repercussion.It’s love when a moment retains its freshness and beauty whenever you come back to it.
