Love: A reality or a game?

Dear Readers, you may get hurt after reading this post…but it’s just my opinion which I see around me these days, with this article I may be wrong but then I am writing….Please try to bear it.

Dhai akshar prem ka pade so pandit hoye!! I read this line many times but in practical I am unable to understand this dhai aksher. Few months back there was a discussion going on the topic of LOVE in our alumni forum. People were discussing about its meaning. I still think what is Love? Anyway, I have my own opinion about this, as I think ‘LOVE’ is not a simple word to be looked into dictionary and understand the exact meaning. In fact Philosophers and Intellectuals have been unsuccessful in defining love.

We find love in almost all relationships and I feel love is there, but when it comes to couple’s point…..I get confused and think, does it really exist? I heared a lot about love from people and I do not ever agreed with them. Sometimes, I found myself thinking about them and questioning my trust and belief on people. Also, I used to ask myself, it is after all only sentence that has three words – “I Love You.” Yet, how many of us are able to get the courage to say just those three words? Even if someone (guy to gal and vice versa) says ‘I LOVE U’. Does it mean same?? Well, I am not refusing the fact that it is a wonderful thing to say….maybe I have never been used to saying this sentence to my parents…but then, there might be so many other ways to express love and I am sure these gestures are always understood. I know each person’s expression and experience of love is individual and each person’s understanding of love is different from the next. Sometimes these are just mere silent words. ‘Silence speaks louder than words’ – the most important thing is to convey the sentiment, no matter what medium we follow- spoken word, written word, silent word or action! And of course one has to follow the traditions that are Compulsory in one’s life. ( By traditions I am referring to marriage)

Let me be clear here, I am talking about couples dealing with their love before marriage (affair, dates, romance). I wonder, is it still alive in this materialistic world or it’s just a wonderful time pass for them? What I see the “game” around me- “Love is really a game of how many hearts you can break, how many people you can make cry in their lives in your life time..!” What I feel is a great ignorance for emotions of one’s own and others as well. Feelings and all faith is lost. If you talk about sense of right or wrong logically, you are an obsolete, conservative and you are not so called a modern person who can speak English with fake American style like ‘Sko” (Let’s go!).

Love means the presence of a heart but in present scenario about 90% people are using each other in the name of love and I found myself completely immature and unable to understand this simple word till now.

I think to see someone in love is like seeing a Dinosaur. Hey friends, don’t get scared. No, no I am not talking about a scary look of dinosaur. What I mean to say, love is becoming extinct just like dinosaur who existed hundreds and thousands of year ago. In fact love is on the age of becoming extinct.

 Thanks for reading and tolerating my article…….. 🙂
