CUPID STRIKES…YET AGAIN ?? !!!!!




“WE LIVE ONCE AND FALL IN LOVE ONCE .. .LOVE HAPPENS ONLY ONCE AND REST IS JUST LIFE”… yaaaawn ! corny cliched lines from a romantic candyfloss flick which I was watching ( read bearing) while I was travelling on my way back to Pune. The movie was a treatise on love, trivia of the heart and the sacrifice and hardship a relationship entails. . but the question is do we fall in love only once ? How many of us really do agree that Cupid strikes only once? The immortal love stories penned by the biggest authors of all da times- Romeo Juliet , Lakme Gerard, Devdas Paro Mirza Sahiba, Sassi Punnun Sohni Mahiwal Heer Ranjha etc etc. Are they baseless or kinda abstract?Why the bards like Keats, Shakespeare, Wordworth, Milton wrote endless verses on this thing called ‘eternal’ love . Though  not a veteran to comment on this topic, I would like to share my views. I belive that one keeps falling in love not once but zillion times unless he/she finds the right one . Rest I think are infatuations, lust or hankering around.There are many people whom we meet in the journey of our lives who are compatible with us and bring out the best in us n often we fall for them knowingly or unknowingly. U may disagree with my opinion on this point but I feel that love isn't something that ever really ever fades, it's like a sweet smell that keeps lingering throughout your life. One can fall out of an infatuation or lust, but one cannot fall out of true love . True love is deeper than what most idiots think it is anyway

Brian Andrew says - People come into your life for a reason. a season, or a lifetime. When you figure out which it is, you know exactly what to do. True that, love is something which takes efforts and time to build. To find that someone whom you can see yourself and still be compatible even after fifty years, who can bear the ugly side of you,laugh with you,cry with you,can heighten your spirits during hardship.As they say, the real test of love is growing in love, nurturing it through time and commitment, and developing in the qualities of love. Everything else is fleeting ……
