Commitment

Do you know I was committed said my niece to me one day....

Commitment...
Does the youth know what commitment stands for? What it requires??
Commitment is the name they have given to a feeling we call Infatuation or Teenage Love.
The truth is, what they call commitment is nothing more than Attraction. They explicitly convey it as love since they do not mind exploring... Its more like an experiment with their growing Hearts. I use the word Growing because there are stronger feelings in store for them in future.

A few phone calls, everyday meets at college, movie going, late night chats.... All these are taken to be signs of Love called as Commitment in their language. While Commitment is something you'd give everything you have including Yourself. Its because of these perceptions that youngsters end up with wrong people or with hurtful breakups that have a long lasting and bad effect on their Hearts..

This is not a discussion against the love of the Young Hearts... But a little caution and a better Understanding of True Feelings can lead their Hearts on the right track giving them Happy Experiences to Cherish throughout their Lives...

Love... But know what Love is before you Confess!!
Cheers!
God Bless!!

Past Love

I asked a friend if she's in love. To this she replied "I had been in a relationship for over two years. We made all efforts to be together, but after he got engaged, I decided I wont love again. May be I dont know if I'll ever love again" I did not rebuttal her further but just thought over it while I was alone.

How many of us have loved someone deeply? So much so that life without their companionship seems close to impossible. We are so into them that we dont want to imagine life without them. Also, after physical separation with our loved ones, how many of us readily accept that love is still there for us?

Many of us shut the doors of our hearts so hard that we dont realize that there is indeed abundant love for us. There is love of our family and friends which we recognize but there is also love of Someone Special as well. The love that we keep looking for all our lives. The one some of us dont find and some of us lose. What we dont know is that the love that we go in search for may expect things form us but the love that comes our way doesn't want anything but US. This holds true with regard to our family, friends and also that Special Someone.

So whenever your love walks away from you, remember that there is someone else who will walk towards you with his / her love for you and this love will teach you to love again.

"Life is a River, Everything Changes, Nothing Remains Forever. What Remain are the Memories of the Special people who've touched our lives like Waves..."

So there is no need to get away form their thoughts or the memories of the Past Love. Whats needed is that we dont build walls around our hearts. Because these walls will only make us forego the Love of our Future while we cry over the Love of our Past!!

Love Again!!
God Bless!!

Cheers to life!!

While getting dressed this morning, I stood in front of the mirror looking at my casual attire and wondering if the dress is okay to wear for a temple. When we make food, we ponder if people will like it. What if it doesn't taste like it should? We hesitate to talk to our parents about our relationships. A girl or a boy doesn't confess her or his love to someone worried what the other would think. Parents usually do not want their kids to "go Astray" because of societal fear. Employees do things to please their bosses just to ensure they have a good image in the boss's mind. Al's well if the Boss is happy!!

Many times we worry more about what others think about us than our own opinion about us. Of course opinion of our dear and loved ones does matter. But is it justice to let others take control of our thoughts and influence us every time, in everything we do??

From getting dressed to our speech, from confessing our love to sharing our feelings with our parents... We are always worried about what the other would think! Little Thing, Great Significance!!

Change is good but only if it is for ourselves. For all those who have changed themselves for others.... Please take time out and contemplate what has made you forget yourself. Ponder if the Change is worth it. Worry not about what others think about you, Talk your heart, Believe in yourself and Walk head high to make your existence felt. You are Yourself because of your Attributes (good & bad). Learn and Grow with every Experience. Don't get influenced and change Yourself!! After all... Its just one Life and we cant afford to lose it in thinking what others think about us!!

Cheers To Life!!
God Bless
