What is Love?

Love is a feeling the definition of which keeps changing with time & age.

“Love is a mystic feeling & it makes u feel myriad emotions. The feelings are never stable. U might feel ecstatic at one moment and might feel agonized the very next. What matters is togetherness. Even if after lots of bickering, a couple stays together then it means that they are meant to be as one.”

In a nutshell, ’’Love means never having to say goodbye.’’

Our Hindi Music Industry has always churned out top-notch ’Love Songs’ for us to sing & cherish. Let me take u into this ’Mystic River of Love’. But first, lets have a word from me on - what else but Love.

Love has many forms. Love manifests itself in many ways. We all have been in love sometime in our lives. No one remains untouched by love. Once touched by love, u r bound to feel on cloud nine. Love is a wonderful feeling. Its heaven in the arms of ur lover. But love doesn’t always last. Sometimes, love fails. Though u never expected that to happen but it happened. ’’Why’’ - you would ask but won?t get any answer.

why did u break my heart.. why did u fall in love.. why did u go away..away..away..

When we break-up obviously it hurts. We feel depressed. But with time everything gets fine, howsoever cheesy it sounds, its a truth. Either we get a new love or revive with the old one. Time has a very significant relationship with love. Time nurtures love. Time is a test of love. When love survives all the odds, it lasts forever. Otherwise it ends & only memories remain. The old memories couldn’t be discarded easily. Howsoever hard u try, everything would remind u of ur lost love. U would feel like going back to him/her. In ur life sadness sets in & u just don’t let go of that feeling from ur heart.

tum bin jiya jaaye kaise.. kaise jiya jaaye tum bin.. sadiyon se lambi hai raatein.. sadiyon se lambe hue din..

But thats the way love is. Love follows a cycle - We love, lose & win in love again. Live life as per ur beliefs. Don’t change for someone. Even if u love him/her from the core of ur heart. Actually thats not love. Its just the illusion that makes u want a person with whom u don’t really get along well. Its just that sometimes u fall in love with the idea of falling in love. So, if someone breaks ur heart don’t let that affect ur life to an extent that u end up becoming a Devdas. If u can’t get Paro then forget her, accept that she isn’t made for u. By accepting it u r opening urself for new relationships.

ho gayi hai kisi se jo anban.. thaam le doosra koi daaman.. zindgani ki raahein ajab hai.. ho akela to laakhon hai dushman

Always bear in mind, its easy to fall in love but its difficult to be in love forever & ever. Love is a condition & for it to last forever, some amount of maturity is essential. And no one can teach u that. Its for u to learn by ur own experience. So go, fall in love, even if ur mind says otherwise give it a try if the wish came from ur heart. Always follow ur heart. U either break-up or u learn to accept each others? follies & grow up together. One of the two is bound to happen. So why worry?

chaand ne kuch kaha.. raat ne kuch suna.. tu bhi sun bekhabar.. pyar kar.. ohohooo pyar kar.. aayi hai chandani.. muhse kehne yahi.. meri gali mere ghar.. pyar kar.. ohohooo pyar kar..

Lastly, don’t follow whatever I’ve said. But just follow ur heart. If ur heart is saying fall in love with someone, then do it. Time will let u know if u made a right or a wrong decision. In case it was right then nothing like it. In case it wasn’t, never mind. Atleast now u know what u want from life. Every decision, right or wrong, has the capacity to teach u something. Wrong ones though are disastrous but nevertheless they are ur best mentors. Live & learn !!
