Stay OPEN To LOVE!

Just as I previously mentioned, it would be utter foolishness on anyone’s part to try and define what is love...  But what I’ve learnt is that it manifests itself in small things and the most insignificant of our actions. Hence it is necessary to always keep love in our mind irrespective of whether we gain the expected benefits or not...

Picking up the phone and telling the affectionate words, the sincere apologies, the gratitude that we have been postponing since some time. Opening the door to someone who seeks our help. Pondering and taking a long due decision. Asking forgiveness for a mistake we have made, burying the personal ego. Demanding what we rightfully deserve. Gifting a dear one, a fresh flower of our choice, rather than a jewellery. Playing music loud when the person u love is far away, but playing it low when he/she is nearby. Discovering jobs or sports that can be done by two. Finding out ur comfort zone with ur partner. Not following any recipe, not even the ones contained in this paragraph, because love seeks creativity...

When nothing else is possible, when all that remains is loneliness all around n despair, then remember this simple childish story-

A rose dreamt day and night about bees but no bees landed on her soft petals. However, the flower continued to dream, often into long nights - of dozens of bees descending on her n kissing her lightly. By doing so, she was able to last till the next day to open its petals to the new sun. One day the moon, aware of her loneliness, asked her,

“Aren’t U tired of waiting?”

“Possibly,  but I can’t stop trying.”

“Why?”

“Because it I don’t smile to the world, if I chose to suffer within, if I don’t remain open, I will simply fade away.”

At times when loneliness seems to crush all beauty and hope, the only way to resist is to stay open to love and all humanity and stay true to our heart...

P.S.-Sorry 4 being away 4 so long!
