Its all about Love

Well just a few days back I went to one of my friend's home to do joint study as my exams are coming up but as we all know what joint study at friend's house mean.....so we had a good time chatting and discusing about some good old things..... and then she stared telling me about her boyfriend...about how they met...how they conveyed to eachother their feelings .......what problems they faced...the tears the joys the sorrows!At one time she told me,"you know what it doesn't matter if we can't get married later due to any problems......it doesn't matter if he finds someone more deserving than me....what matters is the beautiful time we had spent together....whatever happens I won't be able to forget him...nor the memories we shared!"

Then I realized perhaps thats what Love should be!In love it shouldn't matter if you get reciprocated feelings from that person or not....what matters is the beautiful memories which are going tobe treasured by you all the time.......Just one small glimpse of your loved one....just one look from your loved one....just one touch.....one word....maybe enough to suffice the void!You may feel the pain of not getting your love...but you wil always remeber those very private those very trivial to all but the most treasured to you things you shared!

Thus I'm made to think if the most bautiful gift you get in love is to get the love in return or this unfulfilled wish,this pain, this sorrow, this small but beautiful thingsthat you get in love is? Isn't unfulfilled love made the poem "The Last ride Together" by Robert Browning an immortal one?Isn't the most read romantic books are those where the love remains unfulfilled?Dont know the answer....but can anyone answer me this?

its easy to talk about Platonic Love, which is beyond sexuality, beyond expectations and selfless... but this is in most of the cases theoritical. when sumbody romantically loves another person, he/she surely expects a minimum bit of commitment, we dont have a heart large enuf to keep on loving no matter what. practically, in today's "cold, brutal world" nobody pays heed to the other's sentiments and in some very unfortunate cases, doesn't let go the chance to exploit the other. so its kinda foolish to become stagnant and ponder over a case which has no future possibilities. its better to take life as it comes and ride the waves.... nd enjoy it. but its true that the memories remain tobe deeply etched into the heart and are hardly forgettable.

newayz, its nice to see you here after a long time.
