love

10th January 2009

The strongest emotion, the cause of our existence, the entire creation: LOVE.
So vast and boundless as the horizon that we look at when we stand at the shores of the sea, as deep as the oceans that reveals its beauty only when we dive deeper and deeper into its untouched world with all the colour, splendour and marvels. It is like the sun which we cannot see with the naked eye but just feeling the warmth and cannot thank the almighty enough. Like the cold shelter of the silver moon, showers of the rain, the smell of the flowers, the gurgling of the river over rough stones and smoothening of their rough edges.

It is the feeling which made god to make us and this world for us. It is as pure as the tears of a mother when she holds her child for the first time in her arms and keeps the creation going. It is in the innocence of the eyes of the unspoken animals and birds. It is the mother of all emotions, the originator of the need for our existence. It is the language of GOD and the proof of the live manifestation of life in all its form and splendour.

I often think that when god made all of us, be it nature or humans and instilled us with the basic emotion of love, why do we fail to preserve it? Are we incapable or still in the stage of evolution from ape to humans that in spite of achieving material heights we are still mentally underdeveloped to understand what WE actually need.

We are hypocrites that we call our selves humans but what we have actually become is no better than just money making machines and still fighting for more.

I wonder and wonder when I would find an answer to this wondering of mine, that when the entire creation can follow its commitment to GOD, then why can’t we stick to what we believe, what we want and what we say. Sincerely sad. I think the world then could have been a much better place.

Actually a strange emotion that begins from the heart transforms the soul and the mind and comes out as tears that bruise our entire existence. Still we have to live without life, with emotions chained down, with eyes polished with tears and a smile as beautiful as a pearl shut inside an oyster.

The amount of effort we make to earn a month’s salary, even if we put one fourth of the effort to feel, spread and preserve this treasure, life could be so much of an experience that all of us would die to live a thousand times more.
