Que Serra Serra ,whatever will be ,will be ......




Have you ever lost something that was more precious to you than your own life ? Someone special  who was meant to be yours forever but now isn't ?  Have you lost someone you loved unconditionally and then realized over time  that the love reciprocated was only conditional .

Believe me ,it hurts . Hurts like hell .
So , what does one do in a situation like this ? You're hurt and you are expected to smile as if nothing ever happened . We don't grieve over a love lost in this lifetime. Not the norm . Not the done thing .Why do we only grieve when somebody dies and is put to rest physically ? Isn't a love lost , memory forsaken as good as a part of you dying ? We go into mourning when somebody passes away but we can't mourn a death of a relationship . That does not equate death ,one would say .After all the heart bounces back and we only mourn because they can never come back . They can never come back . What's gone is gone .
Often I hear a person saying ' Oh I wish I had known, I wanted to tell him so many times that I loved him . There are regrets made , kind words said ,memories relived .
But does that really matter to that person who is now bereft of any emotions ,any feelings ? The fact is - No !
That loss is tremendous . All your dreams that have been attached to that particular loss just come crashing down . Fragments of that loss just blow away from your reach . Beyond the hope of ever finding them . Never let something you hold so dearly just slip away . I have learnt that . Be glad you got it in the first place . Never blame the other either .You had it and you let it go . Why blame anyone but yourself ? I have read this on a poster 'If you love someone set them free ,if they come back ,they are yours .If they don't they were never yours . '

 I have this lifetime to see if this holds true .In the meanwhile,if anyone has experienced this in his lifetime ,do let me know because life becomes more hopeful .

    1. What you are talking about is hurt that stays on even after the pain borne out of a breach of trust resides.
      Love does not hurt-it is gentle and caring not to hurt the person it touches.

  3. “If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. If they don't, they never were.”― Khalil Gibran. Gibran is the third best-selling poet of all time, behind Shakespeare and Lao-Tzu.
    The bare truth is that relationships break down for numerous reasons-incompatibilities, infidelity, selfishness, jealousy, insecurity, dominion to name a few. We mustn’t confuse the intense attachment out of pleasure during the honeymoon period with love; and it is often too late when we realize it and prefer to hang on to the relationship just because we do not want to upset the apple cart or are frightened of change and its consequences.
    A relationship is a partnership between two people based on love, a mutual understanding, personal boundaries and above all space. You cannot get into a relationship as a means to an end-provision-lifestyle-comfort-security-love-comfort-unity in thought and action. A relationship grows out of the small things in life and bears rich fruit with a much bigger perspective in view-happiness-comfort-love-unity in thought and action-security-provision taken into account your partner can provide for you.
    If often takes a lifetime to find a good person and if you do hold on to him for he is more precious than anything this world can ever offer you.
    Sometime even if you get the person back you might never want him because a relationship grows and matures with time-it changes without changing so to speak. A relationship that looses out on the process of growth leading towards maturity is often incomplete and looses the trust factor that is forged out of being able to stand up for each other.
    Very few men have the grace to admit their faults and make adjustments for the women they love. The line you have quoted has a fairy tale like magic but is quite far from reality because most humans in this time and age have lost their purity in thought, deed and action.

A ball of confusion

                                                                                               Earth from the view point of a Martian ( if he exists) If we isolate ourselves from Earth , getting away some distance from our world ,it would help us focus our attention on what it is otherwise too obvious to notice while we stay on it . To see what we may be really like it will help if  we  put ourselves into the  shoes of a "Martian," if he happens to wear such an invention of the earth in the first place  .  So what do Martians see of Planet Earth ? What they see today is a population of over six billion people crawling out from every nook and corner like caterpillars . Now ,almost all of  this six billion devote a signific...

ISOLATION ON UNCHARTERED WATERS

                                           I have often wondered why being  diagnosed with depression, anxiety or any other mental disorder is so hard to conceive by other so called normal human beings. I know a person who is very close  to my heart . In her late 30s, she fell into depression and her state compounded two fold as her husband and his family failed to see this as a disease that can afflict anyone. Responsibilities such as two growing up children and a disgruntled family weighed on her shoulders and her condition became worse . She was a compassionate, caring individual earlier  but became  hyper sensitive, emotionally reactive over time and  responded to everyone  badly.She was  perceived increasingly difficult  to who ever she knew ,including myself .During calmer times, she discussed this extensively with me but I was obliv...

Does anyone have the answers to these without looking into Google?

                                          Why do we blink with both eyes simultaneously ? Interesting questions, not answered by anyone without the help of Google . Here are some more. Why do we laugh when something funny happens? We may think it is just obvious that laughter as opposed to,let's  say, scratching one's ear or hiccuping is the appropriate response to humour, but why is it? Why are some female shapes sexy and others not? Isn't it obvious? Just look at them!  But that is not the end of it. The obvious and most automatic responses to the world do indeed shout out  that they are a part of "human nature," but that still leaves the question of why ?  Well then does anyone know the answers to really basic questions ? Do they even care to rack their brains ? Do they care to explore on their own ? Do they experiment on their own so that they can cough up som...
