As we move on in life, we celebrate different “Days”. We have days for mothers, fathers, children, environment, lovers, pets; you name it and there is a day dedicated to any specimen who exist in this beautiful planet. Now that it’s Valentine’s Day, I couldn’t help but think about this very powerful emotion that surfaces (according to me on any given day but 14th Feb – technically) in the minds of millions of people. It is definitely a fact that if there is one emotion, that is ever so powerful, that it can cure the sickest of minds within no time it has to be - LOVE! The very pure and divine form of this emotion can create wonders!!
I happened to meet this young couple, the lady had delivered a baby girl less than a month ago and those cherished moments of seeing the mother-daughter bonding made me realize how powerful an emotion Love can be. It is amazing how our parents learn to love us right from the moment they know that they are about to welcome a little bundle of joy to this world. They don’t know you, you have no name, no face, no identity; but you are an integral part of their life and they love you for that! Now isn’t that amazing??More than the concept of romance, it is this thought that intrigues my mind on this day.
If I had to define love, difficult though it is, I will try. Love for me is moments, which can only be experienced!
Seeing a mother hold her new born child in her arms
A sacred bonding between a father and his daughter which no one else can ever understand
Walking in the rain with a loved one
To do something, purely to see the smile on someone’s face
To lie down in your mother’s lap
To gaze at the stars with no thoughts
To get a bear hug from a close friend when you are low
To laugh with someone so much that tears come out from your eyes
To watch the sunset
To surprise your parents, siblings, friends with something they never expected.
To fight with your sibling and patch up the next minute as if the war never existed!
To listen to your grandmother’s stories (even though you would have heard them over 100 times)
To dance as if no one is watching and love the energy that gets created in those moments!
The list could be endless though this is all that came to my mind at this moment. It is so important to be loved and somewhere that is all what our minds crave for, isn’t it??!!
