First Love of Radha Kishan : My Love
I went to a wedding ceremony of a friend's sister. It was a grand affair with hundreds of guests, full of happiness, fun and color. In Indian weddings, every one is their best dress. Many parents, even, force their children to come in their most presentable form. It is untold fact that more than one marriage get fixed in that gathering. As usual, I was looking around at all those pretty girls. A lightning struck me and then, I felt that I found my love! She was pretty, standing in a group of other pretty girls. She was not talking much. She was just smiling all the time. I just stood there staring at my love, hoping that she will look at me some time.
And my hope did not materialize as she did not look at me. I was confused, if she has seen me and had ignored? I can never be sure. I did not have courage to walk to my love and introduce myself. I was hoping some one will introduce me to her. And nothing of that sort happened. The wedding ceremony was over and I went back home with a sort of mixed feeling of seeing some one attractive and a sad feeling of already missing her!
I got employed and got busy. I almost forgot my love, Then again I saw her in a shopping mall. I could not believe that, it is her. She was with another friend in the food-court, just across me. Now that, I am no more a hesitant boy, just walked to her and introduced myself and referred the wedding, where 'should' have met and told her how cold I felt in my knees to go and meet her. She laughed it off. I also realized that, she is the sister of my other friend.
Now that, I know, where to reach her, it has become easy for me to approach my love. Somehow, I managed to impress her and could take her out. She seems to have liked me, though she did not mention anything. One day I mustered my courage and proposed to her. I was on cloud nine when she said smilingly, 'would not mind'.
Being a traditional Indian boy, I have more things to address, Traditional Indian boys do not simply propose to a girl and get married. We have to consider family traditions, rituals and values. Marriage is a big event and we invite all friends and relatives. It was also easy for me to convince my parents about my love and send a marriage proposal to the parents of the girl. As I am reasonably well employed with good family background, the girl's parents seem to have no objection. And then we got married and lived happily ever after.
And then, in our marriage, I know for sure there would have been many broken hearts, many happy souls like me when I met my love first. What would have happened, if I have not been to that wedding? If I had seen that girl only in the coffee shop in the shopping mall, would that same magic of love struck me? I am not sure. I was mature and was not really looking at girls, like I did during those early years. Probably, I would not even have noticed my love in that coffee shop. Now that, I did, I am happy!!
This was actually my friend's first love story in his own words. Read My love story here. This was my first true love. You can compare the two love stories and decide what is first love and what are the feelings of first love. If you are still not in True love pray to God to give you your first love. There is nothing in this life without love. You will be a person without heart if you dont find love in this life. I always feel why not God give love to every person in this world. Actually some people are selfish and greed of money. Thats why they dont get true love in their life. You need to open your heart and love others if you need love from them. Give away your ego and selfishness and your love will be soon near you. Just a slight taste of love would be enough to make life full of joy and happiness.
