First Love of Radha Kishan : True Love
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. The above verse describes true love. You realize that these qualities can be found in all truly loving relationships. When one falls in love, he/she will find the world so beautiful. Every thing is lively and colorful for them. They feel happy and elated. They feel that they are top of the world. They start believing that they are in true love. But, are they sure? Can it be true love? In fact, it takes time to decide if their love is true love or not. We may get confused with infatuation as love. Infatuation is not a commitment. It is just a temporary phase of attraction and may not last long. When the people involved understand each other and become intimate, they may realize that they are in love. Love is a commitment. Love is all about sharing ideas, decisions, feelings, goals and everything. Above all trust plays a major role. In true love, the partners trust each other, understand each other and are ready to sacrifice anything for each other. Even if the lovers have complete commitment and have complete trust in their love, we can not say that they are in true love. True love need to stand the test of time and temperament of the individuals involved. True love can never be separated. True love can be characterized as humble, generous and magnanimous. Selfishness and jealousy, just, will not find place in true love. Ramana Maharshi says "Mourning is not the index of true love. It reflects love of the object, of its shape only, but that is not love. True love is shown by the certainty that the object of love is in the Self and that it can never become non-existent. We all have come across the great true love stories of Laila-Majnu, Devdas, Romeo-Juliet etc. What is common in all these stories? It is the pure true love and their commitment to each other even in the adverse situations. Most of these stories end up tragedies. Will the true love end up in tragedy? Not really. These stories glorify the sacrifices of true love You may think that you are in true love. But, do you believe in your partner? Did you ever fight with the partner and abused? Are there any ego issues between you? What would you do if you are held up in a serious work and your partner calls you and wants you to be next him/her as he/she is depressed? One needs to be practical and ensure the balance between professional life as well as personal life. Do you want to experience true love? Unfortunately, you can not plan to have true love. It is an inner feeling and can not be suggested or motivated. You have to be clear of selfishness and ego. You must have the commitment and be willing understand and give your best to your partner, at any cost. If you are in true love, you do not think that it is love, but consider that as inseparable bond with your lover. If you want to know how the lovers feel and do in true love read the this love story of mine. I have written of what I have experienced in true love. You will certainly enjoy it. Author:Radha Kishan
