relationship-love-life

What does it mean by a relationship in this modern world ? What does it mean by actually loving someone? What does it represent to be madly in love?

We find many instances/cases in our day to day society. Some falling in love, some ditching each other, some using each other for some purposes etc etc. Love has become an necessity, where people NEED it, not FEEL it. I do not know whether they actually feel it or not. But I am sure they just want to be in a relationship to gratify some of their need, may be physical or emotional or sometimes just a show off. The goal is to have a boy/girl friend so that they can enjoy each other's company. And when it will come to marriage they all fear of their typical caste/class consciousness. They cannot even tell about their boy/girl friend to their parents because they love their parents so much that they just cannot think of doing such insane thing. But before falling in love, I am sure they have not thought about their parents at all. "I don't want to live without you", "I will die without you", "You are the best for me", "We are made for each other" are just the lines without any meaning for them. They use just for the sake of saying something. Or may be at the time of using they know the meaning but after sometime they can't be able to accumulate the meanings from these lines. 

All these are fake. Love is  fake, and so also a relationship. They know how to use each other for a certain period of time and after everything is over, they go forward for a loving wife/husband to live happily ever after. And these small love stories have become actually  "love stories". They also say "if we will be there with each other for a lifetime then we can't make our love a love story", there is instances of stories like "Heer-Ranjha", "Anarkali", "Romeo-Juliet" etc etc....these fellows couldn't be together so we know them, if they would have been together than there would never be a love story. So to make their love alive they do this (sounds very very funny) !

Everything has become very mechanical. It takes time to accept such things in our society. I was wondering how could people do this to themselves. May be they are more practical. I wonder how could these people forget all these after a certain period of time. Then suddenly I realized our society is changing in a greater speed. We are accepting western values in every sphere of our life. We become so familiar with concepts like live-in-relationship, lesbianism, gay ism....so why not using each other as boy/girl friend. Every body wants to have a good life and everybody want to have a good family, they are always aware for that. If doing so is not making any harm to each other, so why can't they go for that. Sometimes its mutual. Before everything they just clarify that if they will not find appropriate for each other they will not marry. At they end they do so and for that they don't regret at all. And they should not. Every body has a right to live and has a right to express his/her feelings. So whats the need of portraying himself/herself as ideal in front of others. 

Live for yourself. Because society don't pay for you, and should not be aware what others will think. Do whatever you think good. Because its your life. Live it fully, live happily.

This is the season of yellow beautiful Amaltas. The roads are full of yellow petals. I certainly love this. The way from old transit house to ad block is full of these trees which give us ultimate relaxation when we go through the path. I like to take a walk through this, admiring the beauty of nature.
