Love -- Have fun. Fall in love

Love - It all begins at home for most of us , my mom was the more stricter one at home, and dad my first love , not because he got stuffs for me , but because he always made me feel special, I was and I guess I am still his “gudiya” :), he has been always so patient and calm (well there were times when I made him impatient and wild :)) , and he unknowingly taught me to believe that there is always

 hope if there is just a ounce of love involved what ever the situation is :) - met him for last Christmas , saw him sleeping with kids – Esther & Jude and I after putting Ezekiel to sleep, tired , like a kid slipped next to him kept my head on his chest listening to his “dub dub” and held his ear (something I used to do as a kid – to ensure he does not go away :)) ... He hugged me and both of us had eyes full of tears … he just said “Meri Gudiya” and I kissed him good night …. many arguments and heated discussions have happened in the years gone by, but that moment it was love for each other which just washed away all those differences .. but it did take me time to show that gesture of love … guess it was my ego which was coming in between ..

pareshaan? :)

Anilji – aap mujhse pakk toh nahi gaye ? I ask this question once in a while -- :) his first response – kyoun tum bore ho gayi ho kya ? ki reality check karr rahi hoo ? :D and I usually hug him and say “Just like that, to know where do I stand - yea reality check” - its going to be 9 years of marriage almost 14 years of knowing each other , have gone through good and not so good phases of life and he has been always there for me. He is more disciplined , more patient than me, and must say deserves kudos for “jhelofying” my mood changes , stubbornness, temper, coming late home after work , sometime just freaking out on silly things. Whenever I give up he persists , when ever loose my cool and scream he keeps his cool giving me the look , I will be back to normal in a while ... So I ask again - "mujhse pareshaan toh nahi ho"? Now looking at at me he says - There are times when i do get "Pareshaan" but over all Life is Good ! :D

Love - Feel affection for, adore, worship, be in love with, be devoted to, care for, find irresistible, be keen on, be fond of – these are the meaning I find in thesaurus for the word “Love” In Sanskrit there are 96 different words for the word Love – and I wonder “Kitney Kanjoos hai hum is ek shabd ko use karne mein” - maybe because we have very limited understanding of the word Love – and maybe because of limited understanding – we are also miss understood .. think about it when was the last time you told anybody “Love you “ ur spouse, your kids, your parents , your friends , people who matter to you or did something to show you cared for people around ?- why are we so stingy in expressing our affection ? Is it because we think by expressing our love and affection we expose our weakness, or is it because we think our gesture will be misinterpreted , or we think we will be taken for a ride and our feeling will be exploited, .. what is it which stops us from sharing love with people around .. .. as i had mentioned in my earlier post - we meet so many people in our life and few change our lives, we like some of them, we love some of them, we care for them , even though we would not have expressed it explicitly and vice versa we know there are people/friends/cusins we care for and they care for us, there can be misunderstandings but when you have love for each other you can stand anything :) it is ok to express what good you feel about the other person.It is ok to be liked by the other people - just respect each others feeling and be clear of your priorities - life gets better for you and for others this way :)
