Redefining Love

Love is not liability, it is a responsibility...
It is not about having same hobbies, but it is about showing interest in each other’s...
It is not only about knowing the likes but knowing the dislikes too...
It is not, forgetting old friends, but it is about taking a Saturday off (from each other) and spending with them...
It does not happen at first sight but need constant conscious efforts….
It is not, losing one in each other, but it is about growing together...
It is transforming into parents one day to take care of each other and turning into siblings the next day to fight...
It is not, blindly supporting each other but presenting other perspectives...
It is not only saying comforting words to stop the tears, but it is also giving a hug and letting the tears fall...
It is not only about looking out for each other but about understanding other’s need for isolation…
It is not, going to exotic places for holidays; it is about spending the evening talking over a cup of tea...
It is holding bags while shopping; it is making pop corns before the telecast of a soccer match…
It is holding a stool while changing the bulb; it is tasting the salt less/ over salty food…
It is not, knowing each other completely; it is about not invading the inner most circle….
It is more about acceptance than about change….
It should be imperfect because perfection is stagnant….
It is STD/ISD calls, it is regular emails….
It is respect….
It is craziness, it is insanity…
It is freedom...
It is friendship…
It is a long conversation, it is communication…
It is not us, but it is you, me and us.

    i think if a guy totally understands this statement (along with a few crazy ideas of mine )... i might most willingly inflict him with the pain of marrying me and i wont regret it !!! (no guarantee taken for the guy !!! hee hee hee)...
