Once again after a year, it’s time that I have decided to jot down my thoughts... with a hope it’s not the last time I write something this year and continue writing in this space... (hopefully regularly)!!!
The topic I choose today is something we all know about and love to hear about - "Love Stories"... certainly a topic that has been lingering in my mind since some time which is the reason why it’s been put into words. We've all heard about love stories.. Some of us experienced them in real life, a few see it in others lives, while others just believe in them and live their own Love Story.
However the most famous Love Stories of all times that come to our mind when ever spoken of are Romeo-Juliet, Heer-Ranjha, Laila-Majnu, and Saleem-Anarkali...etc. But ever wondered what was it that made these lovers sooo famous? Was it the love? The sacrifice? Their fight for their love? The opposition by the society? But these are the things that many lovers face during their various stages of relationship.. Some make it to the "happily wedded life" and some just lose hope n give up. Then what was it that made these love stories so famous even though they were just like any other normal lovers one sees/experiences around them?
My abstract/weird/different thoughts looked at them with a different angle; there was something common that I saw in these Love Stories. Even though they did everything of the above, yet they never met or were not allowed to meet. They sacrificed their life in order to be with one another, yet it never happened that they could be together. This is the only reason why, these love stories have become famous. Think of any famous lovers who are stated an example of true love; they were never allowed to live happily together. Thinking of the most divine form of love ever mentioned in the Hindu mythology, Radha-Krishna, they too had to stay apart and live separately to perform their respective duties towards their spouses.. weird yet true...a question that always hit me... Even though Radha truly loved Krishna why did he not marry her... guess their love story had to be famous ?? (to be taken as light humour and not as direct attack to religious beliefs)
Not that I stand by the thought that other love stories are not true or there is no love in them, but they are definitely not famous. They end up being just another simple sweet love story.
Also, Again I'm not encouraging any famous love story incidents for your love story to hit the charts, neither am I vouching for the not so successful relationships as true love.. As they might just have been infatuations, attractions, desires, fun time, time pass... with a "little" bit of love..
So all you lovers out there.. See where your love story falls in.. And I hope that it surely becomes successful even though it may not be famous ... ;)
Keep Smiling
Loads a LOVE (stories)

You thought so much about love stories and wrote too.... well its nice that u share your thoughts....but love can definitely happen wid detachment tooo....so wat if u cant be with the person??????? so wat if things dont work out?????? may be its for the best....atleast the two can be alive n still have the love for each other in their heart just like Radha and Krishna.
love is best when its actions are also towards the happiness and well being of the concerned person.
Anonymous,Thanx for the comment...
Well said... But I have clearly mentioned the same in my post towards the end - "Not that I stand by the thought that other love stories are not true or there is no love in them, but they are definitely not famous."
The point here im making is why I think certain stories have become famous... and not on the integrity level of Love!!! Nor did i mention that those seperated don love one another!!!
anyways appreciate ur efforts to comment ... thanx again
Dear Rikhav
Every love story is beautiful n special ..... and if some r known to others.... its just a happening
But for every person his/her or some close friend's story is special and it need not be known to others. it does not need others appreciation,comparison or evaluation.
it again happens cause its meant to happen.
i dont intend to disagree with you... just puttin my point forward
Dearest Anonymous,
We are jus going in circles here...
You've been putting forward the same point repeatedily that I've mentioned already ... I definitely agree with watever you have said as I have already mentioned it in the original post..
Repeating myself the topic here is "Famous Love Stories" and not the speciality,beautifulness, appreciation,comparison or evalutaion level of them.. as all love stories are special n beautiful and definitely does not seek appreciation, comparison or evaluation!!
Cheers..
Loadsa love!!
thats because the alternative is that they end in marriage. and thats just cruel. :P
hahahahahaha.... are u saying that love marriages are cruel??? or the alternative of love... i.e. arranged marriages are cruel??
im afraid I din get u here!!!
ofcourse you didn't. I'm saying marriages are cruel.
well havent experienced them personally so wont comment on its cruelty...
but yeah.. we all are "majorly" the outcome of successful marriages.. whether love or arranged... guess we are not an outcome of some cruelty... are we?
we are not a result of marriage. We are a result of fucking.
ohhh really.... thanx for the information!!!
however my choice of vocabulary for the same would be much of an acceptable level and not the choice of words by you...
I would rather say we are a product of our parents "love making" session...
Also by far, and majorly, children are born after being married.. however otherwise the process is aborted in the initial stages or prevented by various contraceptive measures..
not jus any action of sex neccessarily has to lead to childbirth... its usually after marriage is a childbirth encouraged..
PS: not to forget there may have been mishaps where the parent wishes to or is forced to be a single parent
