Why Love Hurts?

Every soul enroute it's life span
at one time wonders,
at another frets.
Wonders when views others fail and fall,
frets when it itself fumbles and stumbles, 
on the semi-illumined and semi-dark alleys of love i.e the sublimest of all the human emotions. 
Why love hurts is perhaps the only question that to all humans haunts.
Why love hurts so much is a question that is being pondered by sages since ages.
The heartless question abounds around the absence of exalted and untainted love,
unsullied love that's pivotal for the peace and harmony, 
for human growth and the solitary life sustaining hope.
Why siblings' blood turns white
and there is no inhibition while picking up the knife against one's own brothers in hand just for a piece of land ?
Why emotions go so deadly cold ,
when the old wrinkled hands of parents,
which once made their offspring stand with sweat of their brow are brazenly lead to old age homes?
Why true love is easily sold for comforts and bricks of gold?
Why in the name of region , religion,  caste and creed ruthlessly innocent blood is shed?
Why more than empathy and sympathy,  violence and arrogance reigns?
Why Love has taken a backseat and greed holds the steering wheel?
Why one and only one waits?
Why there are others who know only how to take and have nothing in lieu to confer?
Why all hue and cry is for rights?
Why there are hardly a few respondible shoulders to sustain whatever is intrinsically good and isn't innately fake?
Fact is love is always lost and definitely hurts,
when more than will to sacrifice is the expectation,
when truthfulness is replaced with manipulation,
when more than 'us and our' there is only 'me and mine',
when more than emotions gifts and valuables are counted,
When inherent latent talents and traits are ignored and only faults are traced and even little lapse is without failure every time pointed. 
Love is entirely vanished when power that is wielded is only meant for control,  
when only one enjoys the right to speak,
when voice of others falls on deaf ears,
and  callous smiles are worn blatantly  when every second pair of eyes in the vicinity are  adorned with tears.
Still the question why love hurts so much remains unanswered, 
Since no one for sure knows how come the pristine spring of love can be both bitter and sweet.

Working Mom

  The title of this write-up may make no sense and might seem whimsical to some. Yet, I couldn't think of any other, though I did try to run the horses of my mind for hours to replace it with a better one. Anyhow, its content, I hope, is worth reading. This may sound contrary to me,a language teacher who always guided  pupils to choose eye-catching and gripping titles for their work. Yesterday, a phone call from my twenty-one-year-old daughter led to a discussion  about the parents’ rights over children. I, being a mother, feel that a mother—being the carrier of her baby in the womb for nine long months and then bringing the baby into this world with unimaginable pain has rights to advocate. I told her about how difficult it is for a mother to stay away from her children, especially toddlers. I shared with her the hardest choice I had to make when she was just one and a half years old and my elder child was  three. It was one of the toughest years of my marriage....

When Skill Meets Determination:A Salon, A Story and a Salute

Since time immemorial, both men and women have wished, ventured, and craved to look good, better, and sometimes the best. In every nook and corner of the world, whether in a bustling city, a quiet suburb, or a small village, salons and beauty parlours stand as testimony to this universal desire. With each generation, the dependence on such services has grown, shortcuts have become acceptable, and professional grooming has turned into a necessity rather than a luxury. This observation isn’t a conclusion drawn from research; it is born from personal experience with my twenty-one-year-old daughter. Having recently begun to manage her life independently, she is particular about her appearance and outlook. For the past three years, she has been living abroad and returns home every December for a month. During this time, she sweetly wishes to be pampered in every possible way. One such indulgence is getting her hair washed and blow-dried at a salon so that her curtain bangs remai...

Silence

Silence is serene. Silence is solace. In several ways, silence saves the savage soul. Silence is static, strong, like sky-kissing mountains circling a sleepy hill town. Silence is somber when it stems from sadness. Silence strives to sleep over sickening strategies. Silence confers the childlike sleep upon the soulful, while it steals the peace of the soulless. Silence smiles and silences all conjectures. For a few, silence is a sweet remedy; for others, silence is a malady. For some, silence is a question impossible to crack. For others, silence is the answer to every crux. For some, silence is a shield. For others, the sharpest knife, the searing scythe. Most times, aparently silence saves bonds. At times, it breaks them into forms unrecognizable. Silence wears the face of a silent sage, yet stands indisputed as  a symbol of untamed rage. Life screams. Death silences. silence is a voice in itself, raising walls too high for unwanted noise to climb. Silence is a misunderstood path...
