So what is love?

So, what is love? Hmmmm... interesting topic eh....
Well, quite a topic for sure. For me, Love is a feeling of oneness, a feeling that i really care for you, a feeling that I can go that extra mile to make you feel good or smile.

Well, as per the above definition there are just about 4 people I really really love. And yea, they all happen to be my close family. My dear Mom and Dad, my loving brother and my soulmate, lourdes.

I love them too much to even tell them, that I cant live without them. Everyday, when i rise, I thank God for the wonderful day and thank him for giving me 4 wonderful people whom I can talk to and share my thoughts with. The funniest thing about the 'L' feeling is that sometimes you can easily say that sweet word, whereas sometimes, you cant say it, but there is a unseen connection that conveys this emotion.

My brother Adrian and I have not spent a whole lot of time together. He always had his set of friends and I had mine. The he got busy with his hockey career and left home for an independent life. Time passed and soon I left home for my job. And suddenly, it is almost 10 years since we have spent like 1 month together at home or even together.

But, if there is one person for whom I can goto any lengths in this whole wide world, it is Shanu. And I am sure, even he feels the same way. Unbelievable, but we dont even speak very often. And when we are at home the talking is even more rare. But deep inside there is this connection, an invisible cord, a strong power that binds us together. This is love. We dont speak much, we dont share much time, but yes, we love each other more than anything.

On the other hand, I have my dear Lourdes. I speak to her twice a day. Once in the morning and once in the evening. We dont discuss the whole world, but just an update of what is happening, what is cooking, how was the day and whats new? I tell her that I love her atleast 15 times a day. She is a sweetheart. I cannot imagine living without her. She makes me complete. I make sure I call her and convery my feeling everyday. Else, my day would not be complete. Here i love the person and luckily i can express my feelings too.

Isnt it wonderful, that how the same feeling is expressed in 2 very different and opposite ways. The ingredients of the LOVE receipe are the same, but the way the dish is served is absolutely different. Life could not be any sweeter for me right now. The only reason for this is my 4 loved ones. Thank you guys, I miss you every second that I breathe!!

Love and Regards,
Ashu
