Keep it simple!

Its amazing to realise that someone in your life has the capacity to hurt you…what's more amazing is that once u do realise this, u still do nothing to change it! This could probably be one of the reasons why life is so complex. The creator must be wondering as to how simply we humans can complex our lives! All he sent us here to do was eat, sleep and procreate, but what do we do? We add emotions to it! To complex things more-these are not simple emotions like feeling satisfied after eating, feeling fresh after a good nights sleep and satiated after sex! The usual complex emotions are to worry about what we have just eaten; as to how it will alter our shapes and sizes! We wake up even more exhausted in the morning because the night before we spent worrying about what the next day is going to bring with it. Procreation the simplest of them all comes with added baggage- Does he love me? Does he care about me? I mean I can only imagine what the guy up there would be thinking while he sees us complexing things!


What is love? Yes the L word, what does it mean? The definition of love is- a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person. It could be a feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, as for a parent, child, or friend. That's simple to understand… then why are we scared of this word? Why are we scared of declaring our love for someone? Love is the simplest emotion and yet we find so many ways to complicate it! Why should love come with added responsibilities? You either love someone or you don't, period. There shouldn't be the 'I love you, but…' , 'i love you, if...' The ifs and buts are the trouble makers! We are scared of the ifs and buts in life and in love. We need to find a place where we can love someone without expectations. You might say that it's easier said than done, but to truly be content and happy in life we need to stop expecting! Unreasonable expectations complicate life. Imagine the simplicity of life without them. We would be liberated without expectations, humans would be free to think and act if we were devoid of expectations. We would express our love without being scared of being rejected. Life would indeed be SIMPLE!

it may sound ironic to you......but at times..we do have to give importance to the'if's' and 'buts'in order to be loved or rather to keep the love.....sigh!...but i do like your thoughts.

what i think supriya is that if we need to give the if's n but's importance then the love is jus not strong enough!
