What is love (Maya)? It is one of the
most difficult questions for the mankind. Centuries
have passed by, relationships have bloomed and so has
love. But no one can give the proper definition of love.
To some Love is friendship set on fire for others Maybe
love is like luck. You have to go all the way to find
it. No matter how you define it or feel it, love is
the eternal truth in the history of mankind.
Love is patient, love is kind. It has no envy, nor
it boasts itself and it is never proud. It rejoices
over the evil and is the truth seeker. Love protects;
preserves and hopes for the positive aspect of life.
Always stand steadfast in love, not fall into it. It
is like the dream of your matter of affection coming
true. Love can occur between two or more individuals.
It bonds them and connects them in a unified link of
trust, intimacy and interdependence. It enhances the
relationship and comforts the soul. Love should be experienced
and not just felt. The depth of love can not be measured.
Look at the relationship between a mother and a child.
The mother loves the child unconditionally and it can
not be measured at all. A different dimension can be
attained between any relationships with the magic of
love. Love can be created. You just need to focus on
the goodness of the other person. If this can be done
easily, then you can also love easily. And remember
we all have some positive aspect in us, no matter how
bad our deeds maybe. And as God said ?Love all?
 Depending
on context, love can be of different varieties. Romantic
love is a deep, intense and unending. It shared on a
very intimate and interpersonal and sexual relationship.
The term Platonic love, familial love and religious
love are also matter of great affection. It is more
of desire, preference and feelings. The meaning of love
will change with each different relationship and depends
more on its concept of depth, versatility, and complexity.
But at times the very existence of love is questioned.
Some say it is false and meaningless. It says that it
never exist, because there has been many instances of
hatred and brutality in relationships. The history of
our world has witnessed many such events. There has
been hatred between brothers, parents and children,
sibling rivalry and spouses have failed each other.
Friends have betrayed each other; the son has killed
his parents for the throne, the count is endless. Even
the modern generation is also facing with such dilemmas
everyday. But ?love? is not responsible for that. It
is us, the people, who have forgotten the meaning of
love and have undertaken such gruesome apathy.
In the past the study of philosophy and religion has
done many speculations on the phenomenon of love. But
love has always ruled, in music, poetry, paintings,
sculptor and literature. Psychology has also done lot
of dissection to the essence of love, just like what
biology, anthropology and neuroscience has also done
to it.
Psychology portrays love as a cognitive phenomenon
with a social cause. It is said to have three components
in the book of psychology: Intimacy, Commitment, and
Passion. Also, in an ancient proverb love is defined
as a high form of tolerance. And this view has been
accepted and advocated by both philosophers and scholars.
Love also includes compatibility. But it is more of
journey to the unknown when the concept of compatibility
comes into picture. Maybe the person whom we see in
front of us, may be least compatible than the person
who is miles away. We might talk to each other and portray
that we love each other, but practically we do not end
up into any relationship. Also in compatibility, the
key is to think about the long term successful relationship,
not a short journey. We need to understand each other
and must always remember that no body is perfect.
Be together, share your joy and sorrow, understand
each other, provide space to each other, but always
be there for each others need. And surely love will
blossom to strengthen your relationship with your matter
of affection.
Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.
William Shakespeare.
