"Love sees no return.."
How many times in our lives do we hear such quotations How many times are we asked to believe in it, and how many times do we tell ourselves just because we're going through a rough time with our lover? A lot, I am sure.
I personally believe in the very concept that Love is not just a word or a feeling. It's a huge responsibility given to us by our LORD to take care of someone from the ALMIGHTY's Creation! it's, in fact, a weird concept but I guess it's the most appropriate one when it comes to religious and worldly terms alike.
I loved when a doctor once said,"I am sorry, if your heart was literally broken, you wouldn't be alive today.." hehe! Medically, it's impossible. And Medical is what we kind of live on nowadays. Practically speaking, he was right. Emotionally speaking, well we got psychologists who would name tons of diseases telling us what's wrong with our head because of which we're feeling a certain thing. Depression, Anxiety, you name them!
I have gone through depression.. And believe me, it's not a good place to be in. But the best part is, it makes you realize the importance of your loved ones who stick to you even when you're in a complete car-crash sort of condition. You look ugly, you don't work fine, you sound horrible, but they still love you because you're their love! And if talking about 'Love'.. Then I personally believe that any person who can hold their love in their worst of all positions is a true lover. Most of the times, I have personally observed, relationships end because one of them gets sick and tired of the other one. They fight, they argue, they blame, they get irritated, they separate. And that's where it all ends.. Love ends!
In my perception of this feeling or responsibility, there is another idea to it. Devotion! Complete devotion to the one you are meant to be with. While watching A Beautiful Mind, a fantastic movie about a Schizophrenic Mathematician whose wife sticks to him and stays with him till the very end. And as he receives his Nobel Prize, his speech only consists of praises and really nice words for his wife. And he accepts that only because of her, he was standing in the most successful moment of his life. Yes, giving all you have for that one person, is Love! In the beginning of their married life, we see that Alishia, wife of John Nash (the Mathematician), does not get much return for her love for him. And as time passes, things become worse. His hallucinations start to take over his mind and he starts to confuse the fantasy with reality. But only when he himself puts just a little effort to be with her, she gives it all to him. If she had wanted a return, then there would be no John Nash, and there would be no "Beautiful Mind".. I cannot believe I am stating a movie as my concept, but all I want to point out is, when Love is real, when it finds its way, only a little effort can make a huge difference. All we need to literally differentiate between is, fantasy and reality.
Love does not have to be complicated. Love is not pain. Separation is pain, distance is pain, difference is pain, but love... is not! If love were pain, then there would be no poets claiming it to be ALLAH's biggest blessing.
I personally think, Love is Divine! ALLAH puts it in the hearts of those people who are honest and responsible enough to not only hold their own selves, but be the true care takers of another human being. It does expect a return, but does not demand one. If we love our CREATOR, we would love HIS creation! And we would definitely put all our efforts, literally, to love that one person from HIS creation whom ALLAH has chosen for us, as our sole mate!
Love is for the committed, honest and brave ones... Who are ready to sacrifice, yet smile. Have faith, yet face the worst. It's as simple as ABC! All you have to do is, put your effort, be brave and 'be a man'.
