Love is an inexplicable emotion that has mystified people since generations, it is the one emotion that has started as many wars as it has ended, It is the one emotion that has had endless songs and stories written, it is the one emotion that makes friends into foes and foes into friends. So many legends surround this emotion , from the goddess athena and helen of troy to shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Nothing can possibly define this four lettered word and whatever does define it will continue to be an understatement. It is love that makes the world go round, for whatever reasons it may be. love is a divine blessing, it is a boon sent from heaven. it is a greatest healer since time immemorial. Because it is love which conquers all and it is love alone that gives us t he joie di viverie.
Love comes in our lives in various forms .friendship is one of the ideal manifestations of love. Love can be defined as an emotional trigger which gives us a sense of belonging, a feeling that someone or something which when you cling to will make you hang on to the thread of life. for eg: if we possess something which is very dear to us and suddenly it remains no more we feel a sense of loss. this sense of loss is triggered because of a sense of belonging for that particular object. in our mundane life we love things which give us a sense of belonging because it gives us a sense of acceptance. it is love which has hope which in turn makes people connect to that thing , be it a human an animal an object in the most desperate of situations.
From love the world begins, through love it grows, love is the strength in the world, love is joy for all. in short love is the essence of life. the loss of love is death. Love is inspiration , message, a hope and it pervades all. it is love of mankind that makes us pity the suffering, it is love alone that makes us assist the weak and to forget the wrongs. the warmth of loving words helps us destroy prejudices to do the best that can be done. this is the religion of love.
Love has hope because it saves mankind from commiting one of the seven deadly sins,ie despair. it is true that love has hope whereas hatred is hopeless because love heals but hatred causes anarchy and discord . hatred and force cannot be in just a part of the world without having its diverse effect on the rest of the world. hatred is the mother of all evil. hatred leads us to nowhere because one's emotions is channelized in a direction where there is no ray of light, in short it is a hopeless endeavour to hate. hatred leads to destruction not only to one's own self but also of mankind. it was the german dictator Adolf Hitler who believed that he was the descendant of the Aryans -the most civilized nation and therefore he hated the jews so much so that he caused the heinous crime of the holocaust and later on the two world wars. This explicitly justifies hatred as a hopeless endeavour.
The widespread terrorist atttacks , wars and unjustifiable invasions have become the order of this globalised era. people have lost their moorings for one another. this world has become a battleground for mortal combat and therefore humankind has turned into a civilization of beasts. the question that arises here is that what is the reason behind all these . the answer is that it is hatred which leads man to commit such irrational acts. those people who commit dastardly acts of terrorism do it under the impulse of hatred. these people dont realize that retaliating by hurting others doesn’t solve the situation. on the other hands it proves to be a hopeless endeavou and the problem returns back to square one.
Hatred can serve one soul purpose and that is to usher mankind into the limbo of oblivion. the current s cenario of the world presents a picture of the violence and terror of wars and of man's unparelellled brutality. hatred causes all round convulsion which further paves the way towards a hopeless endeavour of wreaking vengeance which leads to no where.
It is love alone that can make this world a better place to live in. it is love alone which can bridge the gulf among people , communities and nations and prevent the world from the scourges of war .the united nations has declared the year 2009 as an international year of reconciliation. it aims at saving the succeeding generatins from the scourge of wars and to bring about international peace confirming to the principles of justice and international law and settlement of international disputes or situation which might lead to a breach of the peace . it also aims at practicing tolerance and living in harmony with one another.
It has been truly said by a sage that "the best thing is not to hate anyone ,only to love, that is the only way out of it . as soon as you have forgotten those whom u hate you have gotten rid of them. Then you have no reason to hate, you just forget because it is a hopeless endeavour to hate."
good one :)
