Love to fight??????? Or fight for love??????????

Love makes the world go around. I am sure all of us have read and heard it many times over. But not until recently I realized the bigger picture.

Militants fight and kill, all for the LOVE for their country. Children fight because of the LOVE for their favorite toy. Politicians fight because of the love for power. Businessmen fight it out in the boardrooms for the love of money. Celebrities, more often than not, wash their dirty linen in the public, all for the love of fame. Even though it could be only 2 minutes of fame. Well atleast I find all these people to be selfish because they are fighting for individual interests.

But I always marvel at how two people with absolutely selfless intentions knowingly unknowingly end up fighting. Take a couple who are very much in love. More often than not, I have observed (and also from personal experience..:) that people who love only for love often fight more and more bitterly. The reasons could be as frivolous as one can imagine. Both will do things for each other, sometimes directly affecting that person, sometimes indirectly. And in the process they don’t even realize when they end up saying things that hurt their partners. And the worst part is you do everything in your power to make life as loving and comfortable for them, you don’t realize a thing and suddenly like a bolt from the blue there crops up a fight. And when you probe deeper it is nothing but the powerplay of emotions.

It has been rightly said by someone, “In Love, too much is not even enough”. And I guess it’s very much true. How much ever you love, there is always more that you want, more that you expect. The only irony is sometimes you end up hurting your loved one more in the bargain. Because each one of us tries to find that perfection in our loved one. But perfection can be very Relative!!!!!!!! It s got more to do with what we choose to see than what is there to see.

But as ‘SOMEONE’ says…it’s difficult to change, but it’s the effort that counts. So people…appreciate the efforts, fight less, love more, live more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)

Have a great life!!!!!!!!!!!!!
