The Universal Language - LOVE

P.N : People who 'term' themselves to be highly 'pragmatic' and above any emotion can safely ignore this post.

If you had to color this part of the year, without contention it would be 'Red' - the color of 'Love'. I will dedicate this post to all the beautiful people and the relations I have and will share with them and the most special one - Mizza/Mols.

With the onset of spring (vasanta rutu), there is an enchanting fragrance which fills the air and makes this month extremely special. So its also nature's way of celebrating and expressing its love towards us. A few days back, FB and other social networking sites were inundated with hearts, chocolates, greetings, flowers, quotes and what not. Suddenly there is a lull. This makes me think if the emotion or expression of 'love' is bound to just one day or the 'V-day' or confined to lovers. Love doesn't require a special day or an occasion to be celebrated or expressed. Nor is it limited by any boundary of region, religion, caste, creed, society or category of an organism. It is beyond and above any expectation or obligation. It is the universal language that is commonly spoken and understood by all existing consciously or unconsciously. However, it is also the most misunderstood and loosely used term. As P.B. Shelley puts its:

                               "One word is too often profaned to thee to profane it;
                                              One word is too falsely disdained for thee to disdain it."

 The first expression that ever existed was 'Love'. God's several creations are the outcome of 'Love'. Nature's existence and its elements aiding human survival are expressions of 'Love' towards mankind. We may not have seen God but each one of us would have felt 'Love' of our parents, siblings, relatives, friends and loved one. Love is trans-nation, trans-being and trans-belief. It is the single delicate thread that binds us, that makes our heart beat, that gives us the reason to exist and that makes our living worthwhile. It is the single universal expression seen in nature and its creatures. The world without love would be like the body without blood - anaemic and dead. Can we even imagine a world devoid of love? Not for a moment. Because its all encompassing, its subsisting. We may not be close to our loved ones but our hearts still beat for them bringing a smile on our face because the invisible thread binds us. Love is what makes a 'relation' a 'relation' in true sense. Its the core ingredient of life and the true meaning of life. 

Love loses its shine whenever 'greed' takes over the human race and thereby begins the fight between love and greed. What we and the world needs today is love and more love. This is what will make our life more meaningful.The Bible also says:

                                           "Love thy neighbour as thyself"

Lets Love and spread love after all its the only universal language and means to Peace and Happiness. :)
