Nice Question radha <br>..<br>
What is the essnece of love, Aakhir ishq ki bulandi o imtiyaaz kya hai ?
If someone analyses the love stories of the world a strikingly major part
of timeless love literature would contain love tragedies.<br>..<br>
According to me there are two main reasons for this firstly, grief in itself is a feeling much more profound in nature than happiness. If you analyze for a moment you will see that Happiness is ephemeral while grief is not so short lived and has some immortalish tendencies to it.<br>..<br>
So if this feeling is attached to love then love itself becomes immortal. You might have noticed that
Pain and Grief changes people, You might have seen people change their lifestyles their thinking
and even their personalities due to grief, on the same note how many times did you see a permanent and profound change in someone due to happiness ?<br>..<br>
Happiness is a wonderful feeling but it gives you momentary pleasure and is not aeonian or
lasting in terms of existing in print or folklore, in the sense that it cannot be easily imparted to the
onlooker.<br>..<br>
Pain on the other hand is easily felt even if you dont know the greived and hence the touchstone for
love is always the gargantuan capacity of these very unsucessful lovers to bear grief in the quest for their beloved.<br>..<br>
Another very important factor is that truthfulness of any relationship is best probed tested and tried
in the worst of conditions and these failed souls of love were in those very situations and came out
victorious by giving the ultimate in sacrifice,.... their life.<br>..<br>
What else can a human being give more in sacrifice other than the thing which made him a human,
which is his soul ? Hence they live in the hearts of people and you see them referenced to many a times in the form of Shireen Farhad, Laila-Qais and Romeo\'s and Juliets everywhere lamenting on the broken heart and crying out for their beloved<br>..<br>
Secondly on a lighter note On any given time on the planet earth there are more heart broken souls
than those who are succesful( if you call marraige a success) and it is these people who keep the fire of these tragedies alive by pouring in the blood from their hearts.<br>.<br>
Hope I did nor bore you.<br>.<br>
