When you meet that special someone for the first time you know deep within your heart that they are perfect for you. This is it. This is what you had been waiting for since quite long to happen.

As it is said, “Someday someone will walk into your life and make you realize why it never worked out with anyone else.”

Suddenly it feels wonderful to be alive, the world becomes a beautiful place and we start wondering what love is. Is it the warm feeling that gushes over when we see that special person? Is it the shivers you get down your spine when you hold hands? Is it the blush that comes on your face when your eyes meet? Or is it something much more than that?

Love is all of this and much more. Love is the greatest gift God gave to mankind. Love is pure happiness. Love is what happens only once, but lasts for a lifetime. It is the most wonderful thing to happen to anyone. Love is what makes the world go round. Love is trusting someone and knowing that it will never be broken. Love is feeling giddy and having faith you will be held securely incase you fall. Love is when you take away the feeling, the passion, the romance and you find out you still care for that person. Love is not confusion. What remains after that confusion subsides is love!! The best form of expressing love is silence – sitting together, holding hands, gazing into each other’s eyes, feeling the magic of love, saying nothing yet feeling you have had the best conversation ever in your lifetime. And this feeling can’t be replaced by the costliest gifts on this earth.

Essay: How to mourn the loss of love?

By

Image Source: Unsplash.com I remember the first time I mourned the loss of love was when I was eleven.  For me, dance was love at that time. I had discovered a strange joy as I glided in and out of those movements. Every time I swirled; I could feel my heart soar. Any beat that strained to reach my ears, tempted me to move my body to its tune. I just knew I was born to dance and that is the only thing I wanted to do, all my life.  I had my reasons to believe so and a very simple one at that. It made me happy. That was a reason enough. However, my father thought otherwise. Girls from good families, do not dance. That line was enough to break all those rosy dreams of dancing on a stage. The day my brother was sent to the same dance class which was not good for me, was the day I experienced heartbreak for the first time.  That is the day I mourned the loss of my first love- Dance.

Diary of a Lost Wanderer - Lost & Found

Dear Diary, I fell in love with Mumbai when I first visited it in 1995. Bombay, as it was then known, fascinated me since then.  If you ask me what made me fall in love with this city, I perhaps cannot explain. It wasn't that I was seeing the sea for the first time. It wasn't even the biggest city I had been to till then. Still, there was something so magical about this place. The trip was a short one lasting less than a week but this city now had my heart. Years later, I arrived here all alone on my first solo trip in 2005 and fell in love all over again. I got my first job and was required to come to Mumbai frequently. The local trains, the chaos on the roads, the crowds, the humdrum, the salty smell in the air, the stale air- everything about this city was intoxicating for me.

Metro Diaries: The Art of Making Love

Lying aimlessly, just feeling each other in silence. I managed to just whimper to denote my curiosity.   “Because that is the moment we create love. We are the closest we could ever be to love, in its purest form. It is sheer magic as we are naked, in every form. Mentally, physically and emotionally before that one person, we love. We know they can hurt us, as much as they want to, in the way they want to. But love gives us that power to trust them, that they won’t.”   “And here I was thinking it is a need. Something you want at that moment and you get it!”
