Over and over again ..I get to hear this phrase 'true love'... so much so that it's become horribly hackneyed. What is this so called "true love" all about ?? I always kept wonderin..Why do most of my friends keep gettin bouts of this fever called "true love" ??
I always thought that the only word in the dictionary which has a profound meanin is "love". The word which is so divine in itself stands for purity and a thoroughly selfless and immaculate feelin we have for others. Then why have we prepended this word called "true" ??? Does it mean that the word "love" all by itself can be nothin more than a pastime ??
It's almost a common phenomenon in every college that a guy is in "true love" with a girl who is pleasin to his eyes. (The vice-versa bein very much possible too) Another concept which has become ubiquitous these days and is very much related to this topic is the concept of "trying". The very word reminds me of those nostalgic school days when I used to visit the exhibition and then "try" flingin the ring onto any of the plethora of things displayed in the stall. This is the only meanin I associate the word "try" with.. But thanks to my engineerin which taught me that the word "try" can have varied meanings.. I've seen most of them "tryin" for people of the opposite gender in the name of "true love". Have we become so vainglorious that we 'try' only to display the mastery we possess over our "flatting" abilities ??('flatting' is a colloquial term used for 'impressing' someone) Have we become so depraved that we've begun to consider human beings as damn " things " who can be won by a mere fling of a ring ??
Oh dear folks !!! Please don't defile the pristine nature of love by "tryin" and then attachin the word "true" only to showcase the amorousness you feel for someone..The magic of love is that it needn't be revealed..One doesn't have to hold a rose , kneel and formally propose to someone. Your true love is something which each of them begins to sense even without any of them revealin it.. :)
Lets retain this magic and divinity of it.. Lets stop flauntin our expertise of injectin novel meanings to words.
