…and the two become one!

If as they say “In love two become one…then the result is ‘two half people’!”

……………..

Many people use love as a pain-relieving spray…as a means to fill a void inside them – a void caused by something at a far deeper level… It is like a temporary solution to a persisting problem!

Day in day out they play the same game – again and again! They know that their aloneness would trigger a soul-searching and their shallowness and hollowness would stare them in their face…So they would hook-up, text, chat, call, talk, wait, fret, meet or in short ‘do anything that can keep them off their self’!

For them, belonging to someone is a way to becoming something! They use emotional and physical intimacy as a tool to establish their identity. It is like holding on to a pole because you can’t stand on your own, and that’s why then any unresponsiveness from the partner reduces their self-esteem and a break-up hurts their self-worth…beyond repair!

As a result, what was meant to be a natural sharing between two hearts brimming with their completeness becomes an arrangement by two confused minds to help hide each other’s incompleteness.

……………..

Well! Love is not meant for halves! It is meant for two…who are too full to ‘not share’.
