Love, Infatuation or a Trap…Think?

He smiled at her whenever their eyes met. There were some tender messages sent through those sparkling glances. Would that be love? Who would not fall into this trap of infatuation, so did she? Little did she feel that those exchanges filled love in the air? Surprisingly, they never met. But one call made a difference and they fell apart.

It has been three decades that she is happily married to her beloved now. No! Not ‘he’. That chapter was closed long ago. She met the real love whom she would die for. Strange, isn’t it? That’s what life is. A great juggler!

We never understand how you sail through life. Her example definitely teaches that merely attraction to the opposite gender is not love indeed. Someone’s simplicity is so enchanting that you get your head over heels. Look before you leap…my young friends. Your age is on a slippery ground that may not allow you to take the right decisions. Hence ‘Beware’. This teenage is malicious. It takes you to a dreamland with rosy path. Don’t forget the thorns it carries. It’s hidden but when it pricks, it leaves you appalled.

What do we do? You may ask. The answer is simple. Share your feelings with your parents. Stirring in your life is normal, but hiding it may lead you into trouble. Pour it out. Why worsen the situation unnecessarily.

No doubt there are people whose love life has been successful since their teenage. Why forget the other side of the coin? There are evidences of heartbreaks too. Don’t allow this breaking of heart become a hurdle in your life. Life is precious. I sympathize with those who give it up for such petty reasons. However, my young friends need to learn to differentiate between infatuation and true love.

Do not allow yourself to fall prey to temptations. Get up and weigh your emotional assets and liabilities. Your responsibility towards your family is much more important than giving in to unrewarding acts of love. Forget those heartbreaks, pat your conscience and fly away to a world where you know you are loved cared and above all you ‘LIVE’.
