Sometimes I wonder whether it is really necessary to grow up vis-à-vis perpetual relationships?
If one goes by my theory I would say categorically; NO!
Because, if you leave any room for growing up within a bond it will not remain perpetual, will become mortal, and therefore, will die one day. Can we afford to lose any eternal relation in our life. Can a brother lose brotherly affection with age? Can a father be un-fatherly to his kids after a certain time? Can a wife cease to be a wife with the turn of the clock? No!
To me, the moment a relationship gets initiated the age of both the entities should be frozen in respect of each other. That is, they would not grow anymore for each other. Let me explain the situation with graphic example. Cuddling one’s own child is the most heavenly experience on earth. How would it feel if a father who used to pamper his kid day and night cannot do it anymore because the kid has become a man. Unless this is pursued in privacy there is no need to bring age between any inhibited relationship. When a man marries a woman, his experience behind the closed bedroom doors is no less than being in paradise. And if he grows up with time the paradise is lost, which could have always been saved had he not grown up in privacy.
As usual I would like to underline my idea with a beautiful couplet;
“Laazim Hai DIL Ke Paas Rahey Paasban-E-Aql,
Lekin Kabhi Kabhi Isay Tanha Bhi Chor Dey”
It may sound a bizarre idea but in my opinion the root cause of every grief in the world is our pseudo maturity. We are always busy thinking about others’ displeasure at the cost of our pleasure.
How does it affect anybody whether I am imitating a horse or making clown like faces for the sake of my kid so long as the little soul is happy? Then why are we always busy to portrait our hypocrite face before the society by keeping our own happiness at stake?
In a nutshell the point I want to make is that it is true that one cannot make the entire world happy but at least he can keep himself happy. Therefore, I strongly feel that everyone should do every bit to keep himself happy without caring for getting ridiculed, but never at the cost of other's happiness.
This way, if every individual arranges happiness in-house, there will not remain even a single unhappy soul around.
So freeze the age of your relationships now and be happy – always!
