Melange of emotions !!

Sunshine at Niagara Falls ( 2010 )

 Does any relationship have an expiration date ? Like it happens with so many other perishable things,if one stores love with care to save it for a later time,does it perish or expire,specially if forgetten ? Perhaps,relationships do expire when left unattended.With time,they become enshrouded with mold and start to decay without your knowledge..and suddenly they disappear,leaving us thinking of so many things that could have happened or could have been done with little more attention to details,perhaps !! The expiration of a connection is like the end of an era..although they leave us with a melange of emotions-memories and flashbacks,and lots of dejection....And we always muse if it's truly justified to mourn such an expiration- for such a relationship  perhaps was merely the fruits of one's dream or desire..Things we wanted and how we wanted them to happen..Or maybe there was some history to it but that was all there was to it,and such history had no recent past,present or future-But you held on to them as your own anyways... and mourned them when they eventually happened to vanish...Does just holding on to such history,just by force even if there was not even a silk thread stringing them to the present..and not letting them go,make them rightfully ours ? Loss of something which we had lost a long time ago and whatever has been left of it- having been losing the rest of it  in small doses everyday..doesn't really qualify as a sudden loss or expiration....But still,why do we,humans-crave for something which many a times is not befitting or doesn't rightfully  belong to us ? Why don't we allow the spilled liquid to dry and just accept the stain ??!

  1. Very thoughtful writeup ...... stirs up a lot of questions and emotions. Aptly worded.

  2. I have seen relationships with expiration dates. Whatever is meant to last will. Its pointless lamenting something which never was yours. Its wise to look ahead and know that whatever goes, comes around.

  3. I believe in the saying that we should make our relationships free, if it comes back...its yours and if it doesnot then it was never menat to be yours. beautiful write up. but yes you are true with time we dont give certain relations the time that it requires and that way it goes away from us. with this its better that I go and call some of my friends who has not recd it for ages.

    Very thoughtful post. For the past few days even I was going through the same turmoil. After giving your 100 % to any relationship if the same person doesn't respond u in the same manner then these kind of thoughts are bound to come. And I truly believe that once cracks are visible it's never possible to rekindle the same magic in any relationship.
