A myth: Existence of One True Love

Since, the start of adulthood, we start to believe the facts with indisputable clarity that there is someone out there waiting for us, we name it true love. Although, we understood love intuitively long before its practical possibility as the sense of togetherness where we can profoundly understand each other and share our happiness and pain without fear of getting judged. We imagine from the start that love is the most beautiful creation of god and we are not wrong. As it put us into an extraordinary situation, in which we try to be a more likeable person and bring better changes in ourselves, even though we hate to do it or admit it. Still, we do these because deep inside the heart we don’t want to grow alone and peculiar. But, as time passes, we came to realize the truth behind all these incessant lies that we build around us of having the one true love among the billions. It’s like the sky full of stars and there is only one star with which you can be happy with. People are not that special. With the prior notion, we just confine ourselves in the closed box to live in the pain and anger for not getting true love, which we think, we belong to. It’s just our thought that builds this imaginative world of true love. In fact, instead of looking outside for our perfect half, we should first look inside and be our perfect half first. As Mahatma Gandhi had said that “Be the change, you want to see in the world.”
