Let me Love You My Sweetheart


Can love wait? Sometimes, material comforts is not what love really needs. Love needs time and effort and that is exactly what the guy in the story lacks...



Once upon a time, there was once a guy who was very much in love with this girl. This romantic guy folded 1,000 pieces of papercranes as a gift to his girl. Although, at that time he was just a small executive in his company, his future doesn't seemed too bright, they were very happy together. Until one day, his girl told him she was going to Paris and will never come back. She also told him that she cannot visualise any future for the both of them, so let's go their own ways there and then... heartbroken, the guy agreed.
When he regained his confidence, he worked hard day and night, slogging his body and mind just to make something out of himself. Finally with all these hard work and with the help of friends, this guy had set up his own company...
"You never fail until you stop trying." he always told himself. "I must make it in life!"
One rainy day, while this guy was driving, he saw an elderly couple sharing an umbrella in the rain walking to some destination. Even with the umbrella, they were still drenched. It didn't take him long to realise those were his ex-girlfriend's parents. With a heart in getting back at them, he drove slowly beside the couple, wanting them to spot him in his luxury sedan. He wanted them to know that he wasn't the same anymore, he had his own company, car, condo, etc. He had made it in life!
Before the guy can realise, the couple was walking towards a cemetery,and he got out of his car and followed them...and he saw his ex-girlfriend, a photograph of her smiling sweetly as ever at him from her tombstone... and he saw his precious papercranes in a bottle placed beside her tomb. Her parents saw him. He walked over and asked them why this had happened. They explained, she did not leave for France at all. She was stricken ill with cancer. In her heart, she had believed that he will make it someday, but she did not want her illness to be his obstacle ... therefore she had chosen to leave him.
She had wanted her parents to put his papercranes beside her, because, if the day comes when fate brings him to her again he can take some of those back with him. The guy just wept ...the worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them but knowing you can't have them and will never see them again.
The End."



A tragic story that perhaps happens only in the movies.But this story also leaves a deep impact on our love n life. At the end of the day, money is money but love is divine. In our quest for our material wealth, take time to make time for our loved ones. There will be a time when we have only memories to cling to.
Take this weekend to show our "love" to all that are close to us.

Positive vs Negative response

 7th March 2024 A thought just hit my mind today. Like I am suffering a lot of challenges and obstacles in getting married to my long time girlfriend. She has been with me in all the ups and downs since a decade now. However, just because we belong to an orthodox Indian society divided on caste, color, culture, region, religion, and multiple other differences, one has to suffer a lot on multiple stages in many aspects while taking important decisions in life. My girlfriend belongs to a different caste, and is from another state and will surely bring an entirely different set of culture and mindset with her when she will be marrying me. Parents mainly remain scared due to cultural differences, perspective issues, and the part where there are high chances of huge toxicities and arguments which can adversely affect the harmony of the families.  In India, the marriage is never between the two individuals. Parents from both sides are involved, then the relatives comes in the picture and so

Mental Health: A Basic Overview

Ever lived in a state of depression, anxiety, sleep-deprived mode, and panic attacks? Ever tried searching for symptoms of these disorders on the internet? What are these? What do they do to a human brain or body? Are they external or internal? How can they be controlled or prevented? Just like a liver fails, a kidney fails, a heart fails, similarly a mind fails as well. You eat junk, you impact your gut health; you drink junk, you impact your kidney and liver; you smoke junk, you impact your lungs and heart. Similarly, as you go on feeding your mind with junk thoughts, it also gets impacted in a similar way. So what actually is mental health?  How can you control it and connect your thoughts and emotions and achieve a mental balance? Good mental health does not mean that one doesn't have mental illness. It is about having a sense of purpose in life getting involved with creative things coping with stress and setbacks in life forming meaningful and close relationships being in tou

A weird paradox

25-35 is the age that if you are in struggling to development phase during this age then you find it very difficult to share it seeking solutions from others.  For example, currently I am facing huge struggles, obstacles and complication in my PhD due to lack of proper amenities, toxic research culture, politics on may levels and layers, egos and corruptions involved, untimely delays, resource allocations, and then in the end complex, unpredictable, and weird support and supervision as well.  There's too much stress at the work place. Add to that, I am literally suffering from too many prolonged injuries since past four years, now the pain is becoming severe day by day, and I have developed new issues as well. I suffer from herniated spinal slip disc issue, which is severely affecting my neck, spine, lower back, and my kneee. Then I have achilles tendons, and heel pain issues from past three years due to past many basketball and football injuries. I had minor accident accident also
