So what if you're unlike me..
A Crow preyed on the only egg layed by the pigeon in my empty flower pot! It stealthily took it away... all took place in the blink of an eyelid. I was damn angry at the crow. Felt like strangling it. I was mad at the pigeon for laying an egg in a flower pot !!
Later I realized I like crows, independent of the fact that they target the weaker ones. I like pigeons too-no one so innocent and sweet.. and oh so unclean, like them ;)
Just because someone you love does things against your wishes or is unlike you, doesnt mean you stop loving them :) There.... another chapter learnt.
Just remembered a quote I'd read somewhere .. At first, when we truly love someone, our greatest fear is that the loved one will stop loving us. What we should fear and dread instead is that we won't stop loving them, even after they are dead and gone.
I thought I had a deal with the pigeons to deliver their eggs in my flower pots, now I know why I don't see them :D
ReplyDeleteYup that's true, its hard to be angry with someone you love for a long time.
The quote adds a nice touch to the end..
Survivor!! what a name change and thanks for a quick reply...
ReplyDeleteLOL.. yes, Flower pots are nothing.. they've entered my room and once layed eggs on my teddy bear! You wudnt even want to imagine what I'd gone through then!
Yup.. all the same, I still love them no matter even if the next time they lay eggs on this laptop. :P
Take care.. ciya
well written girl....

found it very apt to this post
@ Avi..
ReplyDeleteThanks buddy :)
Somethings are learned quite late in life (atleast for me) :D , but then better late than never!
Yep,'Hate the Sin, not the Sinner'.. as in 'Love the deed no the do-er' ;)
PS: That doesn't mean aav tuka hate karna.. tugale kitari 'hate the sin and the sinner' !! :D
Hey! nice quote in the end! I actually pondered about it for quite some time...and really true!
