DO LOVE REALLY LIBERATES?

Hello friends... Was reading a book named "The Fifth Mountain". Almost completed it, quite a captivating book. But suddenly a sentence in it caught my attention:

"She was free, for Love Liberates"

And this made me to ponder, 'do love really liberates?'. Had gone through different stages in life and experienced a lot, I still feel difficult to comment on this thought. I had always seen love enslaving people rather than liberating. The moment a person become a parent, his love for his child starts enslaving him, giving himself to the demands of his loving child.
The love for his family enslaves a good child to follow the path chosen by them for him and if his free will forces him to break away from his loving family bond, he is no more a loving child of his parents.( and this implies to many things in his life, like the decision for his friends, career, love and even marriage)
A loving wife is always enslaved to the commitments towards her husband, compromising for him at each and every point of her life to make her family a "happy family" otherwise she is not at all a loving and caring wife.
A loving boy friend at the same time is also enslaved by her girlfriend, I know many boys would agree to that at once :-) and if a boy has a loving girlfriend, she is also enslaved to his commands of doing this and not dong that.( and I am again sure that many girls who have gone through a possessive relationship with their guys know it better.)
Then how is all this "LIBERATING".
Or we can say that all this is just mere a perception about LOVE, Which is unknown to us yet. And those who have TRANSCEND the boundaries of this "Perceptive Love" and entered the horizons of "True Love" are actually LIBERATED???
God only knows that or the ones who have actually witnessed this "LL" (LIBERATED LOVE) phenomenon.
Are there any real people who witnessed "LL"? At-least I have not and not even met any of those. But as you know I am a believer, so I am sure to meet such people in future and would like to hear their stories and comments on my blog.:-_

What actually I have observed and realized after so many years about love is that the existence of True Love can be found in Nature and Nature only......the reason is simple.....that there is a Perfect Harmony among nature and its components......moreover this harmony exist at Highest level...where there is no revenge, no love, no hatred, no fear and no jealousy.......all that is there is simple existence which is devoid of any other thing.....you can find this type of love in your pets like Dog......who will ask from you food irrespective of any fear or anything because he is hungry at that time and he wants food, simple reason...... he is not ashamed of himself while he is asking for food..........he simply asks........also he would love you unconditionally whether you are rich or poor.....whether you are attractive or not.......whether you are old or young..........and he would express himself in his own way........on the other hand............Human beings are subjected to too many things at a time.......they are actually born in a setup or a pre programmed plan of life....where they have to behave like others......they copy others........they actually dont know who they are.......their existences are time and again changed by their circumstances......so they forgot themselves.........they forgot how to live in their own purest form........and here the problems starts...........now the sole objective of man become to survive and to do anything for their survival......here the question of love, values and any other thing does not arise.........people would kill each other for their survival.............the harmony is lost and a persistent anxiety takes over everything............and this stage calls for brutality and cruelty.....that is the survival at any cost..........here the man become machine and he would not hear to anything..........moreover people are not so strong at their core level that they could resist wrongs done to them.......they would silently accept what is being done to them and now they become slave to their circumstances...........because their nature has become to accept and accept everything whether right or wrong.......so they lost their true existence and start behaving like demons and devils.......such how people fight with each other...they kill each other...they hate each other....and it is obvious that in such situation there is no place for love in their life................

So what you think?

I am not what you think I am, I am neither black nor white, I am neither fat nor thin, I am neither a “form” that can be defined, Nor an “item” that can be possessed. You can either say good of me or say bad, Your words can neither change me nor yourself. You like to judge me & love the harm they do. Yet your words can never stop me to get it through. I am a fragment let loose by the universe, A fragment that embodies a human form, A form that can get me back to my reality, A reality that you are also a part. And as parts of the same thing can never be alike, This alikeness is what makes me “ME” & so do “YOU” So, I am not what you think I am…

AN OUTBURST...

I am sure most of you have celebrated a lot of Birthday parties in their childhood. And you remember the time when we used to decorate our rooms with balloons for such parties. In my case, I had a small gang of kids for doing this task of inflating balloons and we used to compete as whose balloon would be larger, and in doing so I always used to fill the balloon with more and more air, using all my efforts. Actually as kids we give our soul into the things we enjoy , & it was similar, no matter how hard it was to blow a big balloon, I tried it with all my heart. And sometimes during this process the balloon got filled beyond its threshold limit and burst out making a large bang and all the kids present used to laugh on it. And we all used to enjoy even bursting the balloons this way. And there were some balloons that never gets inflated, it was so irritating to blow up such balloons, no matter how hard I tried they remain in their original shape & form. And there were some

Searching for love with endless tricks.

This is one of my old poem, would like to share it with all of you, hope you find it interesting: I had heard all types of Fairy tales, Full of fun, magic and painful wails. With Love always concurring all hate, Blessing the beast or toad with a princely fate. I had seen all types of romantic flicks, Full of music, dreams and starry cliques. With good conquering the evil later, Proclaiming the lovers to be living happily ever after. But I had also seen the real life, Full of obligations, decrees and relations involved in strife. With hope always trying to subdue despair, People living amid life’s smile and tear. Each of us living a fairy tale of our own, Straddling between the spell of goodness and evil unknown. We live our life like romantic flicks, Searching for love with endless tricks. ;-)
