Nani was never fond of dressing up, but she looked gracefully beautiful in whatever she wore. Be it her traditional Sarees, ghararas or a simple shalwar kameez..... she was a wonder to my eyes whenever I saw her. Nana with his crisp Sherwani and Nehru cap, always looked like a real gentleman....I wish all the generations that follow share the same grace :)
What is it about the people we love that appeals to us the most? Well of coarse the important bit is, that they are a special part of our life and make us feel special too....is it just the warmth in their being, or a tide of love that comes our way whenever we are close to them....it could also be that God has created some special chord that connects our heart and gets all the love flowing like a perennial river :)
Yesterday, my mother was looking at nani's clothes and narrated the stories behind them, each connected to a special occasion or some just saved for the best...one of the silk sarees seemed to be a historical evidence of the amazing craftsmanship of India...
Relationships run deep and get entangled in everything close to the people we love......love sure is deep...very deep....
Those days they bought for occassions and so a story with each wear. Nowadays we buy often and nothing interests after a while.
ReplyDeletethe stories connected to each and every item of the person we love has a very special story in them...that we carry in the depth of our hearts....love indeed is really really deep
ReplyDeletewell What is it about the people we love that appeals to us the most ? Hmmm its the look they have on there face when they look at you.. IT says WE ARe there for you ALWAYS right or wrong..
ReplyDeleteWe will side you
we will stand by you...
THe look of warmth and the smile they have when we do something gooood...
and the love they have for us ...
We love people for what they are. And naturally, everything about them appeals to us. :)
ReplyDeleteI have always loved people that are close to me for what they are and the love they gave me in many ways. Their love thought me that it is okay to love and share my feelings without any reprimand. This is a great post, once again it makes us think. Thank you for coming by.
ReplyDeleteYes, love is deep, deeper than the soul..:)
ReplyDeleteGod is actually GREAT.

Nuts
It makes no difference how deeply seated the trouble may be,
ReplyDeletehow hopeless the outlook
how muddled the tangle
how great the mistake;
A sufficient realization of Love will dissolve it all!
All valuable things which money cannot buy tend to have a story attached to them. We surely love our family members for not because we like them but also for who they really are. A sufficient realization of Love will dissolve the anger, hatred involved in a flash!!
ReplyDeleteSome relationships are meant for 'ever'. And everything about them (the people we love) means much more than what mere eyes can see.
ReplyDeleteVery True KK, I totally agree on that one :)
ReplyDeleteYes Lakshmi, very deep indeed :)
