Different people have
different notions of love. Many people mistake love for romance but it is far
away from it. Romance can be a small part of love but can never be called love
itself. The reason being that romance is short lived but love is forever.
When sparks fly between man and a woman; both
the individuals term this phase as love but in reality it is only romance and
only if this romance last the tides of time; it develops into love.
In the real sense, love is responsibility.
When a child is born, the parents pour out
unflinching love for the child; regardless of the fact that the child will give
back the same love when he grows up or not. This is because the parent is
responsible towards the child. Similarly when a man and woman get married, both
the individuals are responsible for each other. This responsibility and
commitment is called love. This feeling of responsibility to someone who we
love, do last long in one’s life whereas romance on the other hand just diminishes
with time. This sentiment of love should not be limited to the near and dear
ones but should cross beyond boundaries
Every individual has to realize that he is
responsible for other fellow human beings. A man’s actions affect the lives of
others, in one way or another. For this world to flourish; it is imperative to
exhibit love not only towards his close companions/relatives but to towards
entire mankind. A person can say that he is in true love only when he is
concerned, committed and responsible towards the betterment of the whole humanity.
And if at all for some; love is romance then lets romance the world.
