The coverage surrounding Ambani wedding has brought to the fore that moment on stage when Radhika Merchant speaks about Anant Ambani. She talks about finding somebody who promises to care about everything. Good, bad, beautiful and mundane. Going further she talks about the promise that your life will not go unnoticed and unwitnessed.
Does your presence matters to someone!
What Radhika described is the simplest yet purest form of love.
Does your partner check on you from time to time without intruding your personal space. Does he or she make effort to satisfy your emotional needs. Does he find an excuse to just hear your voice.
All these gestures mean that he not only adores you but is interested in you. Partners sometime reach that level when they are thinking about each other even during the most busiest times,
Endless conversations v/s what do I have to do to get a response
You could give it a name, the “Aur Batao” type of conversation. The advise to anyone seeking a relationship out there is if conversations are moving towards Aur Batao, it is not headed in the right direction.
The other type of conversation is one which begins but does not seem to end. A talk might be of a finite duration, but the continuity goes on. A conversation which takes you to that peaceful place after a hard day. Not just promises but actually getting you there.
The other extreme form of this is when you partner goes absolutely silent and you keep wondering what do I do to get a response. This usually happens when the initial rush and excitement is over with one person. And the other starts wondering, now what should I do to elicit a response.
The value of time
When someone falls in love, it is not just a matter of heart but time too. If your partner is taking out time to remember you, it is the time taken out from his or her schedule. An appropriate response is the right thing to do. But it has to come from within.
There are so many instances when we remember a person after that person has left us. Then it is too late. So the moment is always in the now. The true test of a relationship is appreciation of the value of time.
Ancient texts of Shiva and Parvati
Most of the instances and examples are in several of our puranas. They provide and example for people looking for knowledge and wisdom. One such example apt to our situation is that most of the time Lord Shiva was out sorting out problems of the world as part of his responsibilities. But when Parvati used to require his presence, she used to untie her hair and he used to instantly come home. After Sita was send on a second exile, Ram never remarried. During all important religious festivals, he used to keep a golden statue of Sita next to his seat.
When a man loves a woman, she becomes a part of him.
