On Marriage
Kahlil Gibran "You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore.
You shall be together when the white wings of death scatter your days.
Ay, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God.
But let there be spaces in your togetherness,
And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.
Love one another, but make not a bond of love:
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup.
Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf
Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone,
Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.
Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping.
For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.
And stand together yet not too near together:
For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow."

Well?! i dont if this blog accepts annonymous comments! But this 10th dec has some special reference in my life. Somehow i dont 'accept' just this 1 line frm Khalil GIBRAN "LOVE ONE ANOTHER BUT NOT MAKE NOT BOND OF LOVE" This is aboslute contrast if we read other lines thr! Coz my meagre sense tells frm all these lines that 'bond is everywhere' in those lines apart frm mentioned above.Gibran makes me remember of my recent love......which was.....hmmmmmmmm.....! she knows!!!!
