"grass is greener on the other side" so the saying goes...
This holds true in many situations in life.. Especially when, u have just ordered food in a restaurant and the stuff on the neighbouring table looks more appetising :P
My post is dedicated to the current thought in my mind.. marriage v/s being single... Just penning down my musings on this topic...
Being single definitely has more advantages: leisure time for urself..no one to answer to..free bird who can flirt with anyone :P .. No committment hassles... Ekdum tension free life.. However, once u delve deeper in this "status" .. Ur happiness maybe short lived if you are a sentimental-romantic sort of person, then the frustration of ur phone not ringing, no companionship etc, can get to ur head.
Married/committment friends always say that being single was fun etc.. But am sure this doesnt hold good for everyone... At times, u need a companion...someone to come home to...someone to take care of u and vice versa..someone to laugh with, cry with, love etc....
Being married means solid companionship in every aspect of life.. Enjoying the roller coaster of life with someone whom u can turn to everytime..
However, what if the partners turns out to be the anti-thesisnof ur dream spouse?? What if the "spark" in ur wedding goes kapuuuttt!! You are stuck in an endless abyss of monotonousness and boredom!!
Next question which arises in my mind is arranged marriage.. Although i strongly believe in it, i cant shake off the negative feeling of the uncertainity associated with it.. For example: how do u say "yes" to a person after meeeting him for just an hour or so.. What if he doesnt turn out to be compatible wiht u and u have no option of calling it off?? Getting my drift?
Still, hope against hope is prevalent since its my decision and the only option i have..

ReplyDeleteNicely portrayed the thoughts which i believe - at least once in life time - haunts every mind. Both the aspects have their own pros & cons... but as babu ji rightly siad...Ek SE BHALE DO, DO SE BHALE THEEN or may be FOUR... not more than that :P.
