Happy Love ❤️. ....

Happy Love ❤️ = just not love....its HAPPY love. You are ready to face any thing in this world, if this one relationship is going well.

It is said that all of us are on a look out for that one PERFECT relationship. A Man on look out for that one 'Happy Woman' in his life and a Woman on look out for that 'one Man with whom she feels secured and protected'. - that one relationship can be anyone - mom,dad, daughter, son, wife, husband, inlaws, grandparents.

A lovely, couples story excerpts from Mahatria reading -

Lets call it as Rama/Sita's story and here how it goes:

Rama was from a not so well to do family, he grew up having just one shirt which he used to wash it every night and wear it in the morning. His dad and brother did the same. As they grew up, they just knew how to live with less. For Diwali, Rama's dad would ask him how much money he wants and Rama would ask for Rs.100 but would get only Rs50. This is the kind of love Rama grew up on, independent thinking, do your own stuff, less is more... etc.

Sita was from a well to do family. She grew up in a family where mom, dad and she would coordinate what to wear for a wedding - to either contrast or to match the life styles. Sita's dad made sure he was there for Sita in smallest of smallest decisions. For Diwali, her dad used to take her for shopping and get her what she wanted. This is the kind of love Sita grew up on, dependent, caring for small things, togetherness, consensus, etc.

Now Rama and Sita get married. The second day of their marriage Sita asks Rama to take her to her parents house. Rama agrees and asks her to get ready. She displays 3 set of clothes and is waiting for Rama to come inside the bedroom to help her select one. But Rama without knowing the expectations, just walks into the bed room changes his clothes and walks out. Sita is annoyed, chooses one dress to wear, gets dressed and leaves. Its Diwali time again, first Diwali after marriage for them, Rama comes home after work with some shopping bags. Sita excited to see this, asks him what was it. Rama says its his Diwali shopping. There goes her mood again, Rama unknowing of her expectations, thinks of it and he asks her how much money she needs for shopping. Well, Sita was never asked like this, her dad used to accompany for her shopping and she never worried about the cost. She slams the door and Rama is waiting outside requesting her to allow him inside, begging, apologizing etc. There were many such small instances that disturbed Rama and Sita's married life. small fights, small misunderstanding leading to bigger issues, there was purely compatibility issue, leading to divorce discussions later in the first year. But, they survived 23yrs of married life... amazing isn't it?.. 

The secret shared was that, they understood the different backgrounds they (Rama and Sita) came from, i.e., their understanding of love was different from each of their perspective and the expectations were different. 

Also, Rama started loving Sita as he would love his daughter (its unconditional and you wouldn't get upset with you daughter for such small things) and Sita started loving Rama as she would love her son (she wouldn't hate her son or want to get separated if he did something silly). 

Finding that balanced compatibility in a relationship is so key and this is what Rama /Sita did which lead to finding their Happy Love ❤️ .......
