Marriage

By Priyadarshini Maji

Why such a sacred thing, treasured and sustained by our ancestors, so much that they cleaved to it then and it’s a tradition now, followed all over the world, has presently become one of the most terrorizing, repulsive thing?

Someone like me, you and every other individual wants a good partner. Wants good characteristics in that ‘One’ person with whom they will be spending their whole life. As I want a good partner, I used to think I need to be that good too.

So I did that, tried and I’m still trying to do that, but it doesn’t happen that way, now does it? No, there is no good. There is neither Happy Ending nor any happily ever after. There is only betrayal, lies, and pain. There is no love, only lust. Love is just another letter for lust. No unconditional love. No sweet kisses. Only dirty lust.

As I am born, I am bound to fall into this cycle but, how will I survive it?

Is there really any other way around this…around everything? Will we have a Happy beginning, that lasts till the last?
