People In Love Vs Society

By Dinny

Once, there were two people deeply in love. They were sitting together in a quiet garden, talking softly. The boy leaned over and gently kissed the girl on her forehead. They exchanged smiles and heartfelt words. The boy handed her a bouquet of beautiful roses, and they continued their honest, heart-to-heart conversation — two souls simply enjoying each other’s presence.

Suddenly, a group of men appeared, carrying sticks. They stormed toward the couple and shouted,

“What’s happening here? What do you think you’re doing? You seem too young for this! Do your parents know where you are? Do they know what you’re doing?”

The boy, calm and innocent, looked up and replied,

“Tell me something — what do you think is happening here? Do your parents know where you are? Do they know you’re walking around with sticks in your hands, trying to harm people? Do your children know about this violent behavior of yours?”

The man leading the group grew furious.

“How dare you talk to me like that? You’re so shameless and disrespectful! Don’t act smart with me!”

The boy smiled slightly and said,

“Interesting. When you asked me these same questions, it wasn’t considered disrespectful. But when I ask you the exact same questions, suddenly it’s shameful and insulting? How is that possible? The question hasn’t changed — only the person asking it has.”

He continued,

“And as for your question — my answer is simple. I don’t have parents. I lost them both, and so did she. We’re both orphans, and we’re in love. We don’t have enough money for college, but we work hard and run our own small shop to earn a living. We’re not married yet, but our love is pure.”

The angry man tightened his grip on the stick and barked,

“This is not allowed! Public display of affection is obscene!”

The boy calmly responded,

“So tell me — is violence allowed in public? Is it acceptable to form a group and attack people just because they don’t fit into your idea of morality? Is that legal?”

The man’s rage only grew.

“You’re trying to act too smart! I’ll kill you!”

The boy looked him in the eye and said,

“Is killing allowed in public too? Especially just because you think I’m being disrespectful? We are two consenting adults who love each other — that is our freedom. Whatever we do, we do with respect and consent. But you just said you’ll kill me — without my consent. Shouldn’t you at least ask if I agree to die?”

The group murmured among themselves. Some men held back the leader before things got worse.

The boy and the girl quietly stood up, held hands, and walked away.

Moral of the Story

Society often stands against love for no real reason — yet it seems perfectly fine with violence against people who love each other.

Society teaches you to become an ego-driven critic who despises love but tolerates hate.

We are taught to “respect elders,” but just because someone has lived longer doesn’t mean they are wiser. There are foolish and cruel people of all ages — should we respect them simply because they are older? Respect should be earned through wisdom and kindness, not age.

Love will always be greater than violence.

If everyone lived by one simple rule — “Live, and let others live” — the world would be a much kinder place.
