Radha Krishna is my favorite love story because it has all the emotions - friendship, intimacy, jealousy, sacrifice and pain. Radha's love for Krishna teaches us that love is not about keeping that person close but its about seeing them happy even if it means letting them go."Ishq di mere mitra pehchan ki, jddo mukk jaawe zidd apnaun di" [can you guess the movie?]I also believe that love never ceases to exist but it changes form. If you ever loved someone truly that feeling will never end - it can stay the same where you miss that person even after years of separation, it might change into friendship where you wish them well for life or it might change into hatred which is also a form of love. If you never think of them and their presence or absence does not affect at all then you never really loved them.
I read these lines sometime back and loved it:
But when Krishna came face to face with Radha no words were said. No hands stretched to meet each other, no smile played upon lips and no eyes sparkled with delight. Only a million thoughts flashed through each mind and a deluge of tears flowed from each pair of eyes. Radha had promised not to get involved with Krishna's later life and she intended to keep that promise. Krishna did not want to say or do something that would make things difficult for Radha. They stood staring stonily at each other till all the thoughts were exhausted and the eyes were dry. Though Krishna and Radha had been physically separated, they had been inseparable spiritually and would continue to be so till the end of the world. Radha had seen the splendor in which Krishna's wives lived and the joy he lavished on them. But she knew that his tears were for her alone and that each drop was more valuable than all the riches of the world. Krishna knew that Vrindavan would be enshrined forever because of Radha's sacrifice. Both were assured that they had taken the correct decision many years ago. Without saying anything they said everything and went their separate ways. They never saw each other again.
