Love for me....

hmmm......Love for me is when beloved husband sacrifices his mid night cup of tea because he forgot to buy milk.

Yes...that's what the beloved husband did.

We get two liters of milk on Monday and two on Friday...occasionally having to buy additional one liter midweek.

But this has become the beloved husband's job since I surrendered our milk man last November as I suspected he used to add water in milk in his way from shop to our house.

Only this Friday....he forgot.

When I went to get the milk out of the fridge in order to make my porridge this Saturday evening...hmm....I had no choice but to leave the smallest amount.

...Meaning not enough for two cups of tea.

Where we live it isn't a case of walking to the corner shop.

Most nights at around 11.30 after sometime dinner...he makes us tea occasionally gracing me with a plate of biscuits.

But...this Saturday...it meant only one cup.

And he...being the perfect gentleman...insisted that the one cup should be mine.

I didn't marry him for his money....nor did I marry him for his physical appearence...hmmm...or may be I did...okay okay...I suppose not to mention this aloud...

hmm...but I did marry him for love....and of course his night time tea.

What is love for you?

    The meaning of love is found in the word "unconditional"....
    Loving someone through their flaws and all. Accepting and embracing each others differences and compromising with their offerings. Love is only CARING AND TRUSTING the one you love.

    Love can be anything, a thought, a gesture, an admiration or remembering to confer a best blogger award. Marrying for a cup of tea besides love is a bonus.

    aik interesting magar mushkil sawal..what is love for u?

    mai pichle aik ghantay se soch rahi hon..jo baki sab ne likha,,qurbani,aisaar, endurance.. unconditional love...

    magar kya hai yeh? koi aik insaan,koi aik chehra? ya bohot se log?rishtay?dost?
    its a way of living actually.. aik tarz e zindagi.. which not everyone adopts.. aur jo adopt kar leitay hain unhein dawaam hasil ho jata hai.. zameen se phoot'tay sabzay,behtay daryaoun ki tarah aik tasalsul hasil ho jata hai..

    Hi,

    Before loving someone else one should love oneself with loyalty and sincerity otherwise love for others has just a mirage a spider use to attrack bees into her web.

    I hope you have loved yourself first before asking for love from others, if you have then congratualtions. But oone can see the contradict situation by reading your posts that you dont have a single wingle desire of love for yourself otherwise life would have been easy for you.

    Love for me is loving myself. Think about it...thinking...hhmmm....
