The Feeling of Being Loved


What do humans need?!
Well, if I ask this question to you, what would your answer be??


Probably the answer could be that humans need-


  • Money
  • A good job
  • Settled life
  • Life partner 
  • Kids 
  • Luxury trips or 
  • May be a relaxing weekend.


The list could go on and on and on, am I right? It's very popularly known, there's end to a man's need but there ain't an end to his greed.

A person's list would have that one thing on the top which he needs the most at the moment.
If someone asked me this same question, being a student my answer would be I need an admission to a good college. If someone gives me an admission  to the best college possible, yet after sometime I will start feeling something missing in my life. something else will pop-up in the need list.

When I asked "What do human need?", I wanted some genuine replies rather than something that satisfies the senses. No matter how much you achieve in life; name, fame, wealth, power;
there will still be something leaving you wanting for more. 

AND.. that element is- 
              "THE FEELING OF BEING LOVED"

YES, the feeling of being loved;
no matter how clumsy you might be,
despite of all the darkness in your life,
above all the wrong deeds that you might have done,, is the most satisfying feeling.

Ohh yes, when I say love, you might have had the picture of the love of your life in your mind. Our generation has a very limited definition of love. There are numerous people in your life who love you, but their love is not significant enough for you. The love you get from them is what keeps you going.
Think about the innumerable things your mother does no matter how much you trouble her,
That priceless advice from your father,
The annoying yet very comforting care from your brother,
The love you get from your sister.

Showcasing love doesn't always mean saying I love you.
Sometimes it comes in different forms like-
  • I'll buy some food for you
  • Please drive safe
  • Give me a call when you reach home
  • You must be tired, I'll make you a coffee and so on.
Adding to this the love of your life is like the cherry to the cake.


Now suppose if you're given a Great Job, a Big House, an Expensive Car and everything that you could have thought about in your wildest dreams. But the deal says you could have all this only if you give up on being in contact with the people in your life. Well, it seems very tempting initially.

May be one would say it's easy, it's fun to lead a life on your own. But,. this might go on for a couple of days, may be months and if you're strong enough then may be for an year. Eventually the things which seemed to be glamorous, would suddenly begin to loose it's charm. Those very things will start exhausting you and choke your soul.

So, coming back to the point, why did this happen even when you were bestowed with anything and everything you once wished for.
WHY??

The answer is,
Because those inanimate things CAN'T HUG YOU.
They CAN'T WIPE YOUR TEARS.
OR HEAR YOUR STORY AFTER A BAD DAY.
THEY WON'T TALK YOU TO SLEEP.
THEY WONT CALM YOUR SOUL.

After loosing your dream job, or breaking up with your love, or loosing a family member, one can still recover with the love and care from others. No matter how bad of a day you might have had, but if you have someone by your side, you could still fall asleep keeping aside all your worries.

Basically, despite of being with you, they won't be with you.

So, in the end, it all comes to love..

LOVE and THE FEELING OF BEING LOVED

The feeling of being loved is the most crucial thing that one needs.
