While walking towards home on my way back from work today I saw a man waiting for someone on a two-wheeler. By the time I was crossing him, a girl walked over to him, they hugged each other warmly and the gesture made me smile about how beautiful relationships and friendships are.
After close to 30 mins, when I was standing in my balcony with my evening tea, I saw them very close to my place and arguing loud. While the girl was less aggressive, the guy’s body language was different than what I had seen before. Then the guy zoomed in his vehicle and the girl walked back wiping her tears.
It was not a happy moment and it made me wonder why fight, why hurt each other, and be the reason for tears or anger in the heart. A couple years down the line, this little fight may not matter or they may not even remember this argument but the time spent with each other would always remain the best times of their lives. Live life as if there is no tomorrow and smile all along swallowing the anger and wording your thoughts differently so as to never hurt another soul.
This week I am curating @WeAreWikipedia on twitter. Come show me some WikiLove! 🙂

so true, and while some fights are worth having other times it just feels like people creating drama.

I agree. We can always choose our words to be positive in our conversations with others and use hard words very sparingly. The power lies in our hands. But majority do just the opposite. They would be critical more than being appreciative.

It’s so interesting that you got to witness both ends of the spectrum — the warm hello, the angry goodbye.

Yeah Mel! Sad but I witnessed it! I hope the guy or the girl find this blog and know that we want them to make up! 🙂

Very true. How sad to have seen the same couple in a happy moment and then later with such a different tone, such drastic shifts in the way they treated each other (or he treated her). Love can be volatile, but having experienced the volatile with crazy passion at both ends, I much prefer things a bit more boring, a lot more respectful, and with a sense of appreciating the everyday mundane things along with the beautiful extra special moments. Storming off is very rarely worth it. What a great post for bringing the way we treat each other and choosing to bring smiles, not hurting, to our relationships.

Thank you Jess. Glad you liked the post. What upset me most was the transition to tears within 30 mins..

I have always held that things can be worded and tones modulated to not hurt the other person. It is of course another matter that in spite, some hear what has not even been said, take offence and a fight ensues. Sigh.
