Do you need a life partner or just a spouse?

It's a critical question for individuals living in a modern world! The concept of life partner was different or didn't exist in ancient and/or medieval ages. It emerges with time, but fundamentals remain the same. There was a time when marriages took place even forcefully just to fulfill the physical needs of a person. There are millions of untold stories of suffering which went unrecorded.

However, modern life is different. We need to exercise our rights within a framework of binding laws that gives other partner certain protection. We don't have much leisure time to spend for enjoyment. We are so much busy in meeting the demands in the form of job requirements, establishing ourselves, or struggling to meet the demands of our daily life. It's not easy for an individual to fulfill everything in a very short span of time. Many of us are also busy in maintaining a social status and are in a race to establish the superiority. All the above are justified, nothing wrong in doing so.

All of us have passed through it, and we all are actually badly exhausted! The race started for everyone the day we born - in the beginning it was started by social announcement by our parents in a lavish way about the arrival of a new life, during schooling it was for obtaining good marks. Under such a scenario- the competition has become tougher. In the age of social media, many of us are under illusion in getting recognition for everything we do. Is not it?

Then what is the role of a life partner? The role has changed from just fulfilling the physical needs to mental support. When we return home from office - taking dinner together is not just a customary ritual. It also improves your mental health by healing your wound that you encounter in various ways in public life. A word of encouragement helps to build your inner strength. A partner should listen to other partner attentively and shouldn't insult the other partner for every small issue. If it doesn't happen, it is a time to decide the future of a relationship. A marriage is bound to fail if the partner doesn't listen and respect the other partner. Sometimes compatibility becomes a major contention in a relationship. We often misunderstand the marriage is part of our sexual requirements but fail to realize the deeper needs. It is important to discuss openly the sexual needs, family needs and then plan accordingly in a free and fair way to understand the feelings of each other. Any miscommunication can spell a disaster. Although we are living in a densely populated world, but actually we are very lonely in our own world. No one has enough time to understand you, or no one bothers it due to various reasons. One can check it just by taking a complete day off from the social media. Gone are the days when true friends exist - time has changed and no one can support our cause. Ultimately, it's your life partner who should understand and support you both morally and legally. Life has become exceedingly complex, but a true-life partner can make it simple. That's where we fail to understand the meaning of a life partner and consider the marriage as a piece of legal document. If it happens, marriage is destined to fail. There can't be any if and buts in a relationship, but it can't be one sided affair to reach the borderline. Please remember an egoistic effort doesn't work for a relationship, it can be your forte in the professional life. So, if you want to live a successful life, become a true-life partner before it's too late, not simply a customary spouse! Of course, both partners should take extra care and must put equal effort. Then life becomes enjoyable to both the partners and the world becomes nothing but a heaven!! 

Why have I discussed the above points? It's actually the story of my next fiction. Till I publish the book, spend some time to relate your own life story.

Are countries not facing a dilemma?

In the epic Mahabharata, Karna, a warrior of immense power and generosity, became a symbol of loyalty, but also of the tragic consequences of siding with unrighteousness. He possessed extraordinary fighting skills and was known for his unwavering commitment to Duryodhana, even when aware of Duryodhana's morally questionable actions. Despite his many noble qualities, including generosity to the point of self-sacrifice, Karna's allegiance to the side of adharma ultimately led to his downfall at the hands of Arjuna. His silence in the face of injustice, particularly during the disrobing of Draupadi, is considered a significant flaw in his character, highlighting the potential for even virtuous individuals to be swayed by attachments and circumstances, ultimately impacting their legacy. The current global geopolitical landscape presents a similar dilemma: nations often find themselves caught between conflicting loyalties and interests, making it challenging to openly and unequivo...

Is the world undergoing another transition?

The world last experienced the significant shift from the medieval era to the modern age between 1500 and 1800. This transition ushered in an era of hope and opportunity, breaking the chains of oppression and fostering creativity in all facets of human life. Although there is no specific date marking the start or end of this period, it saw the decline of feudalism and the rise of new socio-economic structures in Europe, even as religious institutions gained influence. This era was marked by globalization, as trade routes expanded to previously uncharted territories. It transformed daily life with groundbreaking discoveries in both the arts and sciences. While Asia may have seen its zenith of achievements earlier, this period also became a significant chapter in its history. Several saints emerged during this time, initiating substantial social reforms. Notably, their teachings resonated universally, contributing to the unification of a deeply fragmented society. The transition was not ...
