Life has its own way of controlling everything in everyone’s life. Some people accept this knowing the game of destiny and some choose to struggle till they find their own happiness.

The real happiness lies in the command of our hearts, we only survive by following our minds. Heart doesn’t understand right or wrong, it only knows where one can find solace and happiness that one is always looking for.

While growing up, I did try to find happiness for myself and I got success when I first met her, the first woman of my life.

I would describe her as stubborn, ambitious, caring, short-tempered, full of curiosity, who loves to fly higher in her life and achieve big. I must say she's a hard nut to crack from the outside but once you get inside, the tough girl, she’s sober, calm, compassionate, a woman waiting to surrender herself, she’s screaming to be held tightly and to be loved till eternity.

Life is not about love, it’s about how we hold on to the people who loved us unconditionally. We have a habit of testing the other person until they break into pieces and then we expect them to love us back, out of the million pieces of that broken heart.

The second woman of my life is somewhat different from the first. She’s sincere, sweet, calm, timid, and selfish. She puts her convenience and her priorities on top, she loves to be loved but is afraid to commit to you because she has no feelings for you. She's just someone who believes in living at her convenience. Mind it, you’re not a part of her life, you’re just the part of her convenience. She'll always treat you with special words but in reality, she hardly cares about you.

Sometimes people can become a real mystery and you fall in love with them knowing, they cannot be solved, every day they make you fall in love with them more to be slapped on your face with every layer you solve of theirs.

Now the third woman of my life is a combination of the above two. For sure, she's ambitious, stubborn, lazy, selfish and what not. The woman I never wanted to meet in this or any life of mine. We are just two opposites sailing in one boat without any expectations from each other. Well, I have no words to describe her, this woman prefers to live in La La Land where dreams never meet reality.

We’ve been thrown into the open sea of life where we hardly put in efforts to mingle, our boat is sailing in the calm sea and never tested the hull of ours, in the wildest weather of life. Let’s see how it sails through the shores of life where we’ll bid adieu to the life in a hope to not to see each other again in the next one.

Sometimes life sails through the efforts of two and sometimes it must be sailed without putting any effort of two, not because it’s needed but because both the corners of the wheels need to be held lightly to sail the boat in the thunderstorm of life.

The other half-woman of my life is the one who’ve taught me how to fall in love again, how to be loved, how to feel loved when life throws you on the roller coaster ride of destiny. She came to my life like a breeze of an ocean, carrying calmness and compassion, her smile was like a subtle drop of fresh dew. She’s lively, full of life and made me realize what I’ve been missing all these years, hoping to be loved back.

She introduced me to the real me, whom I’d buried deep within. She brought out the best in me and saw the flip side. Only the first and the other half-woman have seen this side of me, which I’m hiding from everyone for years.

The first woman made me realize what’s love, the second one taught me how to stay in love and half-woman taught me how to love myself. Love is not about giving everything to your other half, it’s about how to share the love with the one you care about by not leaving yourself empty in your heart.
