There have been love stories, stories about love, stories that end with love, that try to emulate love, and yes, stories that claim to know of love. And then, there is LTL.

So, there was this girl who had stopped believing in life. She'd simply lost faith in it coz she felt it hadn't been fair to her. She had once been a believer. She believed in things others couldn't see. She felt it deeper than most. And so, when life snuck up on her and pulled the satin carpet from under her feet, she fell. With no desire to rise again.

So one day, she saw, this adamant prince, who kept fighting happiness. And love. And she screamed, He's such a fool. So like me. And then she realised, he was like her, except for the fact that with every blow life dealt him, his heart had grown harder, and had finally turned to stone. And that moment she realized why they both were alike. The darkness in his heart plagued him so much that he found it impossible to forgive himself. That, was his curse. She cried for him, and she cried for herself. She found out that deep inside her, she still believed. And so began her redemption.

Her story doesn't end here. On the way, she met another character, a princess. A poor princess. Now this princess was everything our adamant hero wasn't. She was a woman who believed in goodness, with every fibre of her being. She wasn't strong. In fact you could call her a coward.

But her faith was tremendous. She believed she could melt the prince's heart. She was the hope he'd lost somewhere in the deep pool of despair. She was the love he'd locked away in a hundred lifetimes. She was all the happiness,all the dreams he'd shared with the stars. And she was back, to take his hand and lead him to life. She laughed at fate, and fought it all the way. Her optimism scared him, but she just wouldn't give up. And no matter what he did, she smiled. The poisoned darts of hatred couldn't stop her for she was immune.

Now when our girl saw this poor princess, she cried, Oh no no, this is exactly how i was, once upon a time. That was when it struck her, that this was exactly how she was meant to be after all. She was meant to be kind and happy and giving. For goodness is often underrated.

So, as the girl joined the prince of darkness and his princess of light in their journey, she discovered something amazing. They weren't two, but one. She couldn't make out where one ended and the other began. She smiled as she realized that darkness, and light were both her.

And that, my friends is the story of my life!:P

👍🏼👍🏼This is such a beautiful one Liz!🤗 Extremely touching... Love can indeed bring so much faith that someone, who is willing to give it as many chances as it needs, can never be short of happiness. Not many realize the beauty of love until they are caught in it and those who fight happiness and faith because of their rigidity, end up being in darkness like the prince in your story. But then, there is definitely someone out there like the princess of your story who can light up that dark, without saying a word perhaps - only if they are allowed to... And again, fate is one such clever catalyst - when feelings are so powerful as love it's as if some force beyond one's control guides them to someone who can make them happy beyond their wildest imagination!!! It begins that journey where happiness is experienced along the way - for it can never be found at the end of the road, nor can it be achieved and stored. It is to be won over and over again - every time with a renewed passion, without taking any moment for granted. Only faith in one's heart can help see the beauty of the trials in winning over happiness, again and again... 😊
Faith makes all things possible... love makes them easy.

Hey Liz... always luv ur posts and as u've been told many a times before.. u write beautifully!
And I empathize with what you wrote totally...life shows its colors to you in strange ways.. sumtimes when you are down and out ..a little thing which might not hold any significance for anybody.. becomes ur light.. suddenly for sum strange reasons!! Anything that makes u hold on to that thread of sanity.. ray of light is a god's gift! So LTL is that god's gift to u...can totally understand why you treasure it so much!
I remember once down and out in despair I'd gone to see sum funny movie.. but as others kept laughing.. I kept crying.. as every little dialogue had a totally different meaning for me... every dialogue was punching me in my guts... what I got from that movie must have been completely differnt from what others must have go!
Hope LTL continues to be that ray of lite to you always... please CVs keep it that way!!

Adiii, I feel so good after reading your reply! 😊 Thanks, your appreciation means a lot. You are one person who writes so beautifully.

I wrote this coz Friday's episode kinda depressed me. I wanted to cheer myself up. 😃

To be won over and over again. That keeps happening to me. And that is the essence of LTL too. Naku is winning him over, with every act of faith. And, i will wait for him to win her over and over again. She deserves it. Her lovehas been such. Sigh.

Oh thank you Liz! 🤗 We must join a Mutual Admiration Society 😆 Well Nakusha is beautiful with beauty that isn't skin deep and the essence of her happiness is the smile of that one man she loves with her breath, smiles and tears - with immense faith in him. The point is whether he will be able to safeguard and keep that trust she has in him 😊 If he realises that "beauty" is like a book and you cannot judge it by its cover, he will be able to... but then, if life were so simple, he would not be a complex character in the first place... You know, all of us experience this one moment in life when we are with that someone special and it feels like the world - everything has come to a stop - and it's just us with that person - and life seems so perfect - that is the moment when we must tell ourselves that we are never going to lose this person, not matter what - no matter what the trials from hereon... Sadly, that man, did not realise when his moment came and passed by... so lets hope he gets another chance! 😊 And you, keep writing your mind while I sit back and read it... Awesome as you always are with words, it touches something deep inside, every time! 🤗

hey shalkanwar,

i understand. Totally. We all have our phases, and i think we're lucky that way. If not for these phases, how would we grow? And yes, like you put it, LTL is a ray of hope. That's why i love it, with its flaws. Thanks for reading my crazy posts. Glad you liked it. 😊

Beautifully written, liz!

I can totally relate to this. There has been times when I have been down due to some personal/day to day issues and LTL has lifted my spirits...One such time I can never forget is the whole sequence of Dutta's realization - after Jagtap's death till Nakku gets kidnapped . I was so happy after seeing those episodes that my family was asking me what made me so happy...There is such warmth in this story that it just spreads happiness.

But it works the other way too. I tend to get sad and worried when something bad happens in LTL...just like the current track...I just tell myself now that ...This too shall pass!

Am happy to know that LTL has given you that faith and hope in life! You go, girl! Keep smiling and keep believing!

Siiigh.

Do i dare hope, Adi? Dutta's getting a second chance, and i want him to win this time. This one act would absolve him of every sin. I wish Dutta redeems himself. I want to see his love win over all the evil forces.

The bit about not letting go of love, no matter what...WOW. Beautiful. ❤️
