[MEMBERS ONLY]
All through the first week of March we have been happy, giggling, laughing, shouting with Joy as our favored characters have gradually proceeded through a smooth, joyful path towards a highly welcome state of Life- The marriage,
However we all know that marriage is not free of tears and within the cheers and cries of joy, maybe ears are hidden.
Tears- tears of a daughter forever leaving the house where she was born and brought up, tears of happiness and sadness of a girl – who is gradually becoming a woman on her way to completion.
Tears of a father-who will have to part with the beloved daughter and give up his entire claim on the child he brought to earth
Tears of a mother-who happily sees her own reflection ,painfully feels her own parting years back, tears her heart out at the idea that her child will leave her, happy that the life she created is going to create another family, a new world of her own.
These are but the regular feelings that probably every girl and her family undergoes at such times.
But within this merriment lie some more reasons to cry. Soon Lord Ram will leave for Ayodhya. Right now king Dasarath feels he is the Happiest man around, Ram , Bharat, Laxman and Satrughna feels their bond so strong as never before. But we all know the destiny-true and hard is arriving. Soon the gala will be over, season of festival will be over and the events of sadness will proceed, one by one.
Little does dasarath knows what a terrible choice awaits him.
Even at Ayodhya, the three mothers are happy. Little does Mother Kaikeyi knows that the temptation she has reisted so far, the ill will in form of her most well wisher will soon cajole her to follow her , Kaikeyi little knows that all her heartfelt love, her greatness will be mired by the event of greatest selfish ness and cruelty she will perform under the moments illusion and will be illnamed for ever.
Little does Mothers Kaushalya and Sumitra knows how will their tears fall soon.
Little does Bharat, the just, devoted Brother knows what a terrible responsibility he will face, how he will have to repress his tears so that others will not cry.
Little doea Urmila knows, how she will have to live in tears for the next 14 years.
LAxman does not want to know, he has sacrificed all his feelings for his brother beloved
And Ram-SIta-well tears and joy are made for them, they make all to break it all.
Ye Hai Mohabbatein
Mangal Lakshmi
