Story about Krishna and his two favourite wives.

Rukmini-Krishna

Rukmini was the first wife to Krishna.
She loved him a lot. However, with time she realized that giving her time was a big issue for Krishna.
As king of Dwaraka, Krishna had to spend lot of time with yadavas, well-wishers, seven-other wives and look after his kingdom. All these kept him occupied and he couldn’t give her time or attention she had deserved.
Rukmini made peace with it. She understood that everyone wanted to spend time with Krishna as much as her and they also loved him as equally as her.
She accepted this weakness and started to experience his love even in his absence. She saw omnipresence in his love.
That’s how their relationship stayed strong.
Krishna-Satya
Satyabhama was the third wife to Krishna.
She was fiery, short-tempered and very possessive.
She always demanded love, attention and time from Krishna irrespective of his other commitments. She wanted him to be with her always and desired to be his most favourite queen.
Krishna made peace with it. He understood that her impatience, selfishness and arrogance, all stemmed from her strong love towards him.
He accepted her weakness and did everything (taking her everywhere he went, touching her feet, uprooting parijata plant and giving it to her) to make her happy. He never got angry or annoyed at her tantrums.
That’s how their relationship stayed intact.
The thing that made the relationships work in both the cases is
Acceptance & Adjustment.
It is near-impossible to find perfect people.
As humans, we are not cut out to be perfect. We are multi-dimensional characters. We have anger, jealousy, priorities, selfishness, mediocrity, impatience etc.
Everyone of us come with our own set of flaws. We all try to be good but situations sometimes bring out different facets of us.
If your partner’s imperfections are within your tolerable limit, the best thing you could do is to accept them, make peace with their behavior and find ways to live with them without letting your relationship getting disturbed.
Togetherness lies in making peace with these differences.
If you think that there is larger happiness in your relationship, then
  • Sometimes you need to give primary importance to the relationship and put yourself beneath it
  • Sometimes you need to accept that it is okay to lose yourself to make your relationship win
  • Sometimes you need to realise that you can’t change people as you want and you need to let them be.
That’s how successful relationships grew and sustained.
The truth is, none of us are easy to date, deal with, or please all the time. We all have our vices, attitudes, & way of doing things that make

The Day I Lost A Person Full Of Unconditional Love - My Grandfather

It was the hardest day of my life. My heart sank to the stomach and I was at loss for words. All I could do was cry. It’s true when they say that a phone call can change your entire life in just seconds. 17 September 2019 - a day l will never forget. It was a day that my world became less bright, less fun, and less right. My heart ached. My vision blurred. The only thing going on in my mind was - I’ve never lived in a world where he didn’t exist. I’ve never lived in a world where he did not draw breath.          1 year has passed since then.   These days, I must learn how to overcome the kind of pain that all of us must go through: the death of someone we love.   I still remember, how he used to get me a khare shengdana every day after school. How he used to tell me stories before dinner. How he used to laugh on my lame jokes. And then I remember his body has now turned into ashes. That smile along with his photo has now sunk into the river bed. I keep getting snapp

Forgive but don’t Forget

After every heartbreak, I ask myself - Revenge or Forgiveness? The answer to this is very simple - Forgive but don’t Forget! Now you would say - Easier said than done. You are right, forgiving someone is difficult especially if the heart was involved in it. But always remember, your past is your greatest teacher. It’s up to you to become its greatest student. To learn, you need to forgive without forgetting. Forgiving the person means letting go of the bitterness inside you. No matter how deeply you are hurt, you will heal. Always remember it's their loss, not yours. They lost someone who cared deeply for them, whereas you lost someone who was eventually going to hurt you. ( iss mein tera ghata mera kuch nahi jata :D ). Wish best for them and move on. I’m not saying you should not feel the hurt or mask it. Getting in touch with your emotions is a necessary step for healing. But once healed, let go of the person. Caging them in mind is going to increase your hurt or hatred, which
