The Big Illusion!!
There is no illusion that appears to be true like passionate love, nor a true fact that most of people deal with as if it was an illusion like death.
There is nothing that is more asserted like death. However, most people never think that they will definitely die. Even if they think, it wouldn't exceed a passing thought just like a passing breeze!
On the contrary, passionate love is always adorned by imagination, enlarged by fancy and embossed by vision. It always flames and dies, gets very hot and then cools down. All its affairs and turnings testify that it is a big illusion. However, we deal with it with respect, reverence, dedication and submission!!!
We keep on this until we wake up on the big shock and then we come to our senses for days, weeks, months or even years, but soon we surrender again.
The reason behind that confusion and misunderstanding is always a mistake in attribution. We attribute the beauty by which we are touched and the tenderness we tasted to the woman who possesses them, though she is not the real possessor of them. If the woman really owned her beauty, itwould have lasted for her for ever. Beauty never lasts for anyone because it is a gift from God with specific term. It is just a loan that God gets it back in its time. So, the real possessor of beauty is God, not any woman.
It is the same with everything we love regarding compassion, tenderness, cordiality, generosity, patience. They are all gifts and attributes borrowed from The Ever-Loving, The Ever-Compassionate, The Ever-Generious and The Most Forbearing.
