Love, Dating and Relationships

Once Cupid’s mother, Venus became envious of the mortal princess, Pschye. Pschye was extremely beautiful and ended up attracting more and more than Venus, the goddess of love. So, Venus, who became furious, sent her son, Cupid to kill the princess.

However, instead of killing Pschye, Cupid found himself attracted to her beauty and forgot his task. They fell in love with each other and had a child as a blessing. But this love came with a condition. At any cost Pschye must never look at Cupid’s physical appearance. So, she lived happily in the gardens and castle that Cupid gave her.

Seeing her good fortune, her envious sisters decided to ruin her happiness. They tempted her to find out who and what Cupid looked like. Ladden with curiousity, Pschye secretly tried to find out how Cupid looked and she ended up spotting him. The very minute, her riches and castles disappered and she found herself all alone.

Determine to regain her lost love, Pschye tried to find Cupid and this search brought her to Venus. Venus, who was still envious gave her many tasks to finish. One of the tasks was to carry a precious box to Hades. Once again curiousity empowered her. She opened the box and relaesed the perpetual sleep. The perpetual sleep overcame her and she feel asleep.

Cupid found her in this state, lying lifeless. So he gathered the perpetual sleep back into the box.

Once Pschye finished her task, Venus was made to forgive Pschye. Jupiter who was pleased with Pschye’s tasks made her immortal. And then Cupid and Pschye lived happily ever after.

According to the Roman mythology, Cupid is the son of Venus, the goddess of love and . The name Cupid came from a latin word “Cupido“  which means love, affection, passion, desire, lust, etc.

According to the Roman mythology, Cupid is none other than Eros, the son of  Aphrodite, the goddess of love and Ares, the god of war.

He is known to as a winged and playful chebub who shoots arrows at everyone he thinks who ought to be in love.  There goes a story that Venus happened to be Cupid’s first victim when she accidently scratched herself against Cupid’s arrows. Instantly, she fell in love with the first man who came across her, which was Adonis.

It has been told that Cupid owns 2 sets of arrows. A golden arrow that symbolises pure love and the other was a leaden arrow that represented wanton and sensual love.

The days in my life were unnumbered. The nights were incessant too. I had crossed a million people in my life. Had a million dreams. But now, everything lays forgotten! It is because of you! Your the one in my mind, heart and soul. You run in my veins reaching out to my senses.

I lived like an utter idiot, not knowing why I am here and what I was doing. But now, I know I was born to serve you, my king! You taught me what was love, you taught me what was life, you taught me what was the pain of love, you taught me possessiveness, you taught me to sacrifice….. You ruled my life and won my heart. And now I am your slave, my lord! Your the one who taught me that my motto was to be your addict. Where were you all this while? My years were wasted without your presence. If only you had stepped in earlier, I wouldn’t have injured myself like this. Please my lord, my love! I am dying to show my gratitude for all that you had done for me… And my gratitude is Loyalty… Till my last breathe! I Love you.

Moving about all over the world, I didn’t know how to add color to my mundane life. My friends suggested that I should find myself a nice man. And my being a misanthropist, I never bothered to respect men. I started looking at every male as a pure scumbag. What else do these guys know? Woo every single girl in the lane, ask her out, get laid, move on to the next. This was like some never ending process to me. I never ever planned to respect them ever, after seeing my friend getting dumped while she was pregnant.

I work. All around the year, I get to move around the world. This means meeting new people, new surrounding, everything new! I hate that so called new life. But something new did happen this time.

I was to manage a group of dunderheads and be the “tuitor” for a week. Job’s good. Money’s good. But no new people please! But luxury came with a price, unfortunately. I had to carry on under an old man as my boss. So as I was herding the stupidest batch of sheep, some one interrupted my “Universal Corruption concept”, by walking into my cabin, ushering the other idiots away. The man was they typical “tall, dark and handsome”. He leaned over my desk, looked into my eyes and introduced himself that he was to be my boss for the day, as the oldie was suffering from a gout. He stole my heart the vey minute. There was so much genuity in his lustrous eyes. I felt like melting. The whole day I was staring at him rather than listening to what he was talking.

The next day, I was eagerly awaiting the wonder man. But instead I get a disappointment. My old, Mr. Thomas, hoard with age limps in. And then onwards I search and search for “the male”. But no luck. Never had I felt like this before to anybody. Nor will I in the future!!

I have seen a million chicks all over the world. Tall,  fair, ebony, blond, brunette,… Spoken to these and learnt a lot about them. They all were wretched. Completely devastating! Hanging around, partying, parading around the place in skimpy outfits. They nearly create an accident around the corner. Why, there are a million brainless, scantily dressed damsels everywhere and they make all the eyes to pop out. Big deal!

Lately, I ran across this girl somewhere. She made me tell myself that she was an angel. Woah! Terrific in attitude. Of course she had an attitude, I felt. She was rather subdued and made me wonder at times if she was born dumb. She never cared about the world. Neither did she take an attempt to make the world come behind her by goggling and winking at everyone. The babe was so elegant with a perfect demeanor that I wanted to make her mine. Tall and being a brunette, she strutted across me like a wild tigress. She was not so fair, but I knew that the little heart was ticking with purity.

And I kept staring at her till she vanished from sight. I had no heart to return back home, but instead thought of following up this maiden. But I had my tasks to get done with. Later, the next say. I stood over the same spot hoping that I would run across her again. Till date, I am… But I never saw the babe who made me crazy!

The night was dark and humid. I lay on my bed looking out through the window at the bright starts and the moon. Suddenly the moon smiled back at me. No, not that again! The rolled over, picked up the syringe and plunged it deep inside my veins, the welcome panacea. It felt so warm as it rushed inside reaching out to every single nerve-ending. In a moment, I felt the world around me blur. I turned to look back at the moon, which I faintly remembered smiling at me. I raised one trembling hand towards it as I laid on my bed in a stupor, trying to grab it ( grab her) to sit by my side. But all that my fists could gather was emptiness.

A tear of disappointment rolled down my cheek. “I will get her into my arms for sure, tomorrow”,I told myself. And I reminded myself that this was what I had been promising myself each day ever since she left me alone to suffer in this world. Maybe her spirit mingled with the moon in the sky and thats why I could see it smile back at me.

I reached under my pillow and felt the cool metal on my skin. I pulled it out and stared for the umpteenth time at the  chain she wore. I let the chain graze my cheek. It resembled the sensation of her soft hair caressing my cheek. I clenched my fist tightly around the chain till it started to hurt. Why did she do this to me? She made a bloody drug-addict and a loser of all times. She knew that I was an orphan. She succumbed me towards all happiness in life and suddenly vanished into thin air… Babe, If you ever knew how much I loved you and still love you, you would come back to me right now!!

John stepped into his home, all sweaty and tired from work and plopped into the couch and the next minute, something warm and soft and fragrant swooped over him onto his laps. He saw her green eyes sparkling with love and excitement that he remembered spotting it the first time they looked into each other’s eyes. She had something steaming hot in her hand and he realized that he was holding coffee for him from the smell that drifted off from it.

The pretty thing was all dressed up, he noticed. And she wore a pretty dress in black. She ruffled his hair and cooed gently in his ears about how much she loved and cared for him.

A few months later, John stepped back into his home, just the same. Sweaty and tired! And his pretty thing came running to him announcing him that there was a good news for him. John looked carefully at her and realized that the wicked girl knew how to seduce him. But, he discovered an extra glow on her face and she was swelling in happiness as she broke the news to John that she was expecting John junior soon. John could never forget how proud he had felt back then and how he loved his beautiful mermaid.

Those ten months passed with incessant love and care. Both for his pretty sweetheart and also for the naughty junior, paining and troubling her inside. And then came the day, which almost brought blood from John’s eyes as he saw her straining and struggling to give him his boy safely. The tender flower over which he took so much care as to not to hurt even a single finger nail was heaving and panting here as if a million knives were tearing her apart.

John didn’t care for the other women in the world then, but he badly wanted his lady not to endure the pain of childbirth. And as he prayed, God showed him some mercy by making it short. John saw his baby boy covered in miserable blood that came from her womb.

And as the years went by, her pretty face started to shrink, her green eyes started to turn blind and her jet black hair started to turn white. Yet, she was still the most beautiful woman John had ever seen.

Their son grew up to be a gentleman and he found himself a good wife as John did. And they were trembling to walk and scared of tripping. One day, his pretty wife started to clutch her chest in agony and John panicked unable to be of any help. She was shrieking her head out in pain as blood started to trickle down from her nostrils. The nostrils, which once upon a time, he praised to be the most beautiful nose ever was smeared with blood.

She was rushed into a hospital and she was taken away from John to an isolated cabin for critical conditions. There had not been a day where he was separated from her divine presence when he needed her the most. Today, for the first time, she was not near John as his heart was continuously begging for her.

And then John was asked to visit her. He walked as promptly as his injured knee would carry him to his love. And it was a sight that John had been dreading. She looked weak and pale and her eyes tiny and wrinkled. His pretty maiden laid in front of him the way he had never wanted her to…

“Please don’t leave me and go, Della!”, John pleaded her, his eyes blurred with tears. She scanned him completely for one last time, sucked in her last breath and she raised one trembling and wrinkled hand to John, her eyes still on his and she uttered one last unrecognizable word and stayed still.

Her eyes were not moving but staring at him, she was not breathing, but John’s heart was continuously pounding, gladly wanting to share its heartbeats with her. But she never knew what he wished that moment. It was death that split them apart and now is going to unite them again.

Hello everybody! I know that all you guys n gals out here are struggling to hold on to dear life with the kinda job that you’ve been forced into.  Cluster of  problems everywhere, I tell you!!! Its like waging a war every single day.

Firstly, I die trying to convince myself to get up from bed every evening.  My alarm gets  postponed by 5min every time it goes off. I turn a deaf ear every single time.

And at last i open one lazy, red, swollen  eye to see the dark room and I realise that I can’t skip my bath today as I have been carrying myself for 2 whole days without a bath, just relying on my deo.  So I drag feet which felt like lead to the bathroom.  Once I m done, my mom comes fussing over me, asking me to wear something else and to comb my hair properly. Finally,  I m all set to go and  start my bike, thinking that its too late… No petrol!!! 

Oh god! Now what?  So i catch an auto and run into my office and there I get a great welcome. So I repeat my promising words and dialogues that I would be on time hereafter and after one severe warning they let me carry on with my work. And there, sitting in front of my computer, I start snoring away to glory and someone had to prod on me before I realise that I had been dosing with the customer on the call. Wow!  Never heard anybody swear me like that lady.

So this goes on and on and finally I mercy myself and start back to home.  And when I m about to hit the sack… I get a call,”Hi honey, shall we go out somewhere?” . From nowhere I lose all my tiredness and I sit straight on my bed,wide awake. “Where to, sweet?”. I can never say a no to her!

So,there you go guys… This is how I’ve been spicing up my mundane and idiotic and otherwise boring life…

It was fun when my mom and dad sat me on their backs and rode me a piggy back. I loved it so much that I always ended up asking for more. Why,I was the reason why my mom landed up with a back pain.

I badly wanna get someone one my back and ride them around.And then I set my eyes on this beautiful lady trotting around like a wild horse on fire. I badly wanted to make her mine and ask her to be my soul mate forever,no matter what happens. What happened to be my dream came  true and she is now my lady of fortunes. And I ask her to sit on my back and take her on a piggy ride as she tenderly sits on me like a flower,clapping her hands like a little kid and hanging on to me like how I did on my mom’s back.

And now,my dream continues as the older ones get fulfilled. When would I ride the little naughty boy whom I consider to be my present from my lovely queen for keeping her happy? And later on,the cute tiny rose petal who would ressemble her mom and gently rely on me for all het needs?When would I carry them around and when would the four of us pillow fight?

God,only if you had provided me with a magical remote,I would zoom my life and forward it to where I want! I cant wait for those happy days.
