Zahir

Today, I want to step away from the rules and talk about lost love. This talk is inspired by a book is written by Paulo Coelho's Zahir.

Zahir is an Urdu word and the he has named his is so apt because it is about the journey to finding your lost love.

This story begins the same way as all the stories did, a guy and a girl spent time together so much they understood each other's every quirks as if they were their siblings.

Eventually, they got married but over time the guy drifted away emotionally and the girl concentrated more in her career.

She left one day without saying a word. Initially, he felt relieved but then he started her missing in every aspect of his life. The partnership he shared with her, the camaraderie was the thing he missed the most.

He went through massive lengths to find his wife and when he did he felt spiritually enlightened.

It is never too late to tell someone that you love them. As I see it Love is not dependent on the other it is a beautiful emotion that makes you feel something you have never felt again.

For Love, we can go anywhere and do anything. Like this guy did, he went around the world to find his lost love and expressed his love. Zahir = Expression!

What makes us stop to say what we feel? why do we hide our feelings?

Hadse toh sab sehtey hai,
Gham toh sab samaya hai,
Par dil hi ek aisi rehnuma hai,
Jisne inn sabke bavajud humein hasna seekhaya hai!
