Let me narrate to you a short story..Well, I don't promise it would be short one, because I often end up writing long write-ups..so my readers are requested to bear up:)
In the beautiful meadows there lived two friends...a kitten and a baby rabbit..They were the best of friends..innocent,understanding,with a heart brimming with love and care for each other..The rabbit was often threatened by his clan to keep himself away from the clever kitten..They thought that the kitten might harm their baby when she grew up into a cat..The rabbit did get frightened at times,but he trusted his cute kitty.Never even in her dreams could she imagine of causing any harm to her mate..this the rabbit knew well..They grew up spending happy jolly days together..bonded with love..they were always there with each other.Time went by..they grew up..a white rabbit with shallow pink eyes...a cute white spotless cat..the rabbit was quiet..the cat was chirpy..the rabbit was shy..the cat was brave..the rabbit was wise and the cat trusted his wisdom..the cat was naive and the rabbit trusted her innocence..They were incomplete without each other..they were complimentary to each other..
One sad and gloomy day the rabbit's mother died...for the very first time the cat saw tears in her friend's eyes.She understood that she could no longer afford to be kiddish..she had to be a friend as well as a loving and caring mom at times..The rabbit was in despair..he loved his mom like any other kid does..he was quiet..he wrapped himself with more silence...
The cat saw him through all these phases in life..and she understood in her heart..that her friend has lost so much..such a big loss...she had to be the best friend ever and give him all the love of the universe.
Finally the rabbit's clan decided to separate them for ever...Ages back they had had bad experiences with the cats..so they thought that cats are not good to be made friends with... :(
The rabbit pleaded..tried his best to convince that his friend was sooo good to him..she had such a nice heart..but there was no one to listen...The rabbit's family took him away with them to a different place..away from the cat..they were never meant to see each other again :(
The cat roamed about lonely in the places where she used to wander about with her best friend..Days turned into months,months to years..and they never met again...Destiny had separated them from each other.. :(
Now, my dear friends....tell me frankly how many of you related the cat and the rabbit to yourself and some dear friend whom you lost forever?And be true..you must have kept yourself in the place of the kitten..right?The one whose friend left her and went away...My dear friends..there is a famous saying in hindi "Dunia mein bahut gham hai..apna gham fir bhi kam hai".
The cat is sad...thats one part of the story..but did anyone care to think about the rabbit?Neither did his clan nor did you..all your sympathies went with the cat...right?
Try to look at the other side of the story..what happened to the rabbit?His clan did not care about him...separated him from his best buddy and thereafter till he lived,he had to live without his friend whom he loved equally..the cat could sit by her mom and tell how much she missed the rabbit..but to whom would the rabbit talk?
So,my dear friends...if ever you find yourself to be the cat...don't forget that wherever your rabbit is...he/she misses you equally..perhaps much more..rather than cursing destiny to have separated you,pray to God for your best buddy's happiness...Love and care have no bounds..no limits...let your love flow in the air and reach to your rabbit..He needs it more than you do...
hey.... very touching story....

most of the fights in friendship is not because one has a problem with the other.. its because
one cares tooo much and the other more than that..!!
