| To the fullest :) |
Preetha had just got married and was in tears. She was forced
by her family into marrying this person, to save their reputation. She gave in
to their wishes because she loved her family more than herself. But she knew in
her heart that this new relationship would not last long.
Within six months into the marriage, everyone else in the
family too knew this would not last long. But still they wanted her to continue
living with the person, once again to save their reputation. She forgot how to
smile, or make friends and even shop anything nice for herself. Preetha decided
this time that she has to come to a conclusion for herself else both she and
her “husband” would be in pain all through their lives.
She stood to her stand and filed for a divorce. She lived alone
for 2 years and that period of being on he own changed her perception of life.
She met a guy who was able to make her smile and laugh at silly jokes. Though a
little hesitant at first, she learnt to love again.
Preetha took her time in believing a new chapter in her life
was opening up in her life. She wanted to be sure that she too could have a
happy family of her own. And during the monsoon, she and her guy tied the knot.
She knew what happiness in sharing was all about. He taught her it was good to
sometimes make bad decisions and face failures, because it helps us to be clear
when we take the next step in our lives. He was right; Preetha’s failure taught
her to keep her happiness as priority for the first time in her life. She knew
with all her heart that she had made the right decision in marrying him. In spite of few misunderstanding now and then,
all she had in her life was love, laughter and happiness.
Seeing her happy, her family too came around and were happy
with the turn of events. May be this is what they call the “Happily Ever After…..”.
