And I was thinking....

This is not the first time I have thought about it, but I never managed to solve this problem in my head ever. Finally writing it down, maybe that would help me clear out what I think in the first place, and comments are welcome. Why is it that when the world thinks something is great; I usually tend to disagree?
Heck,

Noticed how people talk about those “greatest” love stories and say… They lived a very difficult life, and loved each other so much that they died together?Is this really so?

I mean is this really great? Or is that love story which does not lead to people dying together, but forcing them to live with other people all their lives, knowing that they don’t love them, more difficult and "great"?

I am not talking about the “date and go” kind of relationships here. But I have for some reason always felt, that it is much more difficult to live a whole, complete life, while knowing that you yourself are incomplete by not having the one person you loved so much. It might have been your decision, or someone else might have made it for you. It doesn’t matter. In my view, I think the guys who die together, took the easy(easier) way out. I would have considered their love story a greater one, if they have went about their life, knowing they are not the happiest they could be. Isn’t that commendable? Or harder? I am not saying thats the way.. but...

Of course, such love stories always get hidden with the societal and family pressures, but they exist. Atleast I think they do. Why is it that they are never taken notice of? Because we are better, (read: safer) this way?

Its not just about love stories. When you really mean to find God, is it easier to leave everything and go to a place where you can be alone with no one to disturb you, or is living your life every minute, completing all your societal, financial, work and family duties, and still managing to spare ten minutes a day thanking him ( maybe begging for more! ) better?

I am not saying that the people taking the alternative ( read: saintlier/ greater) way are not that, but I don’t know if that the only and the best way it could be. I think God meant us to live the life he gave us. Aint no need to leave it and walk off...
I don’t know… How do you know when one thing is the right thing?
Aaargh..
