Eternal Stories

Every story has some important lessons concealed inside the pages, its just that we need to be open and receptive to find those treasures and learn from them. Few gems, that reached the core of my heart, I have listed below.

We read, while reading we travel to the different land and relate to the characters of the story easily. The story has something to offer but we need to be receptive to pick that point. One story that touched my heart was that of “King Lear”, a tragedy play written by “William Shakespeare”. I really enjoyed reading this drama. This drama based on a father and daughter’s relationship can not only melt your heart but you will feel as if a rivulet is rolling down from your eyes. How greed, lust, jealousy, infidelity can bring storm in your life. And, the true love has to pass many litmus tests. But, love that is true, unconditional, pure, selfless comes out bright likes gold even after burning in the fire. How, King Lear decided to divide his kingdom amongst his three daughters on the account of the confession of love they have for him. His one wrong decision changes the entire circumstances, just like our life.

“Pride and prejudice” by “Jane Austen” still rules my heart, the love story between the heart throbbing “Mr. Darcy” and the bold and beautiful Miss Bennett strengthens my faith in love, that love has the capacity to remove the curtains of pride and prejudice. No matter how difficult the road is, if you have faith and your intentions are pure love wins.

“The Grapes of Wrath” by “John Steinbeck”, has so much to teach, the story revolving around the Joads and Wilsons speaks about that humanity can survive even amidst the crisis. The very act of feeding the starving man reveals that compassion and kindness does not depend on outer circumstances. And if you have the spirit to walk with faith you can cross all mountains.
