Love: Beyond the boundaries of Culture

The world has become a small village now a days. We are living in 21st Century, popularly known as technical era. Advancements in technology made it possible to have good social contacts. Social media is one of the biggest market in world and give people a possibility to come closer and exchange their views, ideas, etc. It give opportunity to learn about different culture, languages, customs etc. There is vast influence of social networking sites on intercultural love.

We have 195 countries on earth. Every country has their own customs, traditions, languages, culture. So, we have hundred thousands cultures on our mother earth. We can find the different way of expressing love and affections in a same country at almost every 500 Km. So, now the question is : How the culture affect the love? How it affect the relationships? How the different way of thinking on same thing of two people can affect the relationship?

Love doesn't see religion, caste, culture, country, language, continent. That's why it is mostly said that love is blind and it's the purest thing. But on the other hand religion, caste, culture, country, language, continent affect the Love. Because our personality and ideology is mould by these things, the environment where we are living affect us a lot. So, it affect the meaning of Love for different people. But then what we should do? Should we just not love the person from another culture? Should we give up on our love due to some misunderstandings? Should we always keep our feelings to us, don't tell to another person?

Life is not meant to be easy ever. It's full of ups and downs, full of anxiety and unturned pages. There are many examples in our society where the people from two different culture come close and fall for each other. Some of them spend their whole life together, some get separate after some time. But one thing is common in all, the problems they faced at first in their relationship. Obviously there will be some misunderstandings, some conflicts, different views on the same thing. But does it mean that we should leave each other. In my view, the best solution to every problem is discussion, a fair and honest discussion. When we are ready to listen to each other, accept our mistakes, ready to improve yourself, ready to understand the view point of your better half too- these all things let the two souls come more closer and stay together. Leaving each other when misunderstanding arises is not fair, every problem has solution in this world. If it has no solution, then it's not a problem at all.

We all are human beings, no one is 100% perfect. Everyone of us is having our strong and weak points in our characteristics. Does this mean that we cannot be perfect? No, we can try to improve our gray areas and improve yourself everyday. This is how the life should be. Sometimes we cannot see our weakness, we need a mirror to see it. There is no one better then your better half, because that person is the one who trust you blindly and want you to be your best. So, instead of leaving the hand at most important aspects of life, we must help our better half to overcome weaknesses and gray areas. The intercultural love is most beautiful thing, it help us improve yourself, learn new things, there are no expectations,being with a person who love you at every moment and stand by side of you.

Love is beyond the boundaries of culture- RY.
