Is True Love a Fairytale?

Ever caught yourself wondering why we sometimes chase after love that turns out to be nothing but a mirage? It’s something I think about a lot, especially when I’m watching Shah Rukh Khan’s romantic movies. They make love seem so epic and magical. Let’s chat about the real deal with love, the fake kind, and why we sometimes fall for people who aren’t the best match for us. And, of course, I’ve got to talk about how Shah Rukh Khan’s movies have painted my view of love in a pretty dreamy light.

True love, to me, is like that cozy, warm feeling you get when everything just feels right. It’s about sticking together even when things get tough, not just when everything’s all fun and butterflies. Shah Rukh Khan, with his charm and epic love stories, really gets this across. His movies show love as something deep and strong, something that lasts through all kinds of challenges.

But then, there’s fake love. It looks all shiny and exciting at first, promising you the world, but it leaves you feeling empty. Why do we fall for it? Maybe it’s the thrill, or maybe we’re scared of being alone. It’s like in those movies where the hero falls for the wrong person before finding their true love. Sometimes, we have to learn the hard way.

And here’s where it gets complicated—why are we attracted to people who don’t seem right for us, or why do the people we love not love us back? It’s a puzzle, really. Sometimes, it’s because they hold qualities we wish we had in ourselves, or perhaps it’s the thrill of chasing something that seems just out of reach. Shah Rukh Khan’s movies have this recurring theme, where love is about overcoming barriers, fighting against all odds. It makes you wonder if maybe, just maybe, the heart sees things that our logical minds can’t.

All these love stories and Shah Rukh Khan’s roles have made me a bit of a dreamer when it comes to love. His movies make you believe in the power of love, that it can overcome anything. But they also remind you that love isn’t always easy. It takes work, understanding, and the guts to be open and real with someone.

So, thinking about love in all its forms, from the fairy-tale kind to the real-life tough kind, I’ve learned a lot. Love is complex, exciting, and sometimes a bit of a rollercoaster. But it’s worth it. As we go through our own love stories, let’s remember the lessons, cherish the feelings, and hope for a love that’s not just like in the movies but real and lasting.

Journal Entry – March 10th, 2024

Hello, everyone! How are you? I am Dhanushka Koggala, 28 years old, coming from Sri Lanka. I have some very large dreams, but the thing is, I am an introvert person and I don’t have many friends. And my parents are always on my back, telling me to go out, have fun, and make some friends. But, to be honest, I don’t feed on drama and always like kind of low-key life. Actually, I do not have even a single good friend to whom I will be able to speak directly. I felt that my thought process is a bit unlike most people. So, the plan for today was to start the diary myself. I am going to take notes of my daily life, who I talk with, and what I do; everything is going into this log. I really don’t know who will end up reading the entries in this log, but here we go – Day 01 of my diary.

Discovering Your True Purpose: 5 Essential Tips for a Meaningful Life Journey

Are you ever caught up in the hustle and bustle of daily life, feeling like you’re on autopilot, just going through the motions? If that sounds familiar, you’re definitely not alone. Many of us are on the quest to find our true purpose, to discover that spark that makes life not just livable but meaningful. So, how exactly do we embark on this journey of self-discovery and start living a life filled with purpose? Let’s dive into some practical tips to guide you along the way.

First things first, start by asking yourself what truly lights you up inside. This isn’t about what job pays the most or what others expect of you. It’s about those moments or activities that make you lose track of time, where you feel completely engrossed and alive. Whether it’s painting, coding, teaching, or even organizing, these are clues to what your purpose might involve.

Next, reflect on the times you’ve felt most fulfilled. When did you feel like you were making a real difference? These moments can reveal your values and the impact you wish to have on the world. It might be helping others achieve their goals, protecting the environment, or making art that moves people. Whatever it is, understanding what fulfillment looks like to you is a giant step towards finding your purpose.

Don’t be afraid to experiment. Life isn’t about finding one single purpose and sticking to it forever. It’s about exploring different paths and seeing what resonates with you. Take that pottery class, volunteer at the local shelter, or start that blog you’ve been thinking about. Each experience will teach you something about yourself and bring you closer to discovering your purpose.

Connect with people who inspire you. Surrounding yourself with passionate and motivated individuals can spark your own sense of purpose. These connections can offer invaluable insights, encouragement, and even collaboration opportunities that can help you on your path.

Lastly, remember that finding your purpose is a journey, not a destination. It’s okay if it evolves or changes entirely as you grow. What matters is that you’re taking steps towards living a life that feels meaningful to you.

By staying curious, open, and true to yourself, you’ll find that your purpose might just be closer than you think. So, what’s the first small step you can take today towards a more meaningful life?
