Hey girls don't ....

I read a beautiful piece in The Speaking Tree this morning. It is an article which features the message of Osho.

It is on love- simple emotion made so complex by Man. He cites the following. When a boy throws a stone at a girl ( a small one, maybe a paper ball too) he does so because he cant touch the girl( in our Indian society, not that easy!!) but at least he is satisfied that the paper /stone touched her.

It is kind of accepted that boys chase girls. And girls keep running away. Osho says, hey girls, run, but stop to turn. Don't keep the chase on till it gets nasty. Often girls do not realize in the chase the boys end up getting so hurt and it leaves a rage that could turn nasty. It is in our hands not to let it go so violent! If you like a person, go ahead and speak your mind. If you do not like say it so as not to be condescending or hurting! Truth doth hurts!

Boys ought to accept rejection as manly as they can too. Let us not complicate this beautiful emotion. Let it not be coloured with violence!!
