“Love in Life is never a battle of
'win' or 'loss' but a journey of unconditional acceptance.”
INTRO
When I took a first glance of this
book, literally I thought “Second Spring” is nothing but another love story
that makes you travel a bit into dreamy land and ends with some obvious happy
ending. But here author surprised me this book is lot more than just a love
story. Not only you enjoy every bit of it plus you learn from every twist and
turns of its protagonist life.
STRUCTURE
Basically it is a story of a single
mother, Avantika who is bold and beautiful in every aspect of life. She always
believed in “not to lean on others shoulder” but when she met Rohan Rana she
felt a sudden urge towards him due to his innocence. She got confused first but
later on the connection been made. Though the feeling was mutual yet their
relation couldn’t work out and they separated.
No matter how much you try feelings
take time to overcome. Avantika was trying to get over that pain with some spiritual
learning and she accomplished it… suddenly Rohan reappeared and how things
changed..?
NARRATION
Here I want to say that I admired the
way Author narrated the whole story. The way she creates scenes is stupendous. While
reading the whole image was in front of my eyes.. it was like a smooth journey
where I met few interesting characters which made me realize about balance in
life through their experiences.
CORE
Sometimes you don’t want to read just
to get more stories, you read because you want to enjoy their little lovely or
dark moments. If you feel the same, this book is for you cause author tried to
create a whole life in front of us, you feel their pain, you smile with their
happy moments. So I loved the book. Must say it is a healthy one but you couldn’t
stop once you get started reading it.
Generally we can’t take interest or
we don’t have that much power to perceive what is happening behind the lighted
glimmering world of corporate. This book is passage for you to know about their
personal life. How they face challenges when it comes to relation.
READER’S MOMENT
Love has a tendency to go out of the
window when promises go awry, reality sets in, and responsibilities take over.
Women are emotional and proud
creatures. They need to be respected and cherished in a relationship or else things
don’t work out.
Life comes with no guarantees. Who
knows whether the next day’s sun will dawn at all? Best to savor everything
right now.
I loved the anonymity that a mega
city brought to my life. Nobody cared who you were or what you did, you were just
a speck in the crowd.
Loving someone selflessly would mean
praying for his or her happiness whether you are part of that happiness or not.
If you love until it hurts, there can
be no more hurt. Once we cross the deepest part of hurt, it doesn’t hurt
anymore. You become part of the eternal journey of love… no hurt, no worries,
and one just prays for the wellbeing of other person —that’s true love for you.
Innumerable poets and philosophers throughout history have tried to figure it
out— partially or incompletely. Love is a destined journey.
Perfect maturity is to understand why
your loved one did what they did, although their actions hurt you, hurting them
back is not an option.
Overall, It’s an light hearted
fiction, If you want to spend a beautiful weekend. Go For it.
