Nepe jyu, very interesting! to me love is more of giving than taking or expecting to receive anything in return. like they say, "the highest reward for a man's toil is not what he gets for it but what he becomes by it", i have always believed that true love is something which inspires and encourages you to emerge out as a better human being. but there are multitude of definitions of true love or love itself for that matter. your definition of total love is rather initimidating to me. hehe. i would never ever be able to reach to that level so it is out of question right away. it sounds good and reads good in the paper though :P that apart, i have been following your shayari series, except for few episodes. your political views about nepal greatly resonate with mine. i have found myself in awe by your literary prowess time and again. just felt like letting you know. keep up your good work :) LooTe
