Little girl and her father were crossing a bridge.The father was kind of scared so he asked his little daughter ,'sweetheart;please hold my hand so that you don't fall into the river.'

The little girl said,'No ,dad.You hold my hand.''What's the difference?'Asked the puzzled father.

'There's a big difference,'replied the little girl.'If I hold your hand and something happens to me,chances are that  I may let your hand .But if you hold my hand,I know for sure that no matter what happens,you'll never let my hand go.

In any relationship,the essence of trust is not in its bind,but in its bond.

so hold the hand of the persons who like you rather than expecting them to hold yours.

what do you think?

Lilimira,

I love your statement,It has great value in relations.The real bonds become out of understanding & respects but not out of bonds.

this statement can be applied in relation to God also,

We should pray God to hold our hand rather than holding his hand.

Regards

it's a good question i think.

in fact,we should hold the hands who we love,and do not expect waiting for the one who love you.

hakimi, i think i can never do it.how can we marry someone we don't love.love has to be shared .

dev, i agree.we should love ,understand and respect each others to have bond.

tinhappy, most human's  are so selfish that we  like to have love not to be in love.that's why we wait for people to hold our hands.

i don't agree, hakimi.i can't share nothing with whom i don't love and i can't either  bear his/her presence.

love is shared .if you search for real love you'll get it.if you only like to be loved you'll get it too.we get what we search.and love from two parties existed and still exist.i have seen it in real life and i'm seeing it infront of me.it happens to people who understands it and not really frustrate their partener with controll and possession.
