I am so in love with The Fountain Head written by Ayn Rand, a writer of great power.
Howard Roark,the intransigent young architect, egotist and self sacrificing, one who knows what he wants from his life, a man of definite integrity, who never surrendered in challenging situations, strong mind and loyal to his own virtues. A man who loved a woman, named Domnique, different, arrogant, unpredictable to others. She chose a path of suffering to get her true love. She endured pain, blocked her lover's success while suffering, a feeling that kept them together without speaking to each other for seven years.
This is all about a feeling which I felt similar to Roark's feeling towards Gail, Dominique's loyal husband. He was the owner of Newyork banner's, a newspaper who promoted and supported the selfish people. Fooled innocent public with their crafty and deceiving writing.
Gail who loved Howard as a person but didnt have courage to fight against his own betrayment.
Feelings of Howard similar to what i felt a long time ago for someone....
A letter by him to Gail,
" Gail, I know. I hoped you could esacpe it, but since it had to happen, start again from where you are. I know what you're doing to yourself. You're not doing it for my sake, it's not up to me, but if this help you I want to say that I'm repeating, now, everything I've ever said to you. Nothing has changed for me. You're still what you were. I'm not saying that I forgive you, because there can be no such question between us. But if you cant forgive yourself, will you let me do it? Let me say that it doesn't matter, it's not the final verdict on you. Give me the right to let you forget it. Go on just on my faith untill u've recovered. I know it's something no man can do for another, but if I am what I've been to you, you'll accept it. Call it blood tranfusion. You need it. Take it. Do it for my sake if that will help you. But do it. Come back. There will be another chance. What you think you've lost can neither be lost nor found. Don't let it go."
But i know the time has gone for these words..The person has become deaf and he surrendered...
This is HIS wish, the Big hand and the creator thats what people believe.
I know the truth, The man who changed himself and didnt remember a single word...How many of us are victims to this? How many of us due to EGO never speak to people whom we had met in life, by saying you are not the same person to me any more...how many have got the courage or guts to heal our own wounds and still accept people...and they claim that we are dependents. Do they hear themselves while talking!!!!!!
How many of you lose a person just because of ego(when you have done something wrong and not the person you left), blaming....
Do you ever try to smile or say hi when you see that person by chance or do you even try to get in touch. I MAY ASK why do we let our weakness win. Why for the happiness we kill and hurt those who gave their heart and soul.
People say every one has to go through this phase....
You meet people by chance for the first time later is your choice to treasure them or throw them!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy Valentine's day to all!!!
