Totally agree with you on the family thing. I've never understood the people who so easily expect Pallu to leave her family and move on. Is it that easy? Family means a lot of things, and imo the most important meaning is that you keep trying to make it work no matter what happens, you're still linked with each other no matter what. If your Mom or dad says/does something that goes against your principles, you will definitely speak out against it and have a tiff. But will you end up breaking ties and leave the house? Is it that easy a decision! Nope, never! In most cases, that option never even strikes our minds, no matter how bad the disagreements get. That's what being family entails. And for Pallavi, a girl who's been deprived of a family forever, the Dfam was the first one she got. They are even more precious to her than those of us who have a family since birth. How can you blame her for treasuring them with her life? She can never take their love for granted the way we sometimes do with our families!
@green: You have penned this so beautifully Ashi ❤️ I feel like it came straight from my heart.
@bold: This is beautifully described. Personally, I have both divorced and widowed mother figures in my life, and I'm very close to both of them. The pain in the two cases are similar yet very different. In both cases you have to deal with the aftermath of an ended marriage, and painful memories that hurt you. In one case, however, you end your marriage because of the pain, and in the other case the end of your marriage is what brings you that pain. The biggest difference is your choice. You chose to have that divorce, but when you're widowed you had no choice over it. It just struck you down like a bolt of lightning, and now you gotta make your way forward despite it. It hurts like damn hell, especially when you remember those memories, those unfulfilled promises. It's like a story that never got to be finished. The one I know, she kept trying to find out if the doctors had made any mistakes in treating him. For days and months she just kept poring over the prescriptions and the medicines and googling what side effects they have, to find out anything that directly contributed to his death. It's a very very painful journey, and it takes a lot of time and love from your close people to be able to get over it. And even when you do, you carry on the memories of that person.
For Pallavi's case it's even worse bcz the death was an accident and she has no real idea how it happened. How can you blame her for seeking a closure? Or for trying to pay respect to the person's memories?
