Seperation of heart is quite bitter than that of land or anything else. But, the biggest partition is of a child when he is forced to choose between one of his parent.

For any kid, the most unbearable thing is to see the seperation of his parents. No, matter who is it at fault, the father or the mother. But the most suffering one is kid as he goes through a lot of mental pressure and emotional traumas. When I learned about the divorce of Ruhi's parents, I was speechless. Ruhi was strong enough to handle herself but she just had only one question.
"Why my parents???"
I had no words to answer her all I could give her, was my shoulder to cry on. My head was flooded with number of thoughts.

Speration of my parents, both word & thought was horrible I couldn't imagine all of that but she was not fortunate to have her parents together anymore. When I asked her about the reason she was like, " I don't know when circumstances changed to this way. Every couple has their differences but that never means to take it to the end. They felt like they no more compatible for each other. Like after 20 years of marriage they say that, totally unbelievable."

Well her point does made a sense, then I calmed her down and said,
"Look, I don't have any experience of handling such situation. But, one thing I would say marriage is quite different from other relations of life but just few common things, love, trust and support and if you have the first two things the third one directly enters into relationship. I don't know how I would have managed this situation, but end of the day you can't run from truth, you have to accept that or you will be digging trouble for yourself. And if they have taken this firm decision then the situation must be worst then what it looks."

"But, they should have thought about me, the impact of their decision over my life", questioned Ruhi.

"Thats your family matter Ruhi, I can't say much about this but you can't force anyone to stay in a relationship, it's between two individual and it's their lookout how they carry it. Make yourself stand at their position and try to understand the flood that has covered their life. Neither you would choose to stay in a forced relationship".

She asked again," what you would have you done, if the same would have happened to you??"

"Actually, I really don't know, but I guess, I would have asked them to give their relation a last try and if still nothing would have changed I had to stand with them, still regreting this decision my whole life."

It took months for her to cope up with the whole situation but she did it. Sometimes it would be difficult for her as some craps would judge her of being a child to divorced parents but her ignorance was great answers to them. Not having parents is unfortunate but not having them together is even worse. She watched her parents being seperated, living in two different houses. Her life changed  into a total new world. She had 2 rooms each in different house. One for weekdays and other for weekend.

She often said," I feel myself like a river one part on one bank while the other part on other bank".
And my simplest reply to her was, "From where I see, you are the river in mid of two seperated banks, still keeping them together."
