we can live in a godless world and not in world without love

Today I read a short story .the central character is a matured girl working in multinational company .one day she helps an unconscious person on the street and renders medical help at a private  hospital and the counter girl asks; is he your father? Then a flashback  …
she takes the old man to her apartment  and feels that the dead father has come to compensate this way. The fact of the matter is the old man is indeed rich  and the relatives snatch  him way after some time  not out of love but to get the signature on the property documents.
By strange and pleasant quirk of fate our heroine appears  on the scene and mediates when the old man refuses to sign on dotted papers. Our girl succeeds to settle the issue by asking   her  share in the property  as she  too has saved him from death and looked after for some time and bargains.
Guess what she could have asked?  Appa /father!.when blood relations trivialize love and want  his property and keen on abandoning him to the old age home , the girl who is virtually a bolt from the blue, an unknown and outsider  is so passionate and craving for father’s love  and considers  him as her property share and experience bliss and get soaked  in pure love.

Love is a source of delight and hence to be valued and the absence of which is a source of pain.It is only after death of the close relation we understand this simple truth. We can live in godless world but not in a world where there is no love.
