You can't always be DiCaprio in Titanic.

Hi princess,

As you can see, today it is about this brilliant film. I hope you have watched the movie. It is about realizing something very important in our lives. This movie can teach us a lot about love, relationships and also destiny. I hope you find today's letter a ray of hope in dark times.

Every guy who watches this movie imagines himself to be Leonardo diCaprio(Jack), but sometimes in life we are like Cal Hockley. 

In our modern day complex relationships, it often happens that we fall out of love. We leave our partners or are left behind. Moreover, they leave us for someone else or choose someone else.  When this happens, our whole world comes crashing down. We destroy ourselves, go into fits of anger, hatred and crippling depression. It takes months to come out of the fact, that they are not there and that they could do such a thing.

We have got to realize, that maybe sometimes, their "true love" is not us. It is somebody else. Yes, I know sweetie, it is a heartbreaking realization. But, we cannot be Leonardo DiCaprio always. We cannot be Jack always. Sometimes, we are like Cal Hockley. They are out of love with us. And we do not accept that fact. Moreover, we are standing in the way of a beautiful story. Their story. They are in love with someone else entirely, their Jack. Just like Cal, did a lot of horrible things in a fit of rage, we do the same. We cannot force someone to love us.

But, was it really worth it? Did he get Rose back?
No.

We can be better than Cal in our lives. Yes, there will be seething anger, crippling depression and nervous breakdowns. But, we must survive this disaster. For ourselves.

Maybe this time we are not Jack. But, sometime later we will be.
We will find our Rose.
And then, we can shout our hearts out.
I AM THE KING OF THE WORLD.

Yours lovingly,
Dad


P.S - There's a difference between real life and movies which they often do not show. Often, someone may leave you, not because they love the other person. But because of fun and they have been habituated to do so. In this case, movies do not offer any particular answer.

P.P.S - Same thing happened with Rani Mukherjee in Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham.
