Today is an eventful day for Adi-Shakti, as usual, she received a godly gift from her husband and now sitting here on the swing beside him making her feel perfect. She is sitting leaning into him. Her head is on his shoulder, while his hand is wrapped around her securing her in his embrace.

She is well aware that He loves such moments more than the entire cosmos. They were like two pieces of a puzzle that can't be complete without each other ever and without them complete this cosmos can never be complete.

Her mind traveled back to the exact moment their journey of being apart started and how much they have been through to get each other. A lone tear escaped her eyes falling on his land making him look at her worries."Parvati what happened? What made my Uma cry at this special auspicious occasion?"

"Nothing swami I am thinking how much we have been through to get each other but in the last we found each other making every struggle worth it."

"We were never apart Uma no matter in which form we are in anywhere in this cosmos we will find a way to each other. You are my home Gauri no matter wherever I will go your voice always brings me back to you. Shiva can never be Devadhidev without Shakti. It's you Parvati who makes me Mahadev.

There is nothing in this cosmos without you. When you left me as Sati everything around became meaningless. You aren't the only one who died that day I died along with you. Shiva's soul died with Sati. I left everything behind waiting for you to return with your glorious light and fill me with life again. For a moment I decided to abandon this whole cosmos and disappear but then I look around and realized you never left me alone you left this whole cosmos behind as a part of you and no matter how much pain I am in I can't leave behind anything related to you.

I waited and one day it got over, the day when my eyes fell on you standing beside the burning body of Kama. My eyes fell on you and I felt alive all of a sudden. After everything, I finally got you back and this time forever. I will not able to let you go this time at any cost."

"Swami I always wanted to ask you two things. You can anytime see me with your third eyes but you never did it why? And why you burn the Kama his illusion will never work on you anyway?"

"Well you are right Parvati I was able to see you at any time but I never did this because if I wouldn't be able to control myself if I saw you. I wanted you to grow and learn about things on your own. I wanted to let you make a decision about what you want and find me of your own free will. I wanted you to come to me. And the Kama has to die he dared to touch you my Shakti. His elusive arrows pierced you and then he aimed at me. Our reunion is completely pure and pious and outer interference can ruin its essence resulting in distress.

You have to suffer and feel extreme pain again. I was not born and don't have a human body but you had and this will affect you. I got you at that time and don't want fate to write another parting in your destiny. I love you way too much to let any harm befall on you." A lone tear escaped Shiva's eyes and fall into Adi Shakti's hand turning into a "Pearl of Love".

She smiled wiping the leaking tears from his eyes and looked adoringly at the Rudraksha of her hands. There are very few moments in which her husband opens up like this. He is always a man of few deep meaningful and impactful words. He sharing such heartfelt words and expressing his love so openly is a big thing for her.

She is relishing this moment looking at his smiling face. They were basking in love for each other when the voice of women fell in her ears."Ma Gauri blesses my daughter to be a light in other's life showing the world away through her sacrifices. Bless her be like you who fill liveliness and happiness in the life of anyone she meets in the journey of life."

"Tathastu may your daughter be like a shiny star in the night. I bless them with my purity and strength. They will face every pain and trouble with a smile and remain pure in every circumstance." Adishakti answered the prayer in a trance.

Shiva smiled at her wife's innocence and the game of fate taking place around them without her realization. He turned around her and looked into her eyes breaking her trance making her turn her eyes wider as realization dawned upon her.....................
