A fish and a bird may fall in love, but where shall they live?
They say love has no boundaries, but is that really true? "A fish and a bird may fall in love, but where shall they live?"—this question is not just about two different creatures. It is about the reality of love between two people who come from completely different worlds. Love feels magical, like it can overcome anything, but sometimes, love alone is not enough.
When love happens, it doesn’t follow logic. A fish and a bird don’t think about survival when they first meet; they only see the beauty in each other. The bird watches the fish swim so smoothly, feeling amazed. The fish looks up at the bird flying freely in the sky, feeling inspired. In those moments, they don’t care about their differences. They believe that love can solve everything, that if they are together, they will find a way.
But love does not exist in a world of just two people. Life asks questions—where will they live? The fish cannot survive in the air, and the bird cannot live underwater. No matter how much they love each other, they are made for different worlds. The bird cannot teach the fish to fly, and the fish cannot make the bird live in water. This is when love starts to feel difficult.
Many relationships face the same struggle. Two people love each other, but their lives do not match. They may have different dreams, different beliefs, or different responsibilities. They try to change, they try to compromise, but how much can a person change before they lose themselves? Love should make us feel safe, not make us question who we are.
At first, they tell themselves that love will be enough. They make sacrifices—one adjusts, the other gives up a little more. But slowly, they start feeling trapped. The fish cannot breathe outside water, the bird cannot stay still in one place. The love that once felt like freedom starts feeling like a burden. No matter how much they try, one of them will have to give up too much of themselves. And that is the hardest part—realizing that sometimes, love asks for more than a person can give.
So what happens next? Do they keep struggling to stay together, or do they let go? Some fight for love, refusing to give up, hoping that they will somehow make it work. Others understand that love is not just about being together—it is also about knowing when to set each other free.
