I have found almost everything written ever about love to be true. Shakespeare said "Journey end in lovers meeting.".....Ohh what an extraordinary thought. Personally, I have not experienced anything remotely close to that......but i'm more than willing to believe Shakespeare had.
I think about love more than anyone really should. I'm constantly amazed by it's sheer power to alter and define our lives. It was Shakespeare who also said , "Love is blind". Now, that is something I know to be true.
For some, quite inexplicably......love fades, for others love is simply lost. But then, of course love can also be found even if just for a night. And then there's another kind of love. the cruelest kind, the one that almost kills it's victims...it's called unrequited Love. Of that I am expert :))
Most love stories are about people who fall in love with each other. But what about the rest of them?
What about our stories? Those of us who fall in love alone.....
We are the victims of the one-sided affair.
We are the cursed of the loved ones.
We are the unloved ones. The walking wounded. The handicapped without the advantage of a great parking space. Yes, you are looking at one such individual. And I have willingly loved that man for years. The absolute worst years of my life. The worst Christmas, the worst birthdays, New Year's Eves brought in by tears and Valium. Those years I've been in love have been the darkest days of my life .............all because I am cursed by being in love with a person who does not ......and will not love me back.

Those who know me personally will be amazed to hear these words from me......but lemme tell u this is not exactly my story. Most of you wud easily identify with these thoughts.....it might be an exact replica for some of u, for others it may be a small reflection of their life.....m sure of it. This is just one side of 'Being in Love', there is another side to it and we will touch that sometime later.
true... one lesson that I learned from one of my friend's father which helped me a lot....
ReplyDeleteyou can always win people by your love... love has the power to change anyone... it has always worked for me so far..
