Sometimes losing your love is like pouring a drink outside of your glass. You know there was something in there, you can still smell it and taste it but you can never put the same drink back unless you get another drink. The irony is, that's the only drink you want but there's nothing left...
When you're inlove, you only see what your heart wants to see. You only look at love as how your heart melts when you see that person or how your knees weaken. You felt bad if the person wont give you the response you expected. I still remember way back in high school when I saw my crush with another girl, I didn't eat the whole day because I was really hurt...so I thought. Was that love? Maybe... Somehow love is based on how you experienced it. Your definition of love is based on the intensity of your emotions. But there should be more to it. Love isn't just about butterflies and rainbows. It isn't just about the happiness it brings and its perfection. We tend to forget the sharp edge of blades that love could possibly give. Love is never perfect. Perfection is only for fools, people who foolishly believe that love is a many splendored thing. True love is a decision, a commitment, a responsibility. When you fell inlove with someone and that person is the one you would want to spend the rest of your life with, you then make a decision to love that person, you commit to that love and you take responsibility on your actions. Because when love is lost, its more likely to die than to return. It will leave nothing but memories, bittersweet memories...
I have loved and have lost. I've been hurt and cheated repeatedly. But never for an instance, that I blamed love and asked faith why it gave up on me. Because when I was lost because of love, love also showed my way back. I may love and be hurt again but who cares, life is like that. If you don't get hurt you'll never know the value of love and without love, life is useless.
At some point, regardless of how we define love, no matter how good or bad we experienced it, it is still the most wonderful thing that could happen to anyone.
