“Love is a temporary madness, it erupts like volcanoes and then subsides. And when it subsides, you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion, it is not the desire to mate every second minute of the day, it is not lying awake at night imagining that he is kissing every cranny of your body. No, don’t blush, I am telling you some truths. That is just being “in love”, which any fool can do. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident.”
— Louis de Bernières

p/s Nobody ever comments, but I guess I shouldn't be complaining, since in some aspects I guess it's a lot better that way.
I want to know though, if you are reader, gimme your thoughts on what you think 'Love' is. I'd love to know.
p/p/s Also, HAPPY MERDEKA MALAYSIA! :) I am not a patriotic person, but I'm pretty sure they're partying a storm in Malaysia :)
HEHEHE. I don't know why I started off with that, but, love is..
ReplyDelete..not cheating on each other even though you have the chance to. It is caring about each other when they are far away, through little gestures such as "how's your day?" and not sex all day long.
Love is a routine, for me, sometimes, one that I'm comfortable in :P
:D probly not the best description but what I think lar :D
ReplyDeleteLove is to be there for them when they need you, to listen to their problems, to be patient with them when they are PMS-y, to make them laugh even though they're mad at you, to stay up and talk to them even though you are tired as hell and to love their flaws even though they annoy the hell out of you ;)
Love is many things and it's most wonderful feeling in the world. You may feel happiness, sadness, madness and insecurity at times, but it is all worth it :)
