love.
"To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket--safe, dark, motionless, airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. The alternative to tragedy, or at least to the risk of tragedy, is damnation. The only place outside Heaven where you can be perfectly safe from all the dangers and perturbations of love is Hell."

Some other things I learned:
They say you can't help it when you 'fall in love' with a person, but I can definitely stop myself from letting it get to that point (actually, I really beg to differ but my current situation, being the sick kid that I am right now, won't allow me to formulate any sensible points)
Love involves the collapse of ego borders
The heart is most deceitful especially when you're drained and lonely
No one is 'perfect' until you fall in love with them
Hmm, at least I'm actually getting something from my Th131 class yeah?
