A friend of mine posted this on Myspace, and I really liked what she said...I already am writing a response to her, but I wanted to see if any of you wanted to share your opinion on this...
Isnt it odd that we all go through life just wanting some one to love us, its so simple yet we cry and rage because this thing called love, which is said to exist is rare. Its on rare occasion that this so called love creeps up on you steals your heart and momentarily makes everything ok. Love is so curious in that we all strive for it, look for our mate and yet in process go through ruthefull hardships and long foes. I sometimes wonder where is that some one, that one person that is supposed to make or break the world, that one person that is light inside each and everyone of us, will he find me, or will the journey of life tear me so far down that I get lost in the search of it. Love, it breaks my heart. yet at the same time I smile when its sitting at my front door. So do i let him in? or do I move on, slam the door and lock it? you tell me.
I'll post my opinion/response behind the cut, so you can churn on it without seeing my thoughts...
Ah, you have found one of the few great mysteries in life...I don't claim to be a world-reknowned thinker on this issue, but you did challenge your readers to respond, so here I go...
I think love only really makes it's presence known after you have been loved. It's like an addiction that way...you have a little taste, and you just want more when it goes away. Especially coming from me, this may sound weird, but that "high" you get when you are in love, when you are loved, outweighs all the bad things going on in the world at the time...it's just you, and the love. But like a high, when you crash, you crash hard. It leaves you empty and hurting. The question you have to ask yourself is, does the high you get from being in love outweigh the pain, the withdrawl, from being out of love? I for one can tell you that I enjoy the high much better...plus, who knows...maybe, someday, you will run into the person who gives you that high forever...and that will truly be a state of peace, a state of bliss, that cannot be generated by all the money and power and fame that is on this earth.
