Love is...

"I wonder why love is so often equated with joy when it is everything else as well," Florida Scott-Maxwell said, "Devastation, balm, obsession, granting, recovering excessive value, and losing it again. It is recognition, often of what you are not but might be. It sears and it heals. It is beyond pity and above law. It can seem like the truth." (the emphasis mine)

I have no idea who Florida Scott-Maxwell is but s/he(?) opened-up my eyes a whole lot. It is like that verse in the bible that gets read at weddings... Love is patient. Love is kind... yadiya which I still have memorized because me and Oboy turned it into a song in 3rd year high school.

Next time I catch myself falling in love, I'm ready for EVERYTHING. I use to only want the 'fuuuuuun' things. Love hurts a lot pala.

So this is what embracing responsibility is like huh?

Darn this growing up thing. HAHA.

love, life
