Butterflies and Roses
During my alone time yesterday I was thinking about a love quote that I read recently that said that no love story ever ends happily ever after, and I couldn't agree more with it.
You see, when going into something, we can only agree that it is always wise to think about the good and the bad side of that thing, unfortunately we don't always do that when talking about love because we always want to focus on just the good side of it.
But in reality, if you really sit down and give it a thought, you'd realize that in as much as falling inlove is probably one of the best feeling in this world, it is probably the most risky thing that we will do because love makes us vulnerable and very easy to get hurt.
When you fall in love, you open a part of your heart to someone that no one should really get access to in other to protect yourself. But love makes us do dumb things and we find ourselves not caring about these things, so we do it anyway, and most times than we would like to admit, we end up regretting our choices and wishing we never fell in love in the first place.
The day I saw my dad cry for the first time, was during my mom's burial. I know for a fact that his love story didn't have an happy ending.
Look, love can be beautiful, that's true...but we also have to admit that something can be beautiful and still dangerous at the same time... It's almost like eating the delicious forbidden fruit.
Unfortunately, the opposite of not being in love is a life of loneliness, and most people would rather pick temporary happiness, even if there's a high possibility of them getting hurt along the way, rather than that of being alone. Love is basically the lesser of two evils, although some people do get lucky and end up with the "right one"..
The only sad thing though is like I said, no love story has an happy ending because at the end, something tragic is always going to happen, which in most cases is death.
But hey, don't let my sad self stop you from falling in love because if there's one thing I know, even though death is inevitable, spending any amount of time with the right person is always worth it, no matter how little that time spent was.
All I'm just saying is that don't go into that stuff thinking it's all roses and butterflies everywhere.
It is worth loving, even for a moment. Months ago I lost my nephew and I felt that love cannot do everything. For example, it cannot save from death. But then I thought that I had the joy of loving my nephew for 18 years and being happy by his side. 18 years seemed like an instant to me, but that instant was wonderful. Greetings
Yeah that's true. I acknowledged that at the end of the post, saying that every moment spent with the people we love is worth it. I guess I was just being sad 😊.
