My Life Lesson: 101
Someone once told me love isn’t everything. And I agreed.
What did I know of love and truth and light? I thought. Its all candyfloss and sunshine, for those couples at parks, fast gimmicks for Valentines Day, a cure for loneliness, those cheesy love songs on radio.. Its because I didn’t know love. I won’t say its something I know of, because you never really know whats hit you till you’re squashed flat on the ground, your heart beating faster than that generic pop song, and your head’s an absolute train wreck.
Nope. Love is an enigma. Its the reason so many songs are about love, its the reason we choose to write, sing and talk about it. Its our fascination. And its all around us, if we’d just stop to smell the roses (no pun intended). Love, is indescribable for me. It is a joie de vivre, it is a pulsating happiness, it can be a sad realization, a misty eyed goodbye.. it is the moment you realize everything is actually beautiful. The wrinkles, the odd twist in a smile, everything, is really, incredibly, beautiful. And yet, it saddens me at the same time. In the kind of way a movie based on real life would. Its bittersweet and tells you “This is life”. Love, for me, is like butterflies in the rain.
Its not understandable, but its beautiful.
What is it for you? :)
