Sunshine after the rain...=)
It still amazes me how powerful human emotions can be. It can override all your senses and rational thinking. Scary how one human being can be so attached to another. Despite the impossibility, despite the suffering, one soul still searches relentlessly for the other...even to find mere emptiness and despair. Yet it is such a beautiful thing...a strange little thing called love? Is it?
I have seen too many broken hearts and unrequited love, and I'm sure we all go through it sometime in our lives. It is such a frustrating and stupid thing though. As outsiders, how often do we want to slap those out of their misery and tell them to move on with life. Yet we know that's in vain...
I often wonder, is it because they enjoy that melancholic feeling and just choose to dwell in their sorrows? Because I can understand that, I always think sadness is a beautiful, romantic thing...but not prolonged of course.
Then there's those who have fallen for each other and are unable to let go. If you know that things arn't going to work out in the end and there are endless obstacles, do you still pursue the relationship? Or is love really sufficient to overcome all adversities?
It seems like the best way or only way to move on is to find someone else and replace old memories with the new. This may seem very low but is it any better to dwell in self-pity and sleepless nights? I don't have an answer. But sadly enough, for some, past emotions and wounds will never be healed... |
