Why Love Someone?
Any thoughts? But, let us not focus our attention on this; but rather, lets try to understand what does love means. This complicated yet beautiful feeling is hardly defined well and never mutually agreed. All of you might have your own definition on this word ‘Love’, but try reading this little quote from the movie ‘Captain Corelli’s Mandolin’ starred by Nicholas Cage and Penelope Cruz. It might change the way you look at Love again.
This is a piece of advice from Cruz’s father, when she found herself lost in a love triangle.
“When you fall in love, it is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake, and then it subsides. And when it subsides, you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots are become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the desire to mate every second of the day. It is not lying awake at night imagining that he is kissing every part of your body…. For that is just being in love; which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over, when being in love has burned away…”
- (Dr. Iannis-John Hurt) -
Beautiful, just beautiful….
