Ever wonder why we tend to love the persons most whom have put us thru the widest array of emotions? How is it that we can still smile upon a visions of happier days shared even after multiple heartbreaks. Why is it that we tend to push aside the feelings of betrayal, shouts of vicious words and always remember the mending of our hearts? What is it about love that we seek out so desperately? How do we know for sure when it's really "the real thing". Everyone comes with their own faults each as different as the next person standing beside us. How much fault is too much, does it depend on each individual or is there an unspoken rule about it all? If so, where do find this master set of rules. Does it lie within each of us just waiting for discovery. Marriage is something that seems to be taken so lightly. What would make any sane person decide to enter such an agreement. Guess, the thought is hopefully you'll beat the odds and still be together when you're old and gray. I'm not so sure there are too many people left that truely believe this anymore. Is it real love when two or three years later they still always opens your car door and you still shiver every time the two of you touch? What about when after that amount of time you still get butterflies in their presence? On the other hand should it even matter that no one can still bring you too your knees in tears like that person?
I've pondered these thoughts over and over lately not necessarily because it applies to me personally but because I always see it all around me. Sometimes knowing that the one we love the most could also hurt more than our enemies is enough to make us want to run in fear. Everyone seems to answer life's questions with, follow your heart but sometimes your head holds the most rationale choice. For the sake of seeking that perfect love we tend to follow our heart, then blame our head for making the mistake. Most times we even say "I knew it all along", well if we knew it all along Why the hell did we do it in the first place! One answer: We tend to love those who put us thru the widest array of emotions most. We as human beings will suffer enormous emotional pain.... all for the pursuit of love
