happily never after
Besides my undying love for the rain, I also somehow enjoy writing in the middle of the night, say 4a.m. So here goes...
It's a pretty absurd discovery I made. I was only surprised why I hadn't seen it in that light before. It's general principle that Love is the basic ingredient for two person to be together. What's ridiculous is that Love can also be the reason for two person NOT to be together. I'm not talking about those who choose to stay away from their beloved for the benefit of the other party. Yes, it's true human tend to be in way above their head or narcissistic to entertain themselves with acts and thoughts of being the generous one to let another person go in the name of love, if by that act it'd bring that person closer to their perceived happiness. We give it a grand name too, 'Sacrifice'. However, the case in question is nothing like this.
What perplexes me is how two people can be tied with Love, yet choosing to let go, not in the name of Sacrifice, but for something else. How can Love be the binding factor for some, but the breaking factor for others? I don't understand. Girl meets boy, both fell in love, both need each other, but instead of being together, they separated because they want to preserve that chemistry that sparked affection in them in the very first place. It doesn't seem to make sense, yet it appears highly plausible and it does happen. People part ways out of Love, too.
Maybe they're afraid of what's ahead. Maybe they knew better. Maybe they're just not strong enough. I wouldn't say they give up Love. They just want it so much more than others that they halt at Love itself.
(I realize the above article makes absolutely no sense, even to to the author herself. I have the idea, but my words are not doing it any justice... Maybe I need to catch up on my sleep.)
