1st Reflection



Love

Love is a natural feeling that comes from deep in your heart. It is the strongest feeling from others, because of love, people becomes crazy. They said love is blind, and yes it is. Love can makes people blind, blind here means they did not see what is not perfect on their lovers, they will see she or he is perfect on their eyes, always perfect. Love needs two people trusting each other, if they did not have a faith on each other, they will not last for long. Moreover, love did not know age, height, etc. They will do anything for their loved one, even if the're far from each other, he or she is willingly cross over the sea just to meet her or him. Yes, this proves that love can makes people crazy, but the worst part is, when they were broke up, it leaves a deep scar in your heart. Because, you never knew this day will come, and you thought that you will live happily with her or him, but it is not write it right as you thought. So, my advice is, even if you love him or her that much as the total of the stars in the sky, leave some of your curiosity for him or her. Because, if that day come, you will not that frustrated, because you know she or he isn't the right person for you.
