It's such an important and yet difficult topic. Writing and thinking about love is difficult because it's so close to emotions. Politics, business, intellectual pursuits etc., they are not personal. The law of diffused responsibility works here. If we don't do anything about business, someone else will. Our mind tricks us by thinking that even if we don't do anything, nothing major will really happen. Hence, we can stay in confusion as long as we want. Even business leaders and politicians don't have the full right and wrong answers to everything. And when it goes wrong, there is always the history, the system, the situations to blame :)
Indeed, love seems hard because there would (usually) be a few individual human-beings to blame. So much is at stake in one's decisions of to love or to break, to be mad or to forgive, to say yes or no. Any changes would be so easy to feel, from our chats, our phone calls, our emails, to our everyday habits. While certain people can learn to be cynical of the government or give up hope in having better bosses so that they can stay happy since there's nothing can be done about it, most (young) people would not adopt the same attitude for their love. There's always something that can be done to make one feel better, happier, someone out there, who knows. In search of a sense of permanent happiness, one believes in temporariness - how ironic.
~~~ inspired after watching 500 Days of Summer w the best girl friend. I've been in both sides of the story. And don't want to be in either now :) Fantasizing and creating fantasy is... bad. Staying real, learning, truly caring and loving is cool =p
500 days of summer is awesome. That how my love story kinda began :)
