An idea is what binds a person together. Let's look at it this way, when we fall in love with a person, do we love that person only physically, or is it just because s/he is just too funny? or is it for his/her good grades, good looks or a caring attitude? If we look closely, we will find, above all these cute little attributes, there is something else which binds all those qualities inside that person together...for some it's their moral character, for some it's an objective in life, for some it's respect, and there are many others. When we learn to accept and love that 'something' which makes that person 'special' to us, we fall for them. But this, has another aspect too. There are numerous people around us who possess the same qualities, the same set of attributes...but what they lack is that binding potential, which makes them complete. That's the reason they remain being a possession of a set of attributes, not something more than that, for which one can call them a real human being. For them, the rest of the world is a place to fit in. What is optimistic, is for people like us, the world is a place to fall in.

ReplyDeleteThere is something that makes you madly love someone. The feeling is overpowering. You accept all flaws of the one you love... sometimes even those that you wouldn't normally accept in other people. that is love.
by the way you have very nice thoughts.
