L.O.V.E

Lust
Obsession
Vex
and finally... Extermination?

Is that all love is about?

Just read about the topic of 'love' in the 'Conversation between youth' from Daisaku Ikeda..
I really love a few quotes being shown there, I will just translate it into English, because that book is in Chinese..

'Treat love as a type of wine, nurture it within you, and develop yourself into someone that he/she would admire someday.'

'When you are in love, you don't look into each others' eyes, instead, both of you look at the same direction together.'

'If you treat marriage and love as two different things, then you are being very unfair to your partner.'
(I personally think that this is something that MOST of us don't even consider to ponder upon!)

'You don't mould yourself into someone else just to fit in into a relationship, that's plain pathetic!'

Anyway, just have the sudden impulse to post this, no its not an indication that I'm desperate for a partner. Its just that the youth nowadays don't really appreciate love as what it is. It is supposed to be something really bahagia[I forgot the English word for this] and should be appreciated greatly!
But youth nowadays just wanna have couple because it is the trend to do so. Otherwise, they are just plain curious and attempt to have a taste on the forbidden fruit.. Just to satisfy their earthly carnal desire, that's what I see and that's what degrading the value of love nowadays. Making the matter worse, girls don't really seem to mind it! Well, some la, those girls who don't cherish their own life and have no idea on how valuable it is to have a reputable name..

It is foolish to go couple, just because other people around you started to do so and you just wanna follow the trend!

So, yeah, I shall wait for my fate, and in the mean time, develop myself into a better man, for my future, and for my future partner =)
