I watched The Break Up yesterday. Did not quite like it because it was boring. But it does show correctly how important communications is, especially for a relationship.
Very often we go into a relationship and people cannot understand why. So the most common reason would be "love is blind". That's just the easiest answer and also no other further questions need to be entertained about the relationship.
Why then "love is blind"?
Because that is precisely how it is when you are in love. You are blind to all the things that you do not want to see and notice the smallest details about what you like in a person. You think the person is funny, even if not. You think the person is cute, even if not. You think the person just knows everything you need to know, even if the person is not super knowledgeable. Love is blind to faults, shortcomings, tempers, blah blah blah. As Josh Groban puts it, "In My Eyes You Do No Wrong"...
There is nothing wrong with love being blind. I think it is good. But I do not think that is all. There are many other virtues associated with love. Love goes beyond being blind. It gives the additional strength and energy to want to do more. Do more for the sake of yourself, for the sake of the other and most important, for the sake of both. It is active, not passive. If both see it and understand it, then the walk together begins.
So what then is LOVE????!!!!!!
Love is YOU.
(For everything else, there's Mastercard.)

Hey man! i'm sorry but i disagree. wahahaha!! you must be thinking wot's new right? Love is a choice you make. You can go through the good, the bad and even the ugly with someone.. at the end of the day, do you still choose to love that person still? we're definitely not blind to the good the bad and the ugly.
