falling in love
06.24.04 (6:41 am) [edit]
i came to a realisation just not long ago...
falling in love connotates helplessness...it's e 'it's not my fault wat! i FELL in love...when u fall...u can't stop e fall halfway!!' attitude...it connotates e loss of rationality...tt's when u say love is mad...love is blind...it is e shirking of responsibility...saying tt it's not ur fault tt u fell for him...even if u are not supposed to...or if it's e wrong HIM to fall for...'it's coz love is blind'...Falling in Love means tt u cldn't help it............
So by and by...e phrase 'But i fell in love.......' becomes an excuse...too convenient an excuse perhaps...excuses u from moral blame...excuses u from e pain tt u cause others and urself....u can use it as a passport to happiness...but it can also be a one-way st down to hell...but u noe wat........it's a LIE!! Love can be a decision too...it's up to u whether u WANT to make it...u can CHOOSE not to love. u can choose to run away. u can choose to forget. u can choose to look at e big picture...or u can just choose to live in tt self-contained world of urs...whereby e greatest misfortune tt can befall u is e end of ur r/s..................
Perhaps...one day...u will have e maturity to see that love can be a decision...i too hope tt one day...i will have enuf maturity and willpower to make these decisions...i'm still taking my baby steps in this...but i'm sure tt i can make it one day~~

I like your analysis if that phraise. Too true that we have control over our emotions. Makes me want to investigate all the other "idioms" maybe(I don't know the right word right now) that make you seem helpless over your thoughts and feelings.

hope that's not too fruity for a guy, i think it looks cool
