love

is there such thing as a perfect love? i have no idea. what is your idea of a perfect love? 

when I was young and naive and innocent, I thought perfect love was when two people are happy with each other, contend with the presence of one another in each other's lives, no fighting. just love, and more love. 

recently, I have discovered that love is not all those things. it's not always happy. it's not always rainbows and butterflies and chocolates and comfy pillows and warm nights. love is more than that. love is, everything. if love is everything, maybe the idea of the perfect love does exist. but how many of us can say that we have the perfect love in our lives nowadays?

not many. seriously, not a lot.

love isn't perfect at all. it has flaws, it has weaknesses, it has pain, it has hurt, it has sorrow. love is hard. love is difficult and complex. love involves fights and arguments and giving up. but for those who believes in the idea of the perfect love, they accept these facts about love. 

love is universal. for many, love is beautiful. for some, love is horrifying. for some, it is easy to fall in love. for some it is even harder to get out of one.

love isn't always sunshine. love is cloudy and rainy too. 

love is life. 

I believe in my opinion, that love is imperfect because if love is perfect, everything in this world will be fine. love is imperfect. but there is a way to repair this imperfectness,

when two people begin to appreciate each other and acknowledge the flaws they have and yet willing to make the best out of whatever love they have, I think that's where the idea of perfect love comes from. when two individuals who appear to be so wrong for each other, can turn out to be perfect for each other.

p.s: i love you. and i hope you're reading this. i'm sorry.
