i've been reading a lot of blog entries by youths in my agency's website, and many of them have been so deeply hurt in their relationships that they no longer believe in love. i think it's sad... love is such a beautiful feeling, how can there not be love??

i believe that love exists. true love definitely exists, because my parents have proven it to me. i think that's because we are too young to comprehend the true meaning of love, of which love is supposed to be UNCONDITIONAL. many have lost faith in it and hated their ex for saying 'i love u' and ended up breaking up with them and so on... but think it's because the word "love" has been overused. it's more like 'i like u, i adore u' but instead we replaced it with 'love', and we feel hurt when it really isn't love.

and when we say, 'i love him a lot a lot... but he doesn't do this... he doesn't make me happy....' aren't we guilty of misusing the word "love" too? we expect things in return. we expect the other party to be our definition of a "good bf/gf"... we don't love them unconditionally, and we only choose to love what benefits us. isn't this selfishness?

Love is patient, Love is kind,
It does not envy, it does not boast,
It is not proud, It is not rude,
It is not self-seeking,It is not easily angered,It keeps no record of wrongs,
Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.
Love always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres.
Love bears all things, believes all things,
hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never ends.

Corinthians 13 : 4 - 8

only when we can comprehend the above can we truly understand what love is, and how to love our partners. it's difficult, and it definitely takes time.
