What's Deserved Always Gets Served
I feel like ranting
So tell me, how long does it take for someone you thought of as "the love of your life", to become "your greatest mistake"?

It saddens me to know that I'm in a generation that tosses words with such strong meanings such as "love" or "hate" around as if it were a small rubber ball.
It saddens me more knowing that I was once that way, telling every girl I felt a hint of feeling for that I loved them, when truly, I still don't completely know what the word truly means. Nobody knows the true meaning of such words, even though they claim that that is the feeling they have for a particular person. With that, I beg to differ on most situations.

Wanting to be around someone as much as you possibly can does not mean you are in love with that person; it merely means that you really enjoy their company. Or it may mean that you are attracted to them, which, might I add, is not love. Attraction to one's body is lust, not love, my friend.

Claiming that you are willing to die for someone does not mean you love that person, it just means that you are a fool who believes that they willing to toss the one thing that should mean the most to them away in order to extend another's life. In many cases, those people have never been put in the situation in which they had to defend another's life, so they have absolutely no right to claim that they would, and if they were, well, they wouldn't be alive to claim it now, would they? Anyone can do that, it doesn't matter whether or not you know the person. Sorry to say, it does not mean you are in love with that person.

Only in certain cases both of those together may possibly mean that you could love that person in particular, but it doesn't always mean that.

If by reading this, you think I don't believe in this feeling, I'd have to say you are horribly mistaken. I believe that everyone has the potential of falling in love, but they need to stop thinking that it's "true love" every time they're in a relationship.

I have nothing more to say at the moment. If you have taken the time to read all of this, I thank you.
I do not expect you to agree with me, though.

There is much truth in what is said here, sai. I believe that you can have any number and limitless combinations of emotions for someone; all feelings can coexist under the right series of events. You can both love someone uncondtionally with every fibre of your being, and yet posses a deep, deep hatred for them. You can love the person and your memory, but hate them at the same time. Equal or opposite, yin or yang, it matters not. It is the circumstances and disconnect between the parts of you mind that feel that way that makes it possible. From the brightest light to the blackest darkness, all are and can be seen and felt at the same time, in the same mind. Many of us take this variety for granted, and put our focus towards a single end. Life exists towards the end result of harmony, and a Death exists to balance it by destroying that which is made. But the end result is interesting. Life evolves, while Death does not, and so life can find means to escape Death's clutches, thus resulting in life's triumph over death.
Keep this in mind. It will help you on life's journey.
