Love is one of things in our life.If we have love , we will understand the feelins about it and our life. From love, we can see ourselves in different ways. I want to tell a love story about myself. When I was eighteen years old, I went to a welfare house. There were some old people , among them, someone were stay in bed all day,they could not move. someone got mental disease, they cried or shouted in the house and yard. Only a few people were healthy, because their children were so busy that they could not take care of them.I did washing there, and talked with them, sometimes I was afraid of the person who had a mental disorder. Actually, I love there. I hope they were healthy and happy. After one month, I left for university.When they knew I would leave, they cried, and I cried.I think it is love. This love moved me and hurt me. It let me see the poor person. I think love is not only to fall in love with a boy or a girl, but to love our parents and others.

This is a long and interesting subject. I don't know how I'm going to explain it, but I will make it short and sweet. Basically, you fall in love with a person and they are all that matters in your life. The longer you're attached with this person, stronger the bond gets and the more your rely on this person to get you through life. Soon, the purpose of your life will be to be with this person. That's how much you love them, so much that you'd want to be with them. You need them, life is pointless without them. It's pointless for gosh sake. Then when they break up, that's the worst part. Because all that bonding, all those things I mentioned above are the issue. Your life becomes pointless, not worth living. I know people who even went as far as made sacrifices for those who they love. They spend a lot of time, money, and even sacrifice their ultimate job in order to be with the one they love... ...and they break up....I'd lose my mind, it would ache like a head-ache.

it hurts only when your trust is broken.. the people that can hurt you most are the people who you trust most..because you expect that they only have the best intentions for you.. and if they fail you.. of course, you will feel pain..

People do fall in love mainly because we are born to love. When we fall in love we tend to give everything without reservation. So when there will be misunderstandings and conflicts we end up being hurt. But it's just alright, what's important is we love than never to have love at all.

Love aches cause that's what it's meant to do. It so happen's that whomever i like turns out to be either taken or not interested. There is one incident which i cant get out of my mind so i given hope for looking for it, maybe someone will find me for instance. According to me love and hurt come in one package, you cant get one and not expect other.

Hey if you want to be part of life, you have to accept the fact that these feelings will come your way, and many times for that matter. You should never regret of having theses feelings because the ability to love someone else is a fulfilling feeling. Getting hurt is always messy and downright depressing but it will only make you love harder the next time. So lets make a toast to 'love and heartaches' for it will be knocking our front door soon. Cheers!
