Love is..

I got tis forward email not that long ago.. and I actually think it is meaningful and decided to post it here.

What is love to most of you?! untouchable? unreacheable? .. Some people feel that.. love meant forever.. and forever is always so so so far away.. I never promise forever.. because.. I have no idea where is forever.. and I so.. I'm unable to promise forever.. I cannnot predict things to last forever.. because.. I can not definite forever..

I remembered once .. National Geo. "definited" love biologically.. as a hormon in our body.. when you feel like you are in love, it is the hormon in your body that are doing the reaction of increased heartbeat .. blushed when you see this someone.. maybe the feeling of missing this someone too.. but the sad thing is.. this hormon will only last for about 2 year.. after that.. you might feel that.. you have less interest in this someone.. and that is when you start to feel that you are not so much in love in this someone? ? But why people still stay together even after 2 years? After you read this.. I seriously hope anyone of you will not use this "hormon issue thing" to be a reason to breakup with someone..When you are in love, you are supposed to build a relationship upon it.. to trust tis someone.. to care for this someone.. not because of this hormon issue.. but because you really wanna care for this someone.. intent to build a world.. build your world with this someone around.. and this is why this hormon for? What do you have to say for love?

The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife.

When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said,'Nothing, I just helped him cry'

... After reading all these, I know most people build love with promises.. but the truth is, promises do not last forever.. because we tend to forget what we have promised.. however, if you build love with care, honesty and most of all.. with your heart.. it might just be forever?!.. don't ask me when is forever.. you tell me.. how long is forever? and where is forever? ..
