Love?

Ever fell in love?

I did once..

I think about it a lot.. all the time.. everytime..

I have analysed, re-analysed and have analysed again, what it is i had re-analysed..

And i have come to the one conclusion..

That you fall in love only once..

That feeling of absolute serendipity that you share with the universe.. The one moment that lasts forever..

There are some lucky enough to have it for the rest of their lives, and then there is the rest of us.. people such as myself.. Onlookers, always on the hunt, searching.. Almost reminds you of the last minute shopping rush for Christmas.. and you end up with.. well, nothing worthwhile..

Don't get me wrong here.. Love need not necessarily mean that you have to spend infinite number of hours with this special someone. It does not involve chocolates, roses or expensive restaurants..

Love, in my humble opinion, is that one look, that one kiss, that one smile.. It could a fleeting glimpse of someone in the park, or that complete stranger sitting across the room, maybe even a figment of your imagination (wierd), but the point is, Love is just that one moment.. The one moment that brings the world to a standstill..

The relationship..

So you had your moment.. You loved it.. You go out for coffee, a movie, err.. yahoo messenger, whatever works for you and you think there might be something there.. (guys.. i dont mean getting laid.. focus..) So you decide to find out more about each other..

Blah Blah Blah

The break up..

Where is this headed? What the hell was i thinking? Hes a bastard.. Shes a bitch.. So on and so forth..

That brings us to wonder.. Why is it that we waste, no let me rephrase that, Why is it that we 'invest' so much of our time in some thing that ultimately turns out more sour than my mom's infamous Lemon Soup?

Listen up, for here comes the concrete-ness of my theory..

The pursuit was in search of that one moment that made all the sense in the world.. For that one moment to be recreated.. All the searching, whining, dining and god knows what not involved is to bring back that one brief moment of absolute bliss..

But it does not.. Never has and never will..

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust..

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why i say that we only fall in love once..

Sad, but true.

So what can we do.. What has been done.. I dont know.. I dont have all the answers.. But just in case someone does find out.. Let me in on it.. I could use a tip or two..

Apologies to all you folks who had to read this terrible piece of prose. And for all you guys who NOW think i might be gay.. Fuck U.. I just got a bit too much time on my hands people..
