If you could see me now - Cecelia Ahern
Love can be the best thing ever or the worst thing ever. But what if love was right there in front of you and you just couldn't see it? *LOVE IS BLIND haha* I think we're might be influenced by movies and TV that it's a lot easier to establish a relationship by having a person fall for another person by looking at them and then doing something stupid rather than show the drawn out process of talking to one another, getting to know one another and then realizing you're in love with the other person. Some people might say that love is blind, but sometimes love at first sight can exist too, but more often in movies than in real life. Hmmmmmm.....think that love at first sight can be somewhat superficial.. *Smirk Face*
Well..well...well..I think there is "lust" at first sight, but not love. Love is something deeper then a simple glance. That is way too shallow for true love...THAT WAS ONLY MY OPINION... Don't take it serious & make it like a big issue & start to curse me for whatever your reason coz you might think differently la kay~ =)
Anyways..I'm not goin to elaborate MORE about LOVE..coz that is not my topic today...I've just done reading a book from Cecelia Ahern - If You Could See Me Now~ It made me cry & laugh BUT definitely worth the read! I just admire how did Cecelia puts the words together to give such a HUGE impact~ *especially on me* The story tell us a lot on how much people need friendship and love and it also tells us that love is not necessary to be together "you can love without see each other..as long as you can feel it"
