εїз What about our stories?

- "I have found almost everything ever written about love to be true.
Shakespeare said, "Journeys end in lovers meeting."
Oh, what an extraordinary thought!
Personally, I have not experienced anything remotely close to that, but I'm more than willing to beleive Shakespeare had.
I suppose I think about love more than anyone really should.
I'm constantlly amazed by it's sheer power to alter and define our lives.
And was Shakespeare who also said, "love is blind."
Now that is something I know to be true.
For some, quite inexplicably, love fades.
For others, love ir simply lost.
But then, of course, love can also be found, even if just for a night.
And then there's another kind of love, the cruellest kind, the one that almost kills its victims.
It's called unrequited love.
Of that, I am an expert.
Most love stories are about people who fall in love with each other, but what about the rest of us?
What about our stories? Those of us who fall in love alone.
We are the victims of the one-sided affair.
We are the cursed of the loved ones.
We are the unloved ones, the walking wounded, the handicapped without the advantage of a great parking space..."

Fala inicial do filme "The Holiday" (O Amor Não Tira Férias)*.

*Super indico esse filme. Muito bom! Divertido, sensível, alegre... e com certeza da pra se identificar com alguma das personagens.
Da pra rir e chorar.
Recomento Muito! Ta na lista dos meus preferidos.
Só não gosto desse título em português. Aff!
