The irony of love

Met up for lunch with long time good friend last week. Had a long long chat... We talk about many things, and it led me to think about the word "LOVE".

Love can be ironic. Phones calls, words of concerns, hugs and touches are all so welcoming at the initial lovely dovey stage. However, as time goes by, these seemingly welcoming gestures may inturn becomes much of an irritation. How is that possible? Where has the feeling of love went to?

As the euphoria of love fades, couples need to work together to maintain a relationship. It is often taken for granted that love is self sustaining. Sad to say, it does not happen in reality. Love does not last naturally. Both parties have to nurture and grow their own fruit of labour.

Nurturing the love fruit is not easy. It takes time, patience, courage, communication and alot more to nourish it. It is often easier to choose the easy way out i.e. escaping and ignoring. It is definitely not the wisest choice but many are falling prey to it.

Hope all is well for you, my good friend
