“…Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or Bends with the remover to remove.
O, no! It is an ever-fixed mark,
That looks on tempests and is never shaken.
It is the star to every wandering bark,
whose worth’s unknown, although his height be taken.”
– William Shakespeare

i’ve just typed out a long comment. but it got ‘lost’ when i tried to submit. =( lemme try to recap..

havent been reading your blog for a looong time till i stumbled by this evening. i must say that i really enjoyed reading ur posts on love, life and leadership! most of what you say resonates in me and im really impressed at your style of writing; summing complexities and observations so seamlessly with such simple and elegant language. the topics that u write about brings out the warmth and fuzziness in me, yet not too ‘girly’. keep this blog going, yeah?

with regards to the topic, i’d say, i’ve fallen in love twice in my life, but i still do not have a “definition for love”. what a paradox to be able to “diagnose” and identify the presence of “love” yet not being able to define it… totally unacceptable way of “diagnosis” in my line of work (and urs too :p).

anyhow, i stand by my ‘mantra’ that – love is not to be defined, seen, heard, or thought, but to be felt by the heart… we still love that special someone regardless of all the hurtful words and puzzling actions we dish out to him/her.. you think?

as for marriage, i certainly hope i can marry The One that i feel so right about. and not marry just becos the time is right or for loyalty or for any other reasons other than love
