22. 1 week ago

We cannot live unaffected by love.
We are the most alive when we find it,
and the most devastated when we lose it.
Most empty when we give up on it,
most inhumane when we betray it
and most passionate when we pursue it.
The human story seems driven by the insanity of the pursuit of love.
