To love is to see an imperfect person perfectly; to see not a single flaw. These are perhaps lines from the past that are influenced by the works of late writers who try to give love a meaning similar to how love is defined in the bible. These philosophies of love would somehow end in a tragic way. As what we are, we have become romantic investors. We never lend a single without asking something in return. Love, nowadays, is like running a business of you own. You need to sacrifice things of your in order to satisfy yourself at the end. We have been like practical businessmen, minimize outcome and maximize income. It is hard to see nowadays an image of the late martyrs of the past, to see those who love unselfishly and never expect something in return. It is now hard to find the similarities of what love is expected to be and from what love is practically.But what really is love? Is it barely human blindness to not see the crookedness of his or her companion or just plainly suicidal sacrifices for his or her companion? Is love like a charity act or a banking institute? As human beings, we tend to believe different philosophies. Some are transcendent of the late martyrs and some are those who seem to realize the awful truth of being a martyr. Some are living romantic investors and some live a life that would end in tragedy. Love as what they say has so many meanings, meanings that came from different influences of hearts who either lived in tragedy or lived in luxury. Experiences of the past are the roots of why love is defined nowadays. Perhaps experience is the best teacher.
