Young and free. Those are the times the most love is amazing. It happens especially when love is just new. You don’t need to think of anything to pressure the mind. No obligations and responsibilities. Also, happiness is very simple at that time and that is to be with the person you love. There’s more, love is what makes you feel alive.
Months or even years being together. The love is still there, however, the sweetness is not the same as yesterday. Without a doubt, the love doesn’t fade, although it is not as submissive as before. No more public display of affection because you’d fill the feelings of one another at home or when together in a quiet place. Then you understood that there’s no need for other people to learn about your relationship. In short, the longer you’ll be in a relationship you want it to be private in the public.
Being married or maybe live-in together in a house. You realize that love is normal, it’s like a main dish of us Filipinos, the boiled rice. Nothing seems special but yes, the meal is not perfect without it. Or maybe it’s better to compare it with the fresh water we drink from time to time. There’s nothing special but we need it if we want to keep on living. It seems ironic but actually, it’s the truth. A little bit harsh to your partner is how you see love when spending longer with her/him.
It’s not unfair I think, because being faithful and being honest is what matters the most. Sadly, the sweetness of love can only happen once in a blue moon but it doesn’t mean you’re not thinking of making her happy. It’s just that, earning money or maybe thinking how to have a better life in the future is what is always on my mind. Simply because you’re just thinking ahead of time. You want to live in peace when you grow older together. Peace means you don’t need to worry about how to put food on the table. That time living together longer is the most ideal life you’d want.

ABOUT ME
Paul was born in Macrohon, Southern Leyte but currently living in Cahayag, San Francisco Southern Leyte. He graduated the course of a BS Mar-E or Bachelor of Science in Marine Engineering in 2019. Although writing is his passion so instead of sailing he decided on writing.
He writes occasionally about random stuff he would see in the outside world. He loves to express what he feels through writing because he's not good at speaking personally.
He also writes fictional stories and emotions because he thinks life matters. He is hoping that his words could reach someone who might be feeling down.
Join me and support me through my adventures not just to the world but also to the human minds not to hate being alive.
