Here's a shard of my mirror... Hope it helps.

Ever since i can remember, i've always been, as they say, "Questing for love." in a manner of speaking. The whole idea of Hopeless(ly) Romantic would very well define my human existence...before. I've always been a student of Love so to speak and i've never believed in waiting around for it to come, simply because i couldn't wait for it because i needed it in my life more than anything. While some people dream of being rich or being famous, thinking thoughts about the future, clothes, bags, accesories, travelling, cars, gadgets, money, big toys in a nutshell, i've always been fascinated by the idea of being "in-love". I used to get jealous of people who had partners...i'd observe and wonder from a distance how they'd laugh, smile and enjoy mostly each other's company, how they'd happily enjoy each other's moments with each other. It was a different feeling i got from seeing people who were weren't like them, young couples, middle-aged couples, old couples, weird couples, going-to-be couples, queer couples, confused couples, couples gone-wrong, i've seen them all and they all had the same outlook on life. Their eyes are different when you talk to some of them. they'd mention how much they fight and quarrel and mention the irritating habits and some of the most dastardly things some of them would do to each other. As evil as it sounded and as much as they strongly stood by the idea that it was not worth it, i got even more curious. people don't seem to see the little details these people emit when you listen to them talk. They'd say all these really good things, and all these really bad things that occur in their relationship with their partner, but noone observes that change they undergo in the process of them talking about it. It's beautiful i tell you. Such a marvel that i cannot believe noone sees what i see. they animate so much love for themselves that they don't see themselves forming new habits, new ideas, new ways of expressing themselves, new actions. its very different from people who go through new experiences with travelling to other areas, or meeting new people, learning new skills and even not doing anything. You can see it in anybody whether you've known them for so long or just met them, you can always tell when you see someone who is "in-love". Whether the guy is an Asshole, or the girl is a bitch, their partner who stays with them emits an aura of growth, and if you listen to them, you can see these little wonders happening around them. You can feel their passion to be better people and literally sense the fire burning in their words even with the least subtlety. If only i could share this joy with others, empathy wouldn't be as hard as people imagine it to be.
