A lot of the literature we’ve been reading for class so far has had something to do with love. Many of the ideas or stories about love that we’ve read seem crazy or absurd but they are all different ways in which people try to express their love. Love is such a powerful thing and I think it can sometimes be scary or intimidating for us because it is so powerful and has such an impact on us. These stories and ideas we’ve heard about happen all the time, all around us and we’ve probably even experienced some of these reactions or some close to it. I think people just get so overwhelmed sometimes with this emotion of love. They know that they don’t want to lose it so oftentimes people will do some very crazy and desperate things in order to make it stay. The people in their lives and outsiders may look at them and ask why they do what they do and the person doing these things might even ask why. But they don’t have an answer. Love has the ability to overcome people and make them do some crazy things. There is so much destruction and darkness in this world and when someone encounters something that makes them happy and good they don’t want to let it go. They will usually fight to keep it even if it means doing some crazy and destructive things. I don’t believe everyone will go as far as some of the people in these stories go but I think we are all desperate to hold on. And some are more willing to fight for what they want; not always in a good way however.
