Since I can remember, I would dream of being a beautiful princess living in a perfect kingdom with a loving princess . Every night before I went to sleep my parents would read me a bed time story and most of these stories would talk about the unbreakable love between a couple. One night, I asked my parents what love was, their respond produced the same goose bumps as those when I read the description Pangloss gave about love. “ .. love, the comforter of humanity, the preserver of the universe, the soul of all living beings; tender love! ”. (pg. 29) I believed that everyone had the opportunity to feel love once in a lifetime, that feeling that could cause you to smile for no reason or make you feel protected. However, I believed that it was only when you reached your twenties that you had the privilege of feeling this emotion. Nevertheless, I was proven wrong; love can be experienced at any age. I recently celebrated my one-year anniversary with my boyfriend. When asked what I feel for him, the only word that can correctly describe the numerous feelings that gather in my mind is the word love. It’s an extremely powerful emotion, one might kill for it or even die for it; as Juliet did in Shakespeare´s “Romeo and Juliet”.
I agree with you Manuela, love can be felt at any age. It's a feeling that everyone has and nobody you be ashamed to express it. We all deal with love, maybe not in the form of a relationship with your girlfriend/boyfriend, but with your parents and friends. I believe that there's no point in living if there is no love. After all, love is the biggest comforter that can help you pass through difficult times.
