to have loved and lost or to never love at all

Hallway conversations in high school are often narrow minded and cut down to the seven minutes of passing time in between classes. With a quick hello and a fast goodbye many conversations never really sufice to anything and are often repeats of something stated before.

Being a person who can get along with pretty much anyone and talk about almost everything certain conversations get my mind thinking and make me wonder how i would have things in my life. And how certain things affect those around me. Today that conversation started when a friend of mine told me that her and her boyfriend had broken up that morning. Now these two high school seniors weren't your stereotypical high school fling they had been together since freshman year, and had spent many high school memories together, so my thought of the day is, is it truly better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all?

Personally, i think yes i would have rather loved someone for however long i loved them than to have never loved anyone at all. Simply because love is the only emotion that can make us happy, angry, crazy, and pathetic all at once. Love is a feeling that can make one do the impossible. Weither it be love toward a family member or love to significant other. I look at it this way some of the most nortourius people in our history have loved dolf Hitler loved his mistress for many years, and married her right before he committed suicide because he said he would rather be loved by one and hated by many because he had felt the greatest feeling of all time. Some of the greatest minds have been driven mad over a feeling of love for someone. And many can accomplish things they never thought possible in the name of love.

So yes to loving and loosing because at the end of it all is fair in love and war, and just because your heart is broken doesn't mean that your life is over. LIfe involves risks and one of the greatest risks is to give your heart to someone and to trust them with your everything! Loving and loosing it all or never learning the true feeling of greatness...ill leave that choice to you.
