Love on the first sight

You were going to church one afternoon and you saw the most breathtaking creature of exquisite beauty approaching you from up ahead. Let us put ourselves in the place of a boy. The moment he saw her, his breath stopped. Time seemed to standstill and everything around her stood upright with their heads bowed as she passes by. His eyes glued on the tenderness of her body as she approached him in even strides. It was Christmas Eve and she was on her way to church. Her body radiated from the evening sun and she glowed with great beauty. Wow! Am I seeing an angel sent from heaven above? He thought to himself. He can’t help it but kept on looking at her as she closes in. He was spellbound and could not move an inch. She was the most gorgeous of things god has ever created. The thought of her charming face and her crystal blue eyes troubled him a lot. He can’t eat well and has trouble sleeping. The love he has for her was so intense. That’s love on the first sight.

Wherever, it might be, be it a church, a school or a market place, it was there that you met someone you thought to be the love of your life.

From the example above, both of you accidently bumped into each other one morning in church. She laughed and smiled at you and you did the same. Then, on every Sunday you go to church and became a faithful Christian. Funny, it was not the reason but to see her every Sunday because she worships in the same church. Soon you give excuses to hang around her place. She saw you and did the same.

Before long you started seeing a lot of each other and become more than just friends. Both of you are love birds. It was maybe in your fifth or sixth grade. As the years wear on two of you started making plans like finishing school, get a paid job, get married, have a family and live a happy life. How romantic it would be. You always picture her in your dreams and she did the same. The love you have for each other is so intense that you would not let anything come in between you two.

The heart breaking moment came when two of you were selected to continue in separate high schools. Before you two part ways, you met and promised to write to each other or call each other. Both of you were so in love that despite the distance between you two, love you have for each other is so strong.

After twelfth grade, both of you graduated and were selected again to different institutions. Both of you can’t help it but promised to be faithful to each other until the time is right. However, later, you found out that things turned out to be against the great deal of plans you made in your youthful days. She goes around with another guy. The love you have for her was washed down the drain and left a hole in your heart. It hurts so much that you don’t even wanted to see her again or have anything to do with her. You burn everything that reminds you of her and promise yourself never to love another woman again. It was then that you recall your father’s words; love on the first sight can be deceitful.

This is just a scenario of being loved on the first sight. If you are a male or female reading this post, it might be different for you. Yours can have a different ending as well. How funny love can be. It drives people mad and they do crazy things.
