I was in a religious discussion tonight and someone said to me that if all that holds a person is fear, eventually you will overcome your fear. But true love lasts forever. That got me thinking....
It's been said that fear is the flip side of the coin of love. Is that true? If it is, is that why people stay in abusive relationships with the excuse of "but I love him"? Could it be true that they really didn't love him but were, in fact, afraid of him? Or afraid of being alone? Or afraid of starting over? Or afraid of their life changing? Or afraid of the unknown?
And does true love really last forever? Haven't we all loved someone in the past and then it died? Does that mean that it wasn't true love? Couldn't it be possible that it was true love and time and circumstances made it so that the love died?
Hmmmm...food for thought I guess.
