I daydream about a "love story" and who's the person I'm bound to fall head over heels for. And I put these crazy standards and images in mind as to how he should talk & walk, how he should dress and laugh, and how he should treat me. Sometimes, I even daydream about his very enticing accent! And that's what us humans do to ensure a tranquility at the moments of the unknown. We imagine and plan. And you know what they say, " We plan and plan and Allah's the best of planners." I mean, after all, he is the one who wrote our story and is in control of it. But he forgives us for being so impulsive and so eager to know what the future holds in store for us. Therefore, he surprises us with the most unexpected person, at the most unexpected time, in the most unexpected place! That's love. It hits the heart without a warning. And that's what's enchanting about it- the element of surprise. You see, love erases all that we planned and it replaces it with an impeccable reality, which could be a conundrum to the limited understanding of the human brain. Which makes the neurons strenuously trying to make sense of it all. But, it doesn't have to make sense. It shouldn't make sense.
True love doesn't care about the standards and expectations you rendered over the years. True love doesn't care about the "perfect imperfections!" Truelove only cares about the now. It is what gets your adrenaline rushing in your bloodstream. And love loves how it makes your heart pound like it never did before; a special palpitation.
