people say, "you only have three loves in your life." the first one is puppy love, where it's all sweet, dreamy, and idealistic. it is the love that looks right. the second one is hard love, where it will teach us all kinds of things. this love hurts so that we would know what we wanted and what we needed. it is unhealthy, but we want it to thrive. it is the love we wished were right. and finally, the love that is forever, where it will be there for the rest of your life, and probably more than the end of it. this love is the right love, at the right time, with the right person. it is the love that lasts, the love that feels right. and i think i finally found my third love: shawn derek chua.
