Why should I fall in love?

so I asked myself, why should I fall in love when I was recently hurt by someone I truly loved....what's the point of it?
I asked that in a bulletin on myspace and got a GREAT response from one of my friends, and this is what he wrote: (I urge you guys to read this)

"Sweetie, being in love builds character. It tests our ability to commit to a purpose greater than ourselves. Being in love challenges our selflessness. Being in love helps define the meaning of life.

Oh Kimia,

Being in love, proves that all those things that you thought were important in your life, are mere post scripts to your total existence. You realize that it isn't what you receive in love, but what you give that matters.

If love cannot be unconditional, it CAN'T BE LOVE.


Good looks, sex, body candy etc...can NEVER stand the test of time. Love endures..it IS the very foundation of life.

Don't look for love, LOOK TO LOVE."


I loved what he told me and has helped me be a little more open to love
