VEDA Day 2 - Love At First Sight

Hello happy little people, 

Do you believe in love at first sight? 

I do.

But not in the way that most people imagine that phrase to mean. I believe that when you first meet someone, they might just be another person. You neither love or hate them they're just another human being that happens to be present. And it's when you start to get to know someone that you really start to see them. 

When you start to learn all their little quirks and individualities. When you can see the corners of their mouth crinkle when they smile. The way their eyes shine in the sun. When their voice no matter how loud, quiet, soft or rugged is the only way you want to hear things. Where their feckles are and how they like their tea. The way they laugh and sneeze and fall asleep. 

But it's never just physical things that make you fall in love. Sure having an attractive face or a built body or having desireable features (respective to whatever you find attractive) is helpful, but a pretty face won't keep your heart warm on those cold nights alone. 

That's what's in the inside. The way they know exactly what to say to make you feel better when you're down. When you think the same thing because of similar interests. Or even the way they listen and stare as you talk about things you love just because they want to know. When they remember what you said weeks ago. If even if you could never pay them back, they are generous not just with money, but their time, effort, happiness and even their heart. Because let me tell you I know how hard it is to share your heart and open it for someone else to see. And when someone respects, forgives, trusts and encourages your heart, that's what makes it all worth it. 

But there's still that one moment. It maybe doesn't happen at once. Maybe it takes weeks, months, years even till you realise what's happened. But when you realise that you're truly seeing them, you're seeing them for the first time. And if in that first time you see that you love their personality and who they are, as a friend or a partner, you click. And you fall in love at first sight. 

And once that has happened they become beautiful. Even if they were attractive before, now they are gorgeous in every way you could imagine. And their personality shines through them, brightening them and illuminating all their features until nothing could ever be better. 

I believe in love at first sight.

Do you?
