Falling in Love - Essay Example

Falling in love is the most beautiful experience of life that singularly lifts you to an unimaginable height of happiness and also takes you to the depth of anguish and pain of separation. I experienced my first love when I was sixteen and dying to fall in love with my best friend who was always mooning about his love and doing crazy things. And one day I met my love, the center of my world. It was a Hollywood-style meeting when I was hurrying out with a perfume bottle and I collided with a handsome dude who was doodling over some books. The bottle went hurtling across the books and the whole environment turned onto the fragrant bloom of soft rose. I was looking at the most beautiful crescent blue eyes with long fringed eyelashes. My whole world had come tumbling down with dazzling stars!

‘Are you okay?’ He had enquired in a deep husky concern that had sent a shiver of excitement down my spine. I was dumbstruck and could only nod. I could feel my world going round and round. I was staring and then a little coughing woke me up from my stance. The guy was smiling and offered his hand. I took his hand and stood up. I could not look into his eyes for I was still very embarrassed at being caught staring in such a public place! He gently pushed me towards the perfume section and before I could protest, he had bought two bottles of the Chanel 5, one having the smell of fragrance as the one which was smashed into thousand pieces and the other one which I had wanted but could not afford. He then took me for a cup of coffee and I can still remember how the hours had flown. It was mutual love at first sight.

Falling in love is total magic because it completely changes you and makes you feel at the top of the world. You find the things to rejoice in the weirdest of situations and cry at the drop of a hat. It seems as if nature rejoices in your happiness and lets you discover things about yourself that you were never aware of. Indeed, I did not know that I could become a book lover but then I had not met the love of my life! It is funny but I had become a highly cheerful and optimistic person from the shy individual who would always be looking at the gloomiest aspect of things. I wonder if other people also discover a whole new world of good things when they fall in love.

My love had also become my soul mate.  He told me much later that he had also experienced the same magical moments and had loved my silence with the same passion as he had loved my voice which he found to be very soothing. He was quite stressed out that fateful day and our meeting had lifted him out of his depressing thoughts. I think that is true love. Yes, indeed, it is true love because we are still passionately in love and making plans for a blissful future.
