About This Quote
The idea that we can find love, joy, and happiness in one person is a myth. It is something that is spread by romantic novels and movies. A movie like “The Notebook” shows us how it is possible to find happiness with one person after they die. The couple in the movie are separated for decades, but still love each other deeply.
That’s not true at all! They are happy with each other because they were lucky enough to meet each other. Love does not last forever; it comes and goes every day. It is something that you need to keep working at all times.
