Our inner hearts wish for true love to exist, and our minds know that compromise must happen, for nothing ever occurs perfectly. We especially gain nothing easily. A struggle is always involved. ...

Romance begins, grows, and then it fades. Or does it? Reincarnation suggests otherwise. Love holds permanence. Fading does not bring about an ending, but only a place for refocusing and reformulation and restrengthening to occur. Love only continues from where it left off; it rejuvenates.
