But the “love” that you have , makes you ignore all the other “negative” aspects that others tell you aside, only to repent for it at a later time when you experience it. – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – “They are wrong who say that love is blind. On the contrary, nothing – not even the smallest detail – escapes the eyes; one sees everything in the loved one, notices everything; but melts it all into one flame with the great and simple: I love you.” – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – image copyright: [Faye White](http://www.pbase.com/fayewhite/image/67254848)
