Is true love really blind?

by Hanna Joseff

Created on: May 07, 2010

True love doesn't have a pair of eyes to see.  It doesn't look at color, age and origin or descendants.  Many people have claimed to say that love is inevitable and unexplainable.  True love is indeed blind.  Take a look around and see that there is love everywhere.  There are many tales of couples whom have been through the thick and the thin and most of them live to tell about their love journey and experiences. 

The kind of love whereby there are sacrifices and at the same time, adding on to the notion that love is blind.  Blind in a way because sometimes others fail to see why the love is to be so.

It certainly takes one to know one, therefore those whom have gone through a true love process will duly agree that indeed the love shared is blind.  However, in certain forms of society, especially when talking about the time during our great grandparents, being in love with the one your heart chooses can be hard. 

There may tend to be disapproval from parents and even in some situations, in social ranks too.  Here's a simple outlook.  A rich man's daughter during those olden times falls in love with a poor man and her parents disapprove of the relationship because of social standing. 

However, true love is blind and it doesn't see social classes and etc.  Hence, the saying that love also hurts may form when two people like that couldn't end up being married. 

The saying that true love is blind may also be used in this modern times but in a negative aspect.  For instance, an old rich man chooses a young lady as his wife and rumors have it that the lady is just after the old man's money.  But in actual fact, the young lady has fallen deep in love with the old man, a true love which is blind, but failing others to see. 

There can also be another situation whereby another rich man thinks that the young lady he's loving is totally into him, but only to be disappointed because she's just after his money.

We sometimes tend to say things that are within our sub-conscious mind.  What we perceive and what is in true reality might be totally different.  That's why it's very important to think things through before labeling the next person you see walking down the road as being a gold-digger or anything negative at all.  For it is true that true love is blind.  Take a moment to think.
