There's a wedding today, and yay for the happy couple, but is love worth the trouble? They, and other couples, seem to trade good for an obscene amount of bad and I have to wonder, why bother? Good is good but the misery that accompanies seems contradictory to the entire point of love, happiness, Most couples I know spend a good amount of time in misery although I know they would charecterize it the total package of love. I would not.
Would not the procurement of happiness from another source other than love perhaps not be a wiser and more logical idea? Is not the purpose of life to maximize happiness while minimizing misery? One cannot be happy if they cannot see. The old cliche "Love is blind," is taken to mean that we love who we love, regardless of compatibility. What this cliche really means is that love blinds the person, NOT that love transcends and unites two different souls in happiness. Any thing that blinds a person should be looked at as suspect.
