Maybe true love is like a good book that gives us the most joy from reading it little by little, giving us the most pleasure from savoring just enough pages everyday, leaving us with both curiosity and satisfaction, instead of draining all our energy by compelling us to devour it all at once.
Though, my favorite books are those I gobbled overnight.
But true love, I believe, should be contentment instead of an obsession. It should make us feel that we don't have to grab it with us all the time in order to experience it, that the pages, the journey, and not the ending, is what is most important. It should, with every new chapter, give us more understanding of things, from which when we take a break, challenges us to analyze and reflect on ourselves.
This good book that I'm currently reading gives me exactly that, and though after I finish it later I might forget the details of its every chapter - as always happens with every book I've read - I won't forget this lovely feeling from savoring its hundreds of precious pages for many nights.
