Love is like English
By: Hensie Tumbagahan
The person I want to be with is he who reached out his hand to hold mine when I was in a scattered thoughts. The patience, understanding, and love that he offers are overwhelming, but they’re so relieving when I recieve them.
Love, just like English is a universal language. It has simple aspects, has syllables, word stresses, and has different parts of speech. It is challenging to learn how to form and structure the words to relate to one another.
Whether it is in writing, speaking, or listening we should be passionate about learning how to do it. If we are not, then it is so frustrating to earn a new language, and it’s better to stick in our comfortable and comprehensible first language.
Ah basta, LOVE is like ENGLISH – I’m willing to devote my time to discover its special characteristics.
