It’s been long we discussed love, the last time we discussed love it was 2 weeks back if you by chance missed the discus, you can read about it here, it was a very interactive session and we got the differing opinion of the steemitverse.
Today, another very interesting topic just popped up, ‘should you die for love’? a lot of ideas are already going through your mind, right? As usual, I would give my candid opinion (remember it’s my opinion and I have a right to air my view, after all, it’s a free world).
I don’t think I can die for love! No matter the depth of love. If there was an extra life like the Mario game, I would have a rethink, who knows (lol).
I read the book ‘Romeo and Juliet back then in secondary school, (I can’t remember if it was fiction or not), but I remember Romeo dying for love, Myth also has it that the legendary st valentine died for love. I remember watching Titanic about a decade ago with Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet starred in the 1997 movie- that was the last time I saw a guy die for love. If you were not born by then, let me give you a summary.
Titanic is an epic romance film written by James Cameron about an unsinkable ship (RMS Titanic). It was a love story between Leonardo DiCaprio (who was jack Dawson) and Kate Winslet (Rose DeWitt Bukater). Jack fell in love at first sight with rose despite being betrothed to her fiancé (Caledon Hockley). Because of this, he boarded the Titanic just to be closer to the love of his life despite being from a lower social stratum. Caledon hated jack because of this, and he planted an expensive jewel in Jack's pocket to make it look as if he stole it. Jack was locked up by the security personnel
Titanic hit an iceberg and began to sink, and all women and children were evacuated from the ship via smaller boats. Rose went on to release jack from the cell and they were unfortunate to have only one floating door that could contain one person to remain afloat. Jack had to be a gentleman and hang on in the freezing ice while rose remains afloat. Jack eventually died before help came.
I remember shedding a tear when I watched the movie, it was so touching.
Women also die for love, lots of women have perished because of love, many commit suicide, some are abused to death, others murdered and even raped by their ‘soul mate’. The myth also has it that Cleopatra died for love. Even Joan of Arc died for the love of her country.
I happened to witness a near-death experience in the name of love.
Lady z is an epitome of beauty, an average 5 foot dark skinned buxom lady who would leave heads almost turning in an anticlockwise direction when she passes you, her lean frame would almost earn itself a lustily desired sandwich, her beauty was shy of stellar. Lady Z was dating a banker who happened to be my neighbor, we knew when the good was good and the going was bad. One fateful day, I sighted lady Z from afar; Mr. Banker had just gone to see off a friend and did not go with his main phone. On his return, Lady Z was laying in her pool of blood with Mr. Bankers text message opened. She had slit her wrist with a razor blade and was bleeding from her radial artery. She was in shock, I was summoned and I had to arrest the bleeding before taking her to the nearest hospital for proper care and management.
It’s cool to fall in love remember i taught you how to fall in love, love is obviously a beautiful thing, but we need to know the limits of love because Love also has its ethics.
Sucide is the second leading cause of death in people between the ages of 15-40. Everybody’s going to die someday, but I don’t think love should fasten yours. Learn how to keep your emotions in check.
