A warm fuzzy feeling in the heart and a sense of excitement can easily pass as love. In every relation we search for love...at home with family or at school with friends, we are looking for loving relations. We have eternally searched for that perfect relation in the name of love.
Every relationship has its ups and then the downs. Often the downs may seem to stay longer. Our eternal longing unanswered, we may ask is 'happily ever after' true only in fairytale. But the quest for a perfect relationship continues unfettered.
