Emotions are for Fools

Yes thats what I think now. The more you get emotional about someone, the more you are hurt. The only place where you should have emotions are for parents. They're the only people whose love is unconditional. Rest of the world is on the lookout to take advantage of your emotions. You get emotional at office place and you are doomed. You get emotional for someone you love and they take you for granted. That brings me to love. Another recipe to hurt yourself. Reminds me of a quote which I read

"We fall in love when our imagination projects nonexistent perfection upon another person. One day, the fantasy evaporates and with it, love dies."-- Spanish philosopher Jose Ortega y Gasset

I always thought this was so such a stupid thing to say. How can someone degrade love to such an extent. But probably the philosopher is right. Love does you no good.

Its better not to fall in love or to get emotional for someone.

It hurts badly but doesn't give us enough reason for not to seek that illusory perfection or a mirror in another person.
We can segregate it as love for parents, for friends, for the partner, for children but at the end it is always an investment so it shakes us badly.
Till there is life, let there be love and the undying faith in love!
