Vincent
Van Gogh once compared love to a lighted lamp. He was quoted as saying,
“Love is something eternal. The aspect may change, but not the
essence. There is the same difference in a person before and after he is
in love as there is in an unlighted lamp and one that is burning. The
lamp was there and it was a good lamp, but now it is shedding light,
too, and that is its real function.” For the past few weeks our readers have been sending in stories of how they met the “love of their life”. We have shared some of those stories with you in this issue. As you read the stories you will certainly agree with the words of Vincent Van Gogh. The feelings expressed by the writers clearly show that their “lamp of life” was lit once they met their loved one. The Vision Paper wishes to express sincere gratitude to all people who submitted their stories. We do not have enough room for everyone in this issue, but we will make every attempt to publish all of them during the next couple of months. |
