Love is...

...a double bladed sword, don't you think?

Watched the movie, "Dark Shadows" in the noon, together with colleagues and the special one. It's in my movie list since few weeks ago, after I watched its trailer. It was not as interesting as expected. But still it was a really nice movie, for me. :)

Barnabas, a womanizer who was cursed to be a vampire and locked in stone coffin for almost 200 years. Came alive when some unfortunate workers accidentally free him from the box. He then met his true love, who once have died centuries ago, and fall for her again. But their love was cursed and that include Barnabas's family. His niece became a warewolf, his nephew became an orphan without his beloved mother, and they've lost their home and family business.

It's the revenge from Angelique, a witch who loves Barnabas so much, that she could do anything to own him. But as Barnabas said, she was cursed too, without her notice. She was cursed that she couldn't fall in love. Living as an immortal but has no soul. She is so strong and bitter, yet she is a fragile woman with a heart as fragile as her body, that even a single touch might break it easily.

What's love and where's love? True love made Josette/Victoria to became a vampire for Barnabas, but true love also turned Angelique into a bitter woman, who live in vengence and hatred. Love brought sweetness and bitterness at the same time. It's heart-warming when love is in the air, but it's painful when love has gone and turned into hatred.

People said for every I hate you spoken, there's love behind. Because only the equal amount of love could generate a greater or equal amount of hatred. As for each bit of hatred came from the love and affection that you once had.

The family love bond Barnabas and his family together, they backed each other up when trouble hits either one of them. Blood is always thicker than water, and that's what to bond a family together, and family will always be the greatest fortune.

Love isn't perfect, but still it does exist. It's a double bladed sword, but we are the one who decide whether to use it against us or others, aren't we?

So, Live life with love... and Cheers for that there's still love...  :)
