Is this even a question worth pondering about? Somehow I get this feeling that society or most people seem to think that love is a destination; you find someone suitable, you date, you tie the knot and thats the end goal. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;But isn't love more like a journey? The happy moments, the disappointments, the euphoria and the cuts and bruises along the way. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Save every memory, good or bad. Savor the experiences in your life. At the end of the day that is really all you have. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5186946-3165272251948460839?l=thejamesblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thejamesblog.blogspot.com/feeds/3165272251948460839/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5186946&amp;postID=3165272251948460839' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5186946/posts/default/3165272251948460839'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5186946/posts/default/3165272251948460839'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thejamesblog.blogspot.com/2008/11/is-love-journey-or-destination.html' title='Is love a journey or a destination?'/><author><name>JK</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00933688334473976506</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5186946.post-6653339430546717719</id><published>2008-11-18T23:38:00.003+08:00</published><updated>2008-11-18T23:47:21.607+08:00</updated><title type='text'>First day at the job</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Today marks a slightly nervous first day in my new job.
