Story Another Love
November 30th 2008 17:13
The most popular thing to write about is love in the form of a story. Why not? Hearing that there is a chance to connect with another person on such a grand level for everyone, creates happiness in sharing this time together. From Bogart and Bergman to Kidman and Jackman, through humor and holidays, to despair and war, the tale of love endures. The way that most of these stories play out is with the introduction of two characters together or apart. The individual story on either side is told for understanding and empathy, for the two leading characters. Then there comes a setting that brings the two's first meeting that seems extraordinary, but rings true only for the other main characters and not for the witnesses that encounter this normality. The encounter upon being retold is artfully embellished for dramatic affect and the love develops for each party. Some instances of encounter are of opposites, some are of commonality, some seem of common interest and an outside factor infect a constructive or destructive quality. In love stories, there develops a duality or a multi-faceted idea that brings lookers-on into the event and makes the story worth telling. The culmination of interaction between the two can end in separation, and that theme may be where the story ends for postulation of possible love or continues into fantasy. These stories do the expected, but require phenomenal circumstances of climax for the tale to show worth. Most commonly, the extreme circumstance that brings the two together for love is war, at least presently. Stories of love develop through Roman times, Medieval times, the french revolution, World Wars, minor conflicts, and extraordinary torture. True to life love stories give way to inventing a love story that may not be true, but becomes the wish of the listener to hear the end. The love story has so far worked it's way in a timeless manner, and let's hope that it continues in this manner for the sake of great love and storytellers everywhere.
