(175) Love at first sight? i have a theory for this. there are three types of people:
a. people who genuinely fell in love at first sight or people who believe in it
b. people who didn't fall in love at first sight, but who claim they did b/c it's just so romantic
c. people who don't believe in love at first sight
We must define what "love at first sight" is, firstly. There are some that say they took one look at their man or woman and knew immediately, "Okay. They're the one." I think that is the definition of love at first sight, and that few people actually have that happen to them, as romantic and publicized by movies as it may seem. Then again, that's just a theory. I've thought about this a lot.
(176) Yin and Yang (that good can't exist without the bad)? no, because i don't believe there is any bad in heaven, nor any good in hell.
