Some people fall in love easily.
Right person.
Right moment.
Right feeling.
Others try carefully,
think carefully,
and still get hurt.
What would an ossan think about love?
Ossan’s answer
An ossan doesn’t believe love
is something you “win”.
Love is exposure
meeting vulnerability.
And sometimes,
vulnerability shows up
when the other person is not there anymore.
An ossan accepts this quietly.
He doesn’t blame love.
He doesn’t worship it.
He allows himself
to stand where love could happen.
That’s all.
Love cannot be secured.
But openness can.
An ossan learns this late:
The loneliest people
are not the ones who were left.
They are the ones
who stopped feeling.
Love notices presence.
Even when nothing else does.
