Preamble
As Teresa of Calcutta once said: “People lack love much more than bread, and this hunger is the strongest hunger”.
But at the same time we are afraid to love, because love makes us vulnerable and defenceless.
We are afraid to be rejected, to feel the pain, to have our hearts broken.
In the era of lives on display in social networks, we want to be successful at any cost.
Our greatest fear is to fail, so we disguise ourselves in the clothes of success and upload photos of artificial celebrations of life on our pages with nothing but emptiness behind them.
It’s so easy to pretend to be strong and have a meaningful life online while hiding behind a beautiful mask.
Love, however, is always about your soul being open and even naked. Love brings pain and pleasure all at the same time.
It’s like flying in the clouds, when you can’t see where you’re going and don’t know where the wind will take you.
You can either go to heaven, or fall back down to earth. Even the clouds themselves come in different kinds. There are thunderclouds, cirrus clouds and heap clouds.
Some of them are softer than feathers, other are heavy and leaden.
And they can, like a tornado, sweep away everything that’s in their path. Everyone has his own love and his cloud.
In our times, the whole world is entangled in the global web of the Internet, which, like a huge cloud of chaos, gives birth to many things.
Some of them unite and divide people at the same time. However, in the same chaos, in the same cloud, like Aphrodite from the foam, love is born.
This online love can connect people from the most remote parts of the world. It connects people of different races, religions, cultures and ages.
A few decades ago these people would have never been able to communicate and wouldn’t even know about each other, and now they chat, cheer, suffer, wait and love together.
Moreover, that love is absolutely real. It’s the same as before, it’s as old as the world, and at the same time, it’s brand new! And most importantly, it’s true love!
After all, it doesn’t matter where it’s born, online or in real life, it will always remain the jewel of human life.
