on love and the continental drift theory

"Continental drift refers to the movement of the Earth's continents relative to each other. "

I attended a seminar last night and the topic of love and commitment surfaced. One of the other trainees said something to the effect that if the continents can actually move away from each other when it was all one massive piece of land, who are we to say that two people who are in love will never separate.

We laughed coz the analogy was crazy but at the same time, it hits a chord. When something as big and strong as a land mass known as the earth splilts into 7 continents, what guarantees do we have that this little thing called love can survive the natural disasters that will come? Temptations, distance, work, issues ... petty things even.

Can you tell me if there are any?

  1. Land masses break. Love is flexible. :)

  2. you can promise anyone the moon & the stars... you can even promise him or her forever... but how would you know that? the only thing certain is what's happening now... that's what's real... that's what's sure... coz that's what's happening... all you have to do is react... and pray that your actions would lead you to the moon, to the stars & forever...
