I was in my creative writing/contemporary fiction class Monday night, and I read a short story called "The Holy Night" which is about this 14 year old girl who loses her virginity to a 37 yr old man who is a serial killer who impregnates her and she has no idea because he lies about who he is and she becomes infatuated with him, and at the end of the story her and her friends are talking about what love is.


 One of the characters says, "Love is like a big piano coming down from a three story building and you're at the bottom waiting to catch it."


What does this mean to you??


I think of it as a big beautiful unexpected, fleeting emotion coming down on you and you don't know how hard its going to hit you .. like a feeling that overwhelms you or consumes you in its beauty.
