Plain & Simple.
Question: What is the most beautiful thing in the world to you?
Unrequited love. As odd as it sounds for it to be the most beautiful thing in the world to me, I feel it each and every single day. I see it in all of the j-dramas that manage to make me cry. I hear it in every beautiful acoustic song I ever have liked. It’s always someone chasing the other, and that person chasing someone else, or not being able to tell that person how you feel because you’re terrified of how they’ll take it. It’s a terrible thing, but at the same time it’s incredibly beautiful. To know you would go through hell and back for even the tiniest smile from that person, even if they don’t feel the same… To know you cross his or her mind when you get caught looking at them, or when you timidly say hi to them. They think something. And even though it’s entirely hopeless and you know it, you smile, and you feel like the luckiest person on earth because for that brief second, for even just one moment in the day, they acknowledged your prescence. You’re not just a shadow anymore, you’re someone. And that feeling is one of the most beautiful things, though granted, mutual love would be a million times better.
