It is sad because we wonder where all the love has gone to, and why they stay together after all these years if the love is really gone. However, when they reach the beach, as they stood side by side gazing at the vastness of it all, the wife hugs her husband&#8217;s arm and rests her head against him in heartwarming silence. <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">What a paradoxically accurate portrayal of commonplace worldly love!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Sometimes,<br \/>\nhow much aversion we have towards someone<br \/>\nis a hint of<br \/>\nhow much attachment we have towards someone.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes,<br \/>\nthere is no clear line<br \/>\ndividing<br \/>\nattachment and aversion.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes,<br \/>\nwe love our loves,<br \/>\nand other times,<br \/>\nwe hate our loves.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes,<br \/>\nwe call this a love-hate relationship.<br \/>\nYet it is from this that we will learn to truly love,<br \/>\nto truly rise above attachment and aversion.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related Article:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>How to Fall in Love in the City of Love<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/moonpointer.com\/index.php?itemid=1649\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/moonpointer.com\/index.php?itemid=1649<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In one of the stories within the movie &#8216;New York, I Love You&#8217;, we see a very old couple bickering&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[26],"tags":[75,108,146,274],"class_list":["post-4975","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-movies","tag-attachment","tag-aversion","tag-paradox","tag-true-love","wpcat-26-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/moonpointer.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4975","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/moonpointer.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/moonpointer.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/moonpointer.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/moonpointer.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4975"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/moonpointer.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4975\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/moonpointer.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4975"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/moonpointer.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4975"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/moonpointer.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4975"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
