My grandfather always used to tell me, “Love, Loves Nobody.” I never quite knew what that meant. It was this three word mystery that only he knew. Almost like he was talking in code. He would say, “One day you will understand.” As I have grown older I have thought about that statement a lot. And I still don’t quite know what he means. Maybe he was saying just because you love someone, doesn’t always mean they will love you back. It could mean that falling in love with someone often has negative outcomes. Who knows? It is a very sad statement though. Tells quite a bit about a person and how they view the people they have loved in their life. I know now that “Love, Loves Nobody” has a different meaning for every person. As for me, I still don’t know if my grandfather’s saying is true. So far I would say no. Thank goodness.
