i was searching for something and i found this:
Love is the feeling that brings hapiness
And yet, the most painful feeling.
Love has the power to bring you to Heaven,
But in the end, it may send you to Hell.
Love is the purpose of life
And the reason of a dignified death.
Love is the reason of existence
And love is your greatest gift;
you greedy fool...


NOTE: the pronoun "you" is refering to all the human beings.

It is really a great piece.... thanks for sharing with all of us here!!

What is being said is nothing to do with the commercial principle of no risk no gain.

It is about true love, which whether attains fruition or not, continues to be the greatest bliss for the lover.... because even the apathy of the loved one does not change the feeling of true love the lover has for the loved one. It is almost a stand alone heavenly feeling that remains ever blissful for the true lover.

It is a simple prose representation of a long held theorem, to achieve the greatest reward one must attempt the greatest risk. This is not only about relationships. As an example, D-Day during World War II.
The allies had a foothold in Europe in Italy. However, the fighting was costly and the progression was slow. The Germans had long prepared the French coast line with fortifications to repel an invasion. The effort or willingness to put forth the effort entailed the assumption of a risk, at a high level. The reward was ultimate victory over the Fascists.
In terms of relationships, think of the time you first told someone that you liked them. The risk, rejection, ridicule, embarrassment. The reward, acceptance, reciprocation etc.

I think it clearly illustrates that one of our greatest gifts, love/sex, can end up being our greatest curse.

it's ok. it seems really really cliched, though. but if it's expanded and made into a song, then it might sound good. but the lyric would still be hackneyed, overused, cliched.
