TOEFL essay: Love Expression

[Sendoh Phan]

When children grow up and become mature, they have their own feeling about “Love”. In my experience, there are three kinds of love: love at first sight, true love and blind love.

Firstly, love at first sight occurs randomly between two people that they have not known before. On a nice day, they have just looked casually to each other in classroom, coffee shop, cinema, and they fall in love immediately. In fact, it is really fantastic feeling! For example, I tell you about a story related to my relative. My uncle found half part of his heart in his English class. He said to me that he liked her face, her voice and especially her eyes. We could not explain how it had happened because she liked my uncle too. They had the same happy feeling when they first talked together. After that, they learned English better and two years later, they wanted to live and get married. But sometimes you have to spend for a long time to see and find person who loves you honestly. In addition, it sometimes makes you fall in love and you cannot focus on doing your job. But I do not like this kind of love. I want to focus on my study. But my uncle's story will be good experience for me.

Secondly, true love occurs between two honest people. They have a deep love and they usually get married after their graduation. Most of them spend their childhood together. But the important thing is that they would not break up even though unexpected things could happen to them. My father found his invaluable spiritual friendship, his wife, is my mother now. My parents spent their childhood together when they were in Da Lat. They also have wonderful time for studying, working. However, when my father moved to Sai Gon for his job, he stayed away from my mother. But they proved the statement “far from eye far from heart” doesn’t mean anymore. It took 5 years and they have still loved up to now. That’s why I admired my parents. I think true love is important for everyone very much. In another story, there are two students who love brightly each other. They now are attending medicine and pharmacy school. The boy has cancer and he couldn’t continue to study. The girl went for the doctor and cured him. At first, she has got to endure for the long time and she also has to work very hard. Her friend advised her to abandon him. But she didn’t give up. After two-year treatments, he could study again to become a doctor. This is a true story I’ve heard. They and my parents set some good examples for me. I really idolize them. I think when I have a good job, I will try to find my girlfriend and spend with her most of problem that we encountered.

Finally, I want to mention about “blind love”. It occurs when someone doesn’t love honestly, they just take advantages on you. It also isn’t good for you because you will be charged a lot of money. It hurts your soul as well. Teenagers are patients of this kind of love. I have heard a story about lady who was in rich family. She was studying at high school. She is natural lady. She was flirted by an artful boy. He had charged her lots of money. After cheating, he left her. But she was deeply in love. It was a heart-rending story. She couldn’t study after bad event. Nowadays, many sad stories like those are getting more popular. I think it’s very risky for young ladies. They can’t escape their passions. I do not like artful people. I think we should keep a distance to a person who we meet at first time. In addition, we should not believe them too fast. It is useful for young ladies to avoid blind love. If I have friends in this situation, I will advise them to do right ways.

In short, I think true love is the most important for people. You should not be deeply in love with someone. Someday you find your lover by casual look; it is also wonderful experience for you. Love is important, but when you have job with high salary, you can have lots of lovers. But I am not sure they love you honestly. I am going to study hard and find someone who likes to study with me too.
