You cant turn love on and off like a light switch no matter how hard you try. All you can do is wall it off one brick at a time until youve created an impenetrable fortress around your emotions. And once that fortress is built you camouflage it so well that even you cant see it anymore.
Have you ever noticed how when youre happy time seems to pass by fast while when youre miserable it goes real slow Life would have been a blink with you whether it lasted a millennium or a month.
