Love Needs No Reason

For a long time，I have been seeking an answer to this：What is love and what do people want to get from love？

　　Once I， together with several classmates， visited a teacher who enjoyed a perfect marriage. We just wanted to know the reason for their mutual affection. The teacher smiled and said："In fact， neither of us is perfect. It is love that brings us courage and determination to seek each other's perfection. But day by day， we were surprised to see the imperfect side. Consequently，we decided to stand out the crisis." I was so touched by his words. Although it was raining heavily outside when we left his home， I could not help feeling excited.

　　It was a wonderful experience， just like someone groping in the darkness suddenly catching sight of a light far away.

　　My parents have been sharing their time for two decades，but I never saw them quarrelling. Curious， I seized an opportunity to ask my mother. She was knitting a sweater at that moment while the rest of my family members were watching TV.When asked， she somehow flushed in the face. "Ask your Dad"，she said. I went to my father and raised the same question. To my surprise ， my father， who was always awesome， felt embarrassed and replied in the same way："ask your Mom."

　　The difference between the answers made by the teacher and my parents totally confused me. After entering the large gardennamed "love"， I was so amazed to discover that each flower was getting off her unique fragrance. I forgot what to do. I was lost.

　　Perhaps， love really needs no reason. How can you ask a cactus： "Why do you choose the desert rather than fertile land？"How can you ask a fig： "Why do you prefer bearing fruits to blooming？" How can you ask arose， "How can you enjoy such a calm life in the greenhouse？"…… What is known to us all is merely that once be loved， a cactus can bloom ever in a desert； a figcan bear fruits without blossoming； a rose can survive calmly anywhere. When love comes to you， nothing can be impossible.

　　Are you still familiar with these feelings？ You wake up at sunrise， you feel happy. You breathe the fresh air， you feel happy. You touch the lights sent by the sun， you feel happy. You walk on your way home， you see a sparrow， you wander in the garden…… Happiness follows you everywhere. And you know，all of these were just because a fascinating smile given by him/her.

　　Do you still remember your first lover？ We met， knew，liked， loved but at last broke up. We cannot forget the words，"I love you"， "I hate you" ， "forget me" and maybe someday"how are you？" ， "sorry"， "thank you". If God is kind enough to make you meet again， what will you say？ Perhaps only the simple words above. And I think we'll say nothing but smiling.We are so grateful for what time gets us to know Love needs no reason.

　　简 评

　　爱是什么？什么是爱？多少年来，痴男怨女上下求索，难得其解。这是一个谜一样的问题，这个问题永远没有标准答案。老师的经验不同于父母的，父母的经验又不同于我们的。所以每个人只好自己用心去体验。本文作者，一位刚入爱情圣殿的女同学，希望能找到幸福的真谛，文章写得不错，尤其是第四段中对父母的描写比较传神有趣：面对儿女关于爱情的提问，母亲面红耳赤；一向严肃的父亲也颇为尴尬。但是这位作者没有注意段落的衔接：第三段与第四段之间就缺少过渡。后面的部分语言较美，但思想的统一性有待加强。
