The Greatest Freefall of Life

Ever tried Freefalling? As in skydiving?
I liken falling in love with someone to that. Imagine:

You're on the plane with whatever you need strapped to you. Your spare chute, perhaps even a tandem - your freefall instructor. Your spare chute being life's experiences. Freefall instructor being your close friends who'll always catch you when you fall.

It's almost time to jump off that plane. Your heart's thumping, adrenalin pumping, knees wobbling. You try to keep a clear head but there's the crippling fear & almost unfathomable excitement. There's a lump in your throat & the feeling is just indescribable. - Isn't this also how someone describes time spent with their beloved?

And so you jump off that plane - it's a choice. You choose to jump off the deep end, throwing your entire life into that chute - the freefall or the love chute.
And so you fall... fall... fall ...

You either land safely or you crash and burn. =)

And there you have it: The Greatest Freefall of Life: Love.
