In reply to Eduoard Vernier. It is quite simple. True love is sacrificial.

Love is eternal, but here Shakespeare, like most others, mixes conjugal love with eternal love. While the former can be affected by external forces snd bend under pressure, true love; s eternal. It is best expressed in the hymn: PoorNamadam, poorNamidam, poorNat poorNamudachyate, PoorNasya poorNamadaya, poorNamevavashishyate: Which means everything is a wholeness, what is fragmented from wholeness is also complete in itself, wholeness is born out of wholeness and what remains is wholeness. Which means that is indestructible. That is true love, not what is base on attraction.

In reply to Eduoard Vernier. "The union of two people who love each other." I completely believe in the truth of that statement in regards both Shakespeare's sonnet and your comments. But A Love That Is Written In The Stars cannot be founded on Deceit. The Old Hollywood film Gaslight-which won Ingrid Bergman an Oscar-clearly shows what she thought love never really existed. Dated film or not, "Gaslighting" has entered the world vocabulary and is alive and well as a term even in the 21st Century

“The heart has reasons the mind knows nothing of”-Blaise Pascal.This sonnet is the finest piece of poetry ever written. No one will ever be able to accurately describe in scientific language Why a sunset is beautiful, or why your knees buckle and your heart melts when you hold your newborn infant in your arms for the first time. “Love” is the Most Abused Word in the English language-But Real Love-well, poets have been trying to pin down its wonder for thousands of years of recorded history-But None ever did it better than Shakespeare in this sonnet.

O, the absolute certainties of the artist’s verity – beyond any tenets in science. Shakespeare is so sure about the eternal quality of love that he bets his artistic reputation on it!

I believe that everyone finds their soulmate. Maybe not quickly, but by the time you are old and gray you most likely will no longer be a single woman or man. LOVE TO ALL. XOXO God Bless the USA!!!!!
