Statistical Love

By: Enjy Ashour

Statistics: a word that became associated with every aspect in life. It
became more of a life style, an obsession, which a lot of people rely
and depend on. Medical statistics, social statistics, economic
statistics…etc. It’s through these studies that we now measure and
assess our lives. I’ll tell you one thing though: statistics are
overrated, especially when it comes to love!

There is no such thing as “statistical love” for love is an indefinable,
abstract phenomenon that has infinite theories and works in mysterious
ways. It hits you when you least expect it and it changes your life in
ways you never thought possible. It connects you with people you never
thought of before and opens your eyes to those who will forever hold a
special place in your heart.

The way I see it, love is an inescapable, unexplainable inevitability.
It is unpredictable and no matter how hard you fight it, it will
overpower you. It is a bitter-sweet conquest of your whole being that
never abides by any of your rules, plans or defences.

Never fight love for it will always be a lost cause. Embrace it, accept
it, and let it lead you through its journey which could either be a
short or an everlasting one. When love prevails, equip yourself with
reason not fear, with trust not doubt, with positivity not rejection.
