The right place for love

I was too young when I saw Solyaris by Andrei Tarkovsky; but I clearly remember movie's claim that earth is not the right place for love. Love deteriorates faster on earth than any where where else! Lovers are stuck with daily life and tend to hurt each other far too often! Tarkovsky says one needs to leave earth to learn to love.

Singapore is truly not the right place for love; people are too tired and too busy making money! I felt this when I was in Istanbul just two days back. In Istanbul love is in the air! I felt it in every single creature, even sun was playing a love affair with shadows, light angle was romantic in morning and dusk. Here is Singapore sun has a task to accomplish; it sets out with a fast pace early morning; in the evening sun is too tired of a full day's work, when shadows start to play around with the romantic light of sunset, sun has no energy to respond and sets down in haste to take some rest for the coming day. Even sun is more productive in Singapore...
