Valentine's Day just passed and it made me remember a middle school student I know who may be in love.
I think there are two ideas of middle school "love". One is temptation: Girls dress beautifully and act giggly.
Boys are popular and attractive.
Then there is the other kind: attraction that may or may not be love. The student I know is like that. She
has a friend called John whom she has feelings for, but she can't decide if it's love or friendship. In her words:
"I wonder whether he is my ideal boyfriend. I want someone cool and kind who holds the same values as
me. He isn't any of these. So sometimes I wonder if I'm only attracted and deciding to break up with him now.
But he is attractive, and he isn't foolish. He may not be an "A" student, but he's intelligent and clever. I wonder
if I only pity him for the hard times he has had. He knows how to make me laugh. We both sing and act. We
had several classes together last year. He can be very sweet."
I'm moved by this because it's hard to find a student who has such real thoughts. It seems that
everyone thinks only of how "hot" someone is, without acting more wisely.
For some people, Valentine's Day might mean nothing. But for others, it could mean a lot. What about you,
young man?
