What would you do in the name of love? Would you give up everything you had, even your freedom, if it meant your true love would be safe from harm? Would you die for the one you love?
Yesterday I didn't write as much as I usually do. I had a thought of, "how will they get out of this one?" and wound up going to bed frustrated with my writer's block. This morning, however, I woke up and felt inspired. As I wrote, I began to wonder if I would've done the same thing that my heroine was doing.
Imagine you have the odds stacked against you. You're in a situation where the one you love will probably die a horrible death unless something is done. Deep inside you know that you can save them, but it'll require you to sacrifice a part of yourself in the process. Would you do it? What would you give?
The main character in Love In The Air, Sadie, finds that she's in just that kind of situation. The man she loves might die if she doesn't do something about it. Her bravery and conviction are something that I think too few people show these days. In a world full of selfish deeds, one traumatized teen is willing to do more than anyone would ever expect of her. How many of us can say the same?
It's just something to think about the next time you tell someone you love them. What lengths would you take to keep them safe?
Feel free to post your thoughts on this topic in the comments. I look forward to seeing what you have to say. :)
Just keep writing...
