Romance is a life choice, a true to life story, no doubt usually full of exaggeration or fanciful invention. But that is why it is so powerful. Romance captures the imagination. It is a romantic spirit, sentiment, emotion or desire, a true to life fable if you will. A story or event that is too amazing to be true and thus cannot be real, but something only dreamed of. Women are romantics; they dream of a fable and pray it real. But.. the bills do come in, the debts do need to be paid off, works still happens, dinner needs to be cooked, and there might not be flowers, or candle light, champagne, or chocolates but those aren't the necessities of romance.

Romance is a look, it is a soft touch, it is a smile after a long days work. To some it can even look like diet coke, spaghetti and the TV. To others it can look like going to work everyday and paying the bills to support the family. To others it can look like cooking a meal. Flowers, candlelight, champagne and chocolate are nice treats but real romance is a life choice to love proactively.
