The first time i heard this word was in the title of the movie "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind". Then i looked up the meaning, it means infinite duration or everlasting and ever since it kinda grew up on me ever since. Its one of my favorite words. The reason i am writing about it now is because the word came up in the novel i am reading, The Eclipse (Book 3 of the Twilight Saga). In one of the chapters, the authors describes about the relationship between vampires couple as being eternal.
Unlike any other great love stories such as Romeo and Juliet or Catherine and Heathcliff or Laila and Majnu or Devdas and Parvati, the term eternal love has a more literal meaning, because vampires never die, their love for each other is truly eternal. If was really touching. It made me remember the time when i found out that the one whom i cared about, the whom i thought was my best friend and may be more had a group named "Eternal" on her buddy list and i was not on it.
Anyway, i felt like writing about it and so i did. Like most of my blogs, i wrote this one in a rush and it would seem pointless to most of you.
