SO poetic

@Rain: you're so hung up with shakespeare's story. Its a STORY. Not meant to be taken literally ie compared to real life.

Think about it. Put yourself in that man's shoes 50 years back. Would you be willing to leave your family+friends and civilization for the honest sake of one women? Insanity. What about your parents? Full of grief, I assume-losing their kid forever just because he didnt know better.

Its the wrong thing to do. Forget about the importance of love here-if its wrong, love great enough to turn the world upside down is not enough to justify what he did. Dramatic. Touching. Heartfelt. Ends there. Nothing past that-a pretty sorry life and even sorrier for the kid.

You're the one who was comparing it to Romeo and Juliet.
The whole point of this thread is that it's love, and it obviously is since he did that. And you JUST said it, so there.

Socially, he did nothing but outcast them. Most importantly, did he help make a better life for them? No. Blinded by their love, both probably didnt realize the limits of their happiness-what a life. 50 years in a crag in the mountain, forlorn and away from family and friends and civilization.
do not claim something you cannot prove. And the whole story is somethings not always told from a simple article such as this.


I would have given into your argument already if the article had been comprised only of text. There were little pictures included with it-boy, did it look destitute or what. You don't need an auto-biography to know what kind of life they lived. Its pretty easy to tell that already from the pictures, and if that doesnt convince you, re-read the article and pay attention to some of the quotes that the two lovebirds make.

It was honestly not deserving enough to be compared with the bane of all romance stories-Romeo and Juliet. Dont understand people who find this "moving". The comments made me think more than this story. :roll:


are you kidding me, you're actually comparing a REAL man carving REAL 6000 stairs up a REAL mountain to some MADE UP Shakespeare crap that did not even represent his best work.

Out of interest have you even READ Romeo and Juliet


You missed my point.

@[SD]Rainigul: you did too.
If your gonna base your claim on those pics, guess your too conditioned to your way of life thus reason why you continue to claim there life was crap. They don't have a big TV or a car or a vacuum or a working shower, who says that matters at all? From what I've gather your saying their not happy cause they didn't have material objects in their lives?
