Im definitely agre that kind of love, Media still existing nowadays, its not wrong to love the person to much, but the unexpected actions against him because of love.
In the beaknews at the televisions and radio, you will surely heard this kind of situation, because to much of love result as, he or she killed his/ her partner.
As woman, youll gave 101% of loved as possible to the person whom you loved so much, just like what Media have done in the story. Even if, hundreds of people are against with your affair its not really matter. Because youll sacrifice everything for the sake of your relationship. As long as, you found your true meaning of hapiness with him.
The sad part was, when the person you loved still committed to betrayed you despite of your unconditional love you offered to him. Desame as, what Jason have done to Media.
The deadliest moves of Media, because of her bitterness against to planned a complete “Revenge” to Jason. To killed his husband, children, and the princess of Corinthian. The angerness, she felt, that made her mindset to be blinded in her own actions.
Therefore I conclude that everything in this world that youll loved to much whether in terms of love, ambition or material things was not good. Just like a medicine, if you taken it more than required your body will overdosed and might killed you.
In short, when we talked about LOVE...”To much love will kill you”
