The Essence of Falling in Love is a story about a young lady who, at the age of 16, had a passion for love and was certain that one’s first love would be the most exciting and long lasting. Kutloisiso Mahlangu and Mphoentle Mahola are the main characters whose story is being told about their experience of first love and how they managed to get back to the understanding of Love.
The aim behind the story is to help young people understand that being in a relationship has nothing to do with acceptance. Too many youngsters nowadays fall in love with each other so that they can be accepted by the group they hang out with. In such cases love is more about personal gain seeing us partnering or ‘falling in love’ or become attached to a certain person so that people can see who we are and what we are capable of.
This story also hopes to educated people, that being attached to your partner doesn’t necessarily mean that the person will love you forever and also that no one should ever allow themselves to be abused in the name of love.
