For the past two weeks I'm reading a different story" Romeo and Juliet" It's a famous story for centuries. It's a tragic love story.

The Capulets and the Montagues had been fighting with each other for years. In one party, Romeo loved Juliet at the first sight, that how the story started. Romeo and Juliet loved each other very much, but because they from families that despise each other, so their love were full of frustrations. At the end of the story both Romeo and Juliet died. True love had sacrificed because of their families' conflict. Although it's a tragedy, but the two families got along with each other at last. It somehow gave them a lesson.

After finishing the story I felt pretty sad. In the age we're in, we can freely fall in love with anyone we want most of the time. What happened to Romeo and Juliet can't possible happen at our time. The two families finally make up at the end of the story, but they cost two young fellows to die, and sacrificed their remarkable love. I believe it is pathetic to happen such things, it's childish. If we have to lose something important to teach us a lesson, I consider it meaningless. I hope people can think carefully, before they both lose something precious to them just to learn a lesson.
