| ON LOVE....... |
| To speak of love...what is this thing called love anyways? Some sought out "feeling" or "emotion". A term that if brought up by one, may produce stories of joy; yet, by another, everflowing misery. Yes..this is what love is..love, hate..may be one and the same. The same time that love brings secutrity, it also brings jealousy and doubts. A willing contradiction. And also love seems to define people and their state of mind.....to have love is glorious..but to be without...seemingly eternal inner punishment. Is it possible to love..uncondtionally? Nothing is without conditions.....Of course you love that person, but wouldn't it all change if they abadoned you? Abused or used you? Love is not unconditional. Love is conditioned. Love is based on the need of companionship, security and protection. We may "fall in love" or feel amourous or deeply for another..but can anyone truly say those feelings actually last? Sure, you love that person...but it's not quite the same is it? Then you settle. Your comfortable..you feel secure and stable..so why do it all agin with someone else..I mean it took that long to get where you are now..why bother? Is this not why we use the term settling? Because that's what we're doing..settling for what we have? How many couples do you know in their fifties who are in what society has called love? It's rare..and unbelieveable....... I do believe in love..as much as I believe in the anguish that comes from loving..............but to love..is to give someone your heart..and hope they don't eat it |
