Ahhh, to be young and in love - what a fairy-tale, ey? Love has always been a tricky topic for people; there's so many kinds of love out there that the word itself has become distorted. It's hard to figure out whether or not people actually mean it now-a-days because of how loosely it's thrown around. You'll always hear someone say how much they love a certain product or food, like if it were nothing. Is there a difference in meaning when people say, i love you as oppose to saying, i love chocolate? We seem to use it because of how the word expresses our passion about a particular thing. However, it seems to change when it involves human relation; when it comes to saying i love you to a stranger, that won't happen. We can express how passionate we are about chocolate but not about people we don't know. Yes, there is a distinction between chocolate and a human being but there is a great quote that allowed me to see how they could be inter-changeable: "I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together." It might sound cliche that i am quoting The Beatles but taking the statement into consideration, i feel John is saying that we are all one here.
Okay, so, i jumped into an extremely interesting concept here by stating that every living entity is a part of a collective consciousness, that is our universe, which so happens to be love. We can say i love you to meaningless things but when we say i love you to a human being all of a sudden there is meaning and we are careful about how we express it. However, if we all are made of the same thing - love - then doesn't that mean we are just as meaningful as the feces we flush down the toilet? I love that just as much as i love chocolate, haha. It's true, I am a part of those things, i am in love. It's interesting to think that we share such a magnificent world together but yet we can't share our love together. To be in love; to be one with it all; it sounds like such a fairy-tale. All i know is that i love chocolate, therefore, i love you.
This sounds a lot like philosophy. If a tree falls in the woods... very interesting. very deep and meaningful.
ReplyDeleteLove does feel good, especially when it is reciprocated. Can chocolate love you back?
My grandma used to tell me that she liked me and loved me. She said people say "I love you" all of the time, just to say it or to say it back even if they didn't feel the same way. SO, she would say liking someone is more important. You like or enjoy someone. You like to be with that person. You enjoy being with that person. You enjoy eating chocolate?? Sure.
I love chocolate!
What do you think?
Philosophy, shmilosophy, i just have a lot of time on my hands and like weirding people out by expressing how much i love them lol. Chocolate loves you back, trust me; if you think about it, the reason why it taste so good is because it loves you, haha. I completely feel that, it makes sense in my head. The important part i feel, is that we enjoy each other, whether we its liking or loving, the important part is we appreciate each others company!
