Anatomy Of The Word Love

I find it odd how people pair up and commit to one another by devoting their time and efforts to please the other. This is usually described by many singers and poets as love. Though this word is thrown around and used by everyone to describe their feelings for everything, it is clear that many may not understand the extent nor the ramifications of this powerful word. This word brings eminence happiness but it can also cause extreme pain if misused. This is more than just a word. People are willing to change their ways of life and even change who they are to feed their feelings of love for another person. This basically makes this word a way of a life.

People who seek love sometimes have standards that are too high to be met by another person. Its about seeing an imperfect person under a perfect light. You need not find someone who is picture perfect, but rather find some who fits into your picture perfectly. A good friend once broke it all in a single quote, "You arrive at love not by finding a perfect person but by seeing a imperfect person perfectly."

I hope that one day I am able to feel this euphoric feeling that causes individuals to act outside of their characters. This feeling that makes people act against the values they live their lives by. I want to find someone who makes me want to leap onto tops of roofs and declare my love with the entire city as my witness. Maybe one day I will feel the unthinkable. Maybe one day I will be overcome by this indescribable feeling. Just maybe...
