Love

Love, the four letter word that means so much can make a person’s day. It can make you wake up in the morning with just a little more bounce in your step. The same little four letter word that can also break you down, make you realize that it’s not always about you. It can be an absolutely terrifying word, it can change a person. It makes people do crazy things, it makes you stop and think about things you thought you would never have thought about. The famous quote from John Lennon was “All you need is love.” Is it really all that simple though? Is it just four simple letters that can change everything? Why is it that people are so scared to hear them? Why can some people just say they love someone and not actually believe and some people only say it when they truly mean it? Why do some people not even believe in love at all? Love is a tricky thing, we can think that we love someone at a young age and at the end of the day we have no clue what love is. We can even think we have found love after have already live our life and think we have already learned everything life has to offer and still have no clue what love is. What is love? Well we know is four letters, it’s pretty easy to spell and to some it’s easy to say. We know that we love our parents and parents love their children. We know that we should love thy neighbour as thy self, and there are many different definitions of love. Can it be as simple as just find your best friend, someone who you could not bear to live without. Would it be someone who you can tell everything and anything to, or someone who knows you inside and out? The person who knows every little secret you have and you have known for a lifetime. Is love like life’s version of chesse wiz? We don’t really know what cheese whiz is, and we know that its only one particle from being plastic but we accept the fact that we can eat it and really enjoy it. Everyone loves a happy ending, the idea of prince charming waking us up out of our slumber of life. We accept that we will never understand many things this life has for us such as love. We don’t really ever know what it is, or even what it feels like. We have an idea of what it is and we guess at the fact that we know what love is. It could very well be one particle away from a fairy tale, but we will accept that fact that we truly don’t know what it really is and believe that we have found it. No one will ever have the true and real answers as to what all of this truly means. That can very well be the answer to these questions or maybe the answer is that there is no answer. Children have an amazing mind of imagination, they can believe in the smallest things and no one can tell them otherwise. They enjoy thinking and believe that the world is a happy place of fun and play and as we grow up we lose that. We lose the imagination and only focus on reality and won’t look at it any other way. There are facts and there is fiction and we just only want believe what we can see and feel. But maybe it’s all fiction, maybe we just are not suppose to understand everything.
