......L-O-V-E.......
LOVE, its an easy weird to say. It's only one syllable, four letters, and isn't that hard to pronounce, or text. But what is LOVE? No one clearly knows. No scientist can prove what love is by a couple of lab tests and a lab sheet with data, a graph, and numbers. We all have our own definition. We all "think" we know what it means. We think what we know we thought we think. Make sense? Is LOVE a thought? Just a word? Or more of a feeling? Can it be all three? According to "America favotite dictionary" the Miriam Websters's Collegiate Dictionary, love is:a (1) : strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal ties <maternal love for a child> (2) : attraction based on sexual desire : affection and tenderness felt by lovers (3) : affection based on admiration, benevolence, or common interests <love for his old schoolmates>b : an assurance of affection <give her my love>. Can we trust the dictionary? So many questions and so little answers. To me LOVE is a feeling. Affection? yes. Strong affection? For me, yes for others no. Now, a kind of subcategory, "True love". LOve is the feeling, but true changes the meaning slightly. True love is the kind of love someone has towards another that is based on feelings towards another person, but the feelings are actually present. No one can really know if someone loves another, only that person does. That's why love is so complex. Right when we think we know it all, we are thrown off and heading onto broader ideas of what love really is. It's confusing, amazing, and difficult to fully comprehend.People are always deceived into true love. One person may actually love that other person, but the other is just flirting around with the oppisite sex. People may love someone for there money but that doesn's mean they neccessairly love them, but there bank accounts. Theses days, from the internet, people, and T.V., i see less and less romantic love, but more of the "Money" love. People think money is what they need to stay alive. I mean yes we need it, but we don't need hundreds and thousands of dollars to live. People in lower working class make less than $60,000 and may-be single parents and still live there lives. Doesn'st matter if the person is working a low end job, it still makes them human. We all think we know what Love really is, but what we know comes from inside of us and how we feel for that special someone. isn't Love more than you thought? now you give it a thought and tell me what you think love is to you.

Your blog is so interesting. I think "love" is pretty ambiguous. Each one of us has a different way of thinking when they say the word "love." But what I'm sure about, is that people just say the word just for the fun of it and not knowing that it is a a very strong word to say. Personally, I'm barely experiencing what love means. I think it's a great feeling but you also got to be careful who you fall in love with. Like I said before, your blog is very interesting and it's one of the best ones I've read since the semester started. GOOD JOB!
