"LOVE", something you and I hear very often on television shows, radio shows, songs, movies, books and virtually on every possible media source. I looked it up the dictionary and I got this - "a feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, as for a parent, child, or friend.".
I believe all of us, if not a huge majority of us have experienced love either on the giving or the receiving end. For most of us, we experience love from our parents. After all, it is our parents who brought us to this very world we live in. Believe you me, it was far from easy for them to bring us up and teach us to be good samaritans; at least for most of us.
A friend of mine suddenly pop a question to me a week ago, "why don't you blog about love and see what are your thoughts about love?". Frankly, I never really sat down to think about love. Probably due to the fact that I spend most of time hating my job!
So for today, I am going to try to ask myself what is love and what I perceive love to be. Perfect topic for tonight given my depressing and sad state.
I must admit, my very first experience of love came from my parents! If they neglected me, I would not be who I am today and I will not be even typing out this blog for the matter. I also felt love with my pet dog, - he never fails to come running towards me every night I get home tired and grouchy from work!
Otherwise, I felt love when I was dating some time ago. Ask me whether it was a nice feeling, I'd say it was a nice feeling. Sadly, I never had much dating experience due to poor management of emotions and time. Quite frankly, I duly admit it is something I must work on dearly!
I guess when someone asks me about love, presumably it should be relating to the lovey dovey situation people get into when falling for the opposite sex. I never had many relationships so, therefore it concludes my extreme lack of experience and exposure to such feelings. My perception - when someone meets the person he truly adores, it would be like having to be on cloud nine; totally falling head over heels for that one person; willing to do anything to get that one person's attention; and would ultimately want to be that one person's life long partner. From that perspective, love is not something one would be able to experience every day and it is something that comes when it just comes.
Personally, I have spoken to many wonderful wedded couples and I have asked them how is it that they knew they were right for each other. I think all the couples I spoke to gave me similar answers saying they never knew it was coming and somehow deep down in their hearts they knew the chemistry was right between both of them.
I guess I haven't reach a point in life where I can say, "she's the one!" :S
