The Question of Love
Truly, what is love? How do you find love? Where do you find love? Once you find love how can you keep it? These are all very good questions when referring to this ominous thing looming above our young heads. How can any one who isn't in love know what love is? How can those people who say they are in love know to their core that they are in love? Why can't love be a thing that is exact or precise? Many things that we know to be true can be proven wrong. Can love be the same way? We all tell someone that we love them. It might be our parents or our friends, but we say we love them, so is that the same kind of love that is shown to a boyfriend or girlfriend? Is your love for one stronger than the other? What makes love? Is it a good relationship with a person, or is it intimacy? How can you tell if it is love or if it is lust? Could it be both with one just a little ahead of the other, or one disguising itself as the other? We know what we are supposed to believe love is, but is that truly what everyone wants? Are you supposed to have enough passion to give your life for them? Or is that just obsession? If so then what draws the line? There are so many variables in this thing we call love, so which one should we weigh the most?
Thoughtful posts from the great minds in Mrs. Dupuy's English I Honors classes.
I really like your post because it makes the reader really wonder about what love really is and the detail and fine print of it. The questions that you ask express how you wonder as well and may not be able to pinpoint exactly what your definition of love is.
