The Most Potent Emotion

        The Merriam Webster Dictionary defines love as a "strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal ties." Love is a universal emotion that many of us are familiar with. Many of us come into contact with love every single day, whether it be from a significant other, family member, and even friends. In my life I have learned that love can be both good and bad. For example, without the love and support of family and friends I probably would not be as confident as I am today. The love of my parents can sometimes be so much it feels as if I am being smothered by it but, they see it as protecting me. I also fee l different types of love for different people and things. I love my parents in a completely different way than I love my friends. The love I feel for pizza is not as strong as the love I feel for my dog. When you love someone you are content with them, you enjoy there companionship, and for the most part enjoy being around them. Everyone expresses that love in a different way. Some people would shout their love for someone at the top of a mountain for someone, while others would simply prefer to whisper their love for some under their breath. Love is the strongest emotion that humans can feel.
