Unexplainable Feeling

Unexplainable Feeling


 What is love? Does anybody really know what love is? Love is what most of our movies, songs, and books are based off of, but no one can tell you what it really means. There are lots of different kinds of love. There is the love between a mother and a newborn baby, a husband and a wife, and there's even the love you have for your favorite snack. Love is the most powerful thing in the world, but we all throw it around like it's nothing. Love can be the most beautiful thing in the world, but it can also be the most destructive. But despite the pain and sorrow that love can bring, everyone still strives to achieve it because love is the closest thing we have to magic. Love changes things. The simple four letter word can move mountains and melt a heart of stone.
  When I think of love, I think of Jesus Christ. In the bible it says "He who does not love does not know God, for God is love." Jesus Christ died on the cross for us so we wouldn't have to pay the price for our sins. Why? Because of love. Love is a feeling like no other. Love is giving your everything to something or someone else and not expecting anything in return. Love is cherishing another's happiness more than your own.
  Hearing the word love, many things flash through my mind whether it's a Nicholas Sparks book or the love i have for my brother, but if you were to randomly come up to me and ask me what love is, I would try to answer but the truth this, I have no clue. Sure I have my own interpretations of what the word means but so does everybody else. There's no one definition for love and that's why it frustrates me when parents say, "You don't know what love is, you're too young." So am I supposed to believe that love only comes with age? If I were to ask them what love is, they probably couldn't tell you what it is either because unlike any other feeling, love is unexplainable.
