The Big L

"Tell me everything you can tell me about being in love"... It's funny that I go around asking people this question, when I'm so far from it, but this question has brought new insights, new friends, and a whole new twist on how I think about love. The best though was when I asked my aunt what she could tell me about love. She got teary eyed, choked up and her response was, "it's caring for someone more than you care about yourself." Some people said love is a long conversation, some said it's something you grow into as opposed to falling into. Some said it's having someone who cares about all the small stupid things that went on in your day when no one else does. Others said you know you're falling into love when your world starts revolving around that person. All agreed that it's hard work, but well worth the effort. Music artists try to write songs about love, thinking it can be expressed through music or words, but I think it runs much deeper than that. "Love lifts us up where we belong", "all you need is love", "love is a battlefield", "I will love you always" "it's your love". However I look at it, how ever you sing it, or express it, I can't help but think... it's true... love is the answer!
