With Valentine’s Day approaching there was apparent love in the air. Here are a few of my thoughts on the subject. I would like to start with some lines I read somewhere.
Love is not receiving,

I think love is a feeling where one loses all his senses towards the person he loves. There are many forms of love. Love can be between mother-son, brothers, boy and a girl, human and God and many more. A common string everywhere is that one is willing to give everything he has for the person he loves. Now question comes then does love decay someone. Well off course not. I feel true love can be a way to self actualize. A way towards spirituality. A way towards one’s own self in a better manner. Everyone sees it from his own perspective. The point I am trying to make is, for me Love is something where one loses his own perspective or rather loses his self pride.
We have mythological and other stories filled with love. Even in case of
I think I have just started this topic. Reader’s comments can really enhance it. I will write more on the same topic shortly…
