Hey, akokites. Just my random thoughts concerning 'the feeling that you feel when you feel a feeling that you have never felt before' - love.
Love is heart deep. When you love someone, you love the sparkle in their eyes when they are happy or mad, you love EVERYTHING about them, the whole package (things you wouldn't give the light of day if you just liked them). Despite their worst characters, you can look them in the eye, and truly say, 'I LOVE YOU'). There'll always be someone prettier, smarter, even more compatible, but there's just one in whom you can find that one true love.
To the Loved
Make no mistake - love requires investment of energy, time. Love requires work and sacrifice. Love does not turn a blind eye to evil, it tries to improve, correct. It is out of love that a parent chastises his/her child. It is one who is loved that is pushed to improve, to be the best he/she can be. It is both a weakness and strength. He who loves is vulnerable to the one he loves. Can't do with it, you most certainly can't do without it.
