To Love, to love deep, to love light, and not to Love


You love and you stagger in it, you pain and ache;

You love deep and you feel you are not loved as deep;

You love light and you are afraid your love is not strong enough;

You love but you are told to love is not to love.

---------------------------

A senior mother in her 60s, reading a book "Those Love that We Make Bad" on the beach, told me,

'I know now why he left me, because he has no ability to love, although he know my love is real and strong...I felt pain before now i dont...'

Recently, she likes going to beach, to read or to write. Love is something that we pursue for a life time, at any age.

Do we know our love ability? Can we really love? What's the perfect intensity to love?

...friend...when you find perfect intensity...let me know. everything now is outdated tomorrow and that holds for love too. Here we are involving 2 person and 2 different sets of emotion, each influenced by its own stimuli.

But when it comes to two diff levels like parent-children, the ability fluctuates less because some things are more naturally emphasized like obedience, conformance, and bonding.

But between spounses, it may be dif than between gf or lovers..... there are imperfection as the needs and the sensitivity of others need varies and fluctuate.

If you are seeking that perfect intensity, you will be utterly disappointed...because we live in an imperfect world and only if we know how to live in this imperfect world, then only can we learn to be happy and live and let live.

Wise GOLD,

Gold prices are fluctuating too. You are damn right pointing out the fluctuation difference in different relationship.

But i know some ppl, esp. women know how to manipulate the intensity, so as to feel comfortable in love and take control of their sensitivity, as well let them look attractive and let the partner feel attached.

Abt the perfect and imperfect, nowadays the world is more and more imperfect but what a doom that still some ppl look for perfection.

Live and let live, i love it!

no, DVC,

The world is more complicated today, more new created elements joining the strife, more old traditions/values lost.

In sense of material, my gdparents' world was less perfect than mine; in regard to spirit, theirs was much more perfect. Yr comparison of hunger figures btwn now and past sounds. To be fed is important. But I dont see the good of being literate or not; in a world where most were illiterate, maybe better, if they were in a proportionally happy world.

As for love ability, sure, the 60-y-o is true. Some ppl lack of this and are unable to love, matching nobody.
