Writing Again

The L-word.

Such a bizarrely small word that seems to pack so much damn pressure.  In some people's lives, it may be argued even that for some people, it's the worst of all four letter words.

Love.  L-O-V-E.  Four simple letters, one tiny syllable, endless meanings, feelings and possibilities.

We're a species obsessed with it, really.  There are very few people in this world who have luke-warm feelings about it, no matter what side of the spectrum it is, they tend to be extreme.  Funny thing is, no matter what you're opinion on the subject is, I think deep down we all share one thing in common: we're terrified of it.  Whether it's that we don't know if we'll find it or that we can't hold onto it, and if we can't hold onto it, how much is it going to rip us up and will we be able to recover.  United, we are scared shitless. 

writing, blather
