Love

[my_perception]

"Love like this feels desperate, like it claws at your insides, trying to break free of your heart. It's far too cramped in there for an emotion so large and wild with passion."

"That's why people make love... they are desperate to express themselves. Words fail, where actions speak far more loudly."

What do you think? What are your opinions on

It's interesting you should post this. I just saw 'Love Actually' on Saturday night, and I'm still full of the film. It's a beautiful, beautiful film - but I wouldn't recommend seeing it without somebody who you're very close to. Especially if soulful, gorgeously hopeful endings make you all soppy. :')

"Love like this feels desperate, like it claws at your insides, trying to break free of your heart. It's far too cramped in there for an emotion so large and wild with passion."

I know the love you're talking about. It's the frantic, melodramatic, overarching love of the romances, the love that turns men into lions and women into opera singers (or so the musicals would have us believe ;)) But I think that, like anger, it's a dangerous emotion. It's too raw, too unchanneled - but the difference between this love and anger is that anger is thought of as 'bad' and this love as 'noble', as 'great'.

Unchained, soul-thrumming emotion is always dangerous. Bring this love to the bed, or to the balcony where you cry out your undying adoration

What do you think? What are your opinions on these two statements? What does love feel like, to you? How do you express it?

My loves are born as a little nervous fear and affection, churning inside of me every time I speak with the object of my love. It feels like the first solo on stage every time I meet her, I'm conscious of every thing she does, even if I'd rather not be.

I can try to choose, then. Whether to let it real and become something alive, or whether it's best to let it lie, try to let it fade away. If I choose to leave it, if I can, then it lingers on, like perfume in a room, but will eventually fade

Perhaps it is top secret. Perhaps you hit the nail right on the head. :) Maybe I'm merely surrounded by others love and can't help but think about it. I could even be in love, myself. It's actually a little bit of everything. :)

This post actually originated from a conversation that I had with someone, and the conversation that I had is came from that little bit of everything.

And you impress me, dear. Every time. If I wasn't in the school library, I would cartwheel. It just makes me feel so special that you take so much time out to respond so thoroughly to my journal posts, sometimes. :)

You post thought-provoking things. :)

You also have a disturbing tendancy to phrase compliments in terms of how the complimentee makes you feel, not in terms of the thing they did in order to receive your compliment. It leaves me totally unable to disclaim it with an 'Ah, well, y'know...' remark, and forces me to instead respond by grinning and feeling appreciated.

Fiend.

Hey sweety, I just got your comments but I'm at school right now, so I can't talk if you're out there. I just wanted to let you know that I did read them, all of them, and as always, you made me smile. :)

You're pretty damn great, yourself, by the way. :)

We will talk later. :)
