In a recent conversation with a friend I revealed some of the "wisdom "a friend had shared with me on a very touchy subject...love.
Someone once told me that love has no reason. And, if you know the reason why you love that person, it's false love. I was confused when this was told to me because up until this was said to me I thought I knew WHY I loved. But the more I thought about it, the more i realized they were right. I got to pondering it and I saw the logic behind it. If you love someone for a specific reason or reasons...then what happens when they change? Do you stop loving them because that reason or thing you loved them for has changed? The more I thought about it the more I realized I had no idea why I loved my boyfriend. Among my friends I am commonly asked why do I go through the arguments, why do I deal with some of my boyfriends undesirable actions, in general as they would say, why do I put up with it? And I can't give a reason other than because I love him. It's inexplicable and an odd philosophy to ponder when so many people today have it backwards and I thought I would share it so you could ponder it too.

i so will ponder over this
ReplyDeleteyou love him and you don't know why.....hmmmm how sad, honestly i think thats way false advice...but if ur cool w/ shawnee, go for it...i mean... if ur married to someone and they support you and your children, give you a house to live in and food to eat...isn't that a reason to love them?? so therefor, you would know at least one reason of why you love somebody? u can't just go off love from your gut feeling... like how george bush made his decisions..."o...its my gut feeling that we should blah blah blah.." and now look where the country is...
