What is Love?

If we consider it as a string, it has any two beings on both sides, each holding onto it as tight as they can, as much as their strength and mind allow them.

Others may define it as two souls and one body but it's beyond that. We can hold onto strings, help if the other falls, but most importantly, grow together. That too is not in one life form; it's more important to hold onto the string but walk your own paths. Too much involvement or getting inside personal space is never a good history, and seeing the moon and stars is always good for literature, never in real life, which itself has taught us that. But that's what we define the relationship as, not love.

Love can be keeping a distance from them and still thinking of them every morning or night; wanting them to be happy or even just satisfied. They exist so what more do you even wish for? It's not just between homo sapiens, could be your pet or plants or any non-living thing too. It's a very simple emotion that resides within ourselves where we always have this soft corner for, and might not want to let it go. It's not always possessiveness; it could be distant and intense at the same time. You then understand that what you love, has this natural habitat and you're not that. You cannot invade theirs, or bring them into yours.

It's just an elementary feeling of attachment, which has been complexified by humans who don't even know what they feel. It's this inflow of good emotions you get around anything or anyone you love that could be incomparable. It's different for everyone, and no two strings could be the same length and thickness. There always are differences and we just need to notice and accept them.

Love does not demand its expression all the time, it just demands its presence in the place of its very source. It does not have to travel or get transferred to where it doesn't belong.

I may not know how to love, but I know how it is to receive some. I may not know it's love either, but I am optimistic and I hope it brings good to all those who are capable of giving and receiving love.
