Hi, today I 'll attempt an article/essay about love... Anyone who see this is free to give comments.
There is a saying 'love is blind'. The reason for this saying could be due to many factors. Some people love someone whom society seen as strange or even unacceptable such as much older people, poor people, disabled, jobless, used-to-be criminals, prostitute, etc. Some people could do the unthinkable for their love such as giving up their social status, riches, body organs to be with their love.
However are they really blinded by their love? In my opinion love is not blind. When people sacrificed their possesion or image or social status for a people, they did so as they saw something lovely in them, which people did not see. For example, they could see sincerity behind an 'ugly' face, the repentance of a prostitute or the humbleness of criminals, they see the maturity of an older person. The notion saying their love is blind because we did not see what they saw. In other words, we are blind.
Only lust can make people blind and perform unacceptable things (such as rape, constant harrassment to the one whom their so-called loved one). People often mixed their love with infatuation and lust. However they are often in conflict. Love will see that the act of harrassing, raping will bring sadness to the other party. However lust is blind of all this. Love will try to understand the other party's feeling, and thought. It will sacrifice even physical closeness if the other party refused to be with them. And it will bring joy to them. However lust very much contains the desire to be satisfied physically.
In love, we have no motive whatsoever. In love there's only sacrificing to be done and joy as a reward. Thus love is ,by definition, the state of wanting to better off someone without any motives or reasons. To many people this definition has a serious flaw. Human is a creature of reason. How can we do a thing without any reason? The answer is because love is a state, a human nature. There's no reason why water will freeze at 0 celcius (under normal condition). It is the nature of water molecule. Loving someone means using our mind(intelligence), body(action) and soul(life). Yes we all have love.
Love is beautiful. You should try to feel the love in you, and others. And start loving.
