I posted this on another site, so I thought I should post it here aswell..

I just finished watching a movie that made everything make a little bit of sense. "A Glass House" with Reeves and Bullock. It is about something completely impossible and how it could work out.

"Love" What the hell is the issue? We all want it and many think they have it or have had it. But really, who has had it? It is in every way a two person deal.

I once thought that the difference between being in love and just loving was something like this: Just "love" is what most people get. You are comfortable and safe, but not really there 100%. Being "In Love" would have nothing to do with feeling safe and being compfortable, it is about this overwelming connection for someone in your life and it just makes you feel good when they are around. You see that my old way of thinking was a bit selfish.

Now, I think I understand a bit more about what "Being In Love" really is or rather should be. It has nothing to do with you as an individual feeling this overwhelming connection towards another person. I can see that it is how many people think, to include myself up until this point.

I see now that the concept of being in love has nothing to do with just myself as an individual being compfortable or someone being compfortable around me.

It has everything to do with knowing that there is a person that can be made happy by you because you want them to be happy and you would go through any lengths to make them happy and safe. You miss them when they are gone, smile when you know they are in the same time zone and expect nothing in return for your own feelings towards them. You just want them to be ok and happy. Even if that happiness has nothing to do with you. That's the hard part. If it makes you upset that they may not love you back or love someone else other than you, then it becomes just selfish love. Their happiness having nothing to do with you. Just as long as they are happy and safe, what would it matter that you are not the one making that happen, if anyone at all? "That is being "In Love".

There is another level. "True Love" This is what happens, when two people together experience the above parragraph towards eachother at the same time. This is what most really want. It would be undying, mutual and real.

This is a nice post, Robert.

Love is elusive, but it's all-knowing at the same time. Trust the heart and everything around you will fall into place!

I HATE WHEN ADMINISTRATION TRIED TO DELETE A TOPIC THAT'S INTERESTING ....
