Love|

Love: a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person,a feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, as for a parent, child, or friend.

This word to some people is described as being "in", like filling a empty cup with a warm beverage, or gracing a blank page with the delicate tip of a pen.

Others would describe their love to be a commitment of years of struggle, triumph, sweet echoes of laughter still hanging in the air, and shoulders feeling the weight of it's charm;carrying it soulfully, and with pride.

Some would say they see it in the wonder of a child, the glee of his first discoveries. Experiencing each new touch, word, emotion with keenness.

Love could be a journey of the senses to others; peering into the shadows of a forest, seeing the droplets on a leaf, the glisten of the light snow on the frozen ground.

Others would defer to a more simple answer: you know you feel it when you meet "that" person.

Music is often describe as having the ability to reach the depths of your soul. That's what I think that love is to our hearts. It has the ability to reach beyond our own comprehension, our own power of control, and our tiny glimpse into our present states.

It strips us of our walls, our coldness, our fears and allows us to melt in its' warmth. Allowing us to relish its' kindness, feeling surrounded by comfort, giving us a place to be vulnerable, honest and heartfelt.

I often feel as if love has a secret to keep from me. Like its' eyes laugh with a knowledge of something I have yet to begin to discover;giving the appearance of a master.

My journey to understanding what it means to love has just begun. May my love for others grow deep, wide, rich and complete.
