L.O.V.E

 
I mentioned in my profile that I am on a pursuit to discover and explore God, life, love and music. I have to share my recent experience on love, I just have to. I have to admit, I too, like many other people have had some preconceived ideas of what love is and well, love being love, not needing to be justified by our bare minimum opinions, just shines through by displaying what it really is. I have had moments in my life, many in fact, where I strongly believed that I did not deserve and I was not good enough to be loved. But love being love, just shines through by loving me hehehehe. Loving or being loved as I've recently learned, is about looking at something, or even someone and saying to yourself: "mara this is not what I'd always imagined, this is not how I've always done things, this is not what I am used to and fond of, this is not what I would normally pick, this has never crossed my mind" and still realizing that there's a wave of joy, peace and excitement flooding over all of that and making you feel or rather experience a love type of bond with that particular object or person. Perhaps its the adrenaline rush of newness, a venture into a new system with its new challenges and new obstacles, new tears, new laughs, new mistakes, new amendments, new discoveries. Perhaps its the thrill of falling for something or something that has never captured you before. I honestly think its a blend off both but most importantly, love in all this is having a "forever" goal with that object, person or system. Its a choice you make every morning and night, committing yourself and refusing to be comfortable. Don't get me wrong, being comfortable is great, it shows security and trust, but it tends to breed familiarity which inevitably cooks up boredom and resentment. Love causes an excitement and rush. Love says: "I'm not afraid to be pricked by all the thorns that are growing on these roads ahead of me, I'm just going to take these paths". This is my most recent experience with love. Someone else might have long experienced and forgotten this one, but to me, its still fresh. Oh, by the way, I am in love with motorcycles!
