What is Love?     posted on 28th of august, 2007

People talk, people sing.

People dream, people try.

People smile, but people also lie.

Ask a teenager - What is love?

- Butterflies in the belly?, they'll immediately say.

 

Youngsters!, you reply. They don't know... But you do:

People are hurt, people are torn.

People fail, people never return.

People are left behind, but then again - many are not.

That's confusing! What is love?

 

Love lasts long, and love also forgives. Parents will say love requires nothing, their kids will say love is... a hug. The hurting ones from above might call love nasty, but then the many who are not declare it amazing.

 

I'm not a poet. I'm in love... But then again - what is love?

 

* love: never ends, is patient and kind, is a sacrifice

Love is seeing the worst parts of yourself reflected in someone else and realizing they are your own.
Love is seeing the best parts of yourself reflected in someone else and realizing that they are your own.
Love is seeing someone else, simultaneously, as both the same and other.
Love is supporting and allowing;
It is standing close, and stepping away.
Love is the glue
that holds the biosphere together.
Love is the force
that blows the world apart.
Love is bloody murder
and a sleeping pup.
It is my late father's hands
touching these keys.
It is my husband's anger
when his back hurts
and I can't help.
It is the family
finches raise
each year on our
front porch.
Love is the wide open
gaze of a
newborn child.

Very nice article and in the same time very large theme, but I choose t write this: " Therefore all things whatsoever you would that men should do to you, do you even so to them."

    About Me
Petar Neychev (Petarneychev)
Sliedrecht, NL

I suppose it all started when my father got me to help him develop B&W negatives in a dark room at home. Then there followed a few years of wandering through my computer high-school. Later on the photo passion was awakened during a semester-long art class towards the end of my BA education in theology. Today I photograph stuff.

Although this will not become my life-long main occupation I'm determined to keep growing in it, because ultimately, it's about passion - you've got to do it for more than just the cash; you've gotta enjoy it far more beyond the expectations you have of the earnings page. Because these are not quite the things that enabled photographers for decades before you even saw a camera to go through the long process of recording moments.

My photo dream? That some day I'll be satisfied enough to allow myself to frame and hang on the wall one of my shots. And that I'll actually enjoy it being there.
