love is a many splendored thing

Al mio amore,

to love is a beautiful thing. but being in love is far more beautiful than it. how can it be, one may ask, but its the fact. the fact that to be in love is when 2 hearts become one. 2 different lives become one. its the feeling that one has that it may seem childish to some. especially to our parents who keep thinking that we are too young. to soft a heart that we could not take any hiccups


look at our parents. be it being match-made or be it having their own relationship. they love each other. one may joked about it. as in we are the result of their "accident" but then again its about love. the love they share. look at it this way, if they had not thought about love or felt love, they wouldnt have painstakingly made ue, thought about the future and about how they are going to support us. thinking of what will be of us when we grow up.


i find it funny how one label having sex as love making. do we even notice that its not even proper to some extent? i mean, love making involves 2 different people showing love to each other. its not about the sex at all. sex is their after-math of loving. its the joy of loving someone. the bliss both parties live in. thus having sex is not love making. its a whole different thing all together.


look around us, everything is about love. food for example, the Pizza Hut calls they product veggie lover's. lame as it may sound, but its because of the love for veggie that they all it that way. look at the movies, be it Malay-wood, Hollywood, Bollywood. 70-80 percent of their movies circles around the idea of love. then comes the celebration, isn't Valentine about love? isn't Christmas about love, the joy of family togetherness ? the Hari Raya Haj about love? OK, this i have to explain. going to pilgrimage . where does it includes love? coming to Mecca is a long and tedious journey, but if one does not love his God, one does not love his religion, who would want to leave behind his family and enjoy the bliss and comfort of his own house?


in fact in English, we could label our house as home. you see, the 2 difference of these is that one is just a protective structure from rain and other external factor. but as for home its about how it involves feelings and people. our comfort zone, our warmness of love. i must say, most of the time i don't feel it. but then again, its still my best comfort zone.


till next time,
Lovesick Avenue.
