Ma philosophie sur l'amour (My Philosophy About Love)

I was reading one night when I came across an interesting question in our Logic book wherein it says, "What is your philosophy about love?"

Well of course, the primary concern of Logic is man's ultimate reasons and their principle about things. And then LOVE, a feeling that almost all individuals could not resist.




I asked myself, "Do I have principles concerning love and have I got reasons to show love for others?"

And as I pondered over the thought, I found myself answering the all the doubts that I have with me.

Yes, love is a great feeling, something that most of us just couldn't deny, something worth the wait and something that could probably shape us as better individuals. But looking at the deeper side of the context, I guess love comes with the right time, with the right understanding, with the right person and with a ready mind and HEART. Love is not a want but a need. It is not acquired just for practicality purposes but as a source of "defined" happiness. Love comes with respect, and indeed, the feeling should always be taken care of. Love is a debt that we always have to pay, something that we should consider  as a thing(of personal ownership) that when borrowed, in time, should be returned. And lastly, like an equation, love SOMETIMES has an end point, love dies. It may be so hard for us to accept but we should.

Why?

Because for me, love is a borrowed time, a time we have all borrowed from God. It is for the reason that, as soon as we learn to love others, we sometimes tend to forget that there is a God whom we should all be giving our love. But as death comes, I know that along with the numbness of our body, OUR LOVE FOR OTHERS SUDDENLY DIES, and all that's left is our love for God, who's been there waiting for us to give ourselves back to Him.
