After reading the 'Ever fallen in love' thread, and seeing some of your cynical attitudes towards love (ok, so it is tuesday), just thought I'd start my own thread making the case for love.... Smile

Love is the greatest thing in the universe! And that doesn't just mean being in love....

Love is in the air.... Love is all around us.... Love is Life... I love life.... I love my job, I love wellington, I love music, I love doing my radio show (wahoo! it's tonight!)

I love all you people (hehe, no i'm not on anything)... In fact, I love all the people in my life....

I love being in love.... even when it hurts... when it hurts, I know I must have just experienced something incredible to feel this way... and I know I'm letting love in, rather than holding on to fear....

Open your eyes.. you'll see love... open your heart, you'll feel love...

Love is the only way to live....

Love,
Mutant. Smile

Its hard for the cynical, broken, miserable people to handle people expressing their love.

It must be the hormones or something, because you sound like your world is full of candy floss and cute lil' bunny wabbits. It's all a bit too sickly saccharin sweet.

My life is full of deadlines, stress and too much caffiene.

Love the moment, and the energy of that moment will spread beyond all boundaries.
- Corita Kent

Unless we practice loving feelings toward everyone we meet, day in, day out, we're missing out on the most joyous part of life. If we can actually open our hearts, there's no difficulty in being happy.
-Ayya Khema, "Be an Island"

Where there is great love, there are always miracles.
- Willa Cather

We either make ourselves happy or miserable. The amount of work is the same.
- Carlos Castaneda

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.

Happiness makes up in height for what it lacks in length.
- Robert Frost

Can any lock keep love confined within,
When the loving heart's tiny tears escape and confess it?

The unloving belong only to themselves,
But the loving belong to others to their very bones.

- Tirukkural 8:71-72

There's possibly a market there, though we get fresh ground coffee delivered to our office. Ready-made flat whites or lattes wouldn't be a good idea, since they have to be consumed quickly while dangerously hot.

Not bad stuff exactly... just very busy. Didn't intend it to sound like that, but still feel overly shiney people are painful to bear these days.

Is that because you don't believe it's possible to be like that, you don't believe that the people in this thread feel like that (and are just deluding themselves), or you don't believe that you could be like that..?

For You My Love

If I came to your doorstep
would you welcome me in
or would you turn me away
in shame?
Would you take me to your
family in pride of knowing me?
Or say you have never
heard my name?

Would you caress me when we met
with open arms or
would you hide me away in fear
of unknown harms?

If I beckoned for your love
would you open your heart?
If I asked for your tenderness
would you kiss my tears away?
If I came to you willingly
would you give me your love?
If I whispered I love you,
what would you say?

I give my love freely,
for it is mine to give.
My love has no possessor.
My life is mine to live.
[quote]
I can't tell - is that a happy song or a sad song?

*goes away to have a little cry*
[quote]
There;s a geezer called Split on another board who said

"THere's no point telling people they should be happy, then ignoring them when they're not".

Happiness need not be demonstrative either. Happiness for me is definitely more of a quiet thing.

Because I don't think I'm capable of feeling that way these days Mutant. I did once, but now I question the nature of the emotions. I think I might have been hallucinating on a cocktail of hormones released by my body.

That's a shame....

But I still believe it's a choice... whether concious or unconcious...

And no, tpl, I'm not on substances.... and I do agree, that you don't necessarily have to tell the world if you're happy... but there's nothing wrong if you want to (99.9% of people tell the world when they're miserable, so why not the other way around?).
[quote]
Right, now that I've made people cry, I reckon my job here is done.

Hopefully you loved up muppets have enough fluffy fuzziness to make up for us broken, cynical bastards.

lol... I don't, I tell it like it is. But thats because I keep forgetting that "how are you" is a greeting, not a question.

i did the ultimate sin yesterday..
was rushing through the supermarket (i hate those places)
to grab a few things and rushed past a guy i hadn't seen in years..
he said "hi" i said "hi how are you?" but didn't stop for the answer!!
HOW RUDE.. i hate it when i do that.
i really would have liked to know how he was, but just didn't have the time to stop Sad
im a bad person Sad

evil EVIL EVIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLL princess!

but seriously, does anyone ever really not have enough time? There's plenty of time in a week to spend with all the people you need to spend time with... the person you were running late for can wait 5 minutes... they won't mind
[quote]
i can see what JAH's getting at with his dislike of overuse of quotes in this thread!

i've been too scared to say anything in here... in fear of being shot down.

i am the girl who will tell anyone and everyone how i'm feeling, whether it's happy or sad or somewhere in between.

my motto: no games, no bullshit - and it seems to work well in my relationships, and most of my friendships Smile but it also means sometimes i regret reacting to something immediately... cos 5mins later i'm sure i would have calmed down!
[quote]
love you storie *mwah* i love the fact that no matter what, we ARE fine 5 mins later Smile

Addict said:

ahh but we do that all the time anyway, regardless of whether we're in love or not...

if you meant that love is based on sexual desire then i suggest you read 'on love and lust' by some guy. just the first chapter should be enough to change that

keep the love alive! Smile

love is a dam good thing to be in but man it sux to be out of.
