Ranger I qoute...'The nearest you can get to non-introspective knowledge of love, however, is seeing couples together.'.....

However, Ranger, love is not limited to just couples you see together. If it were really love, then it would last for a very very very long time instead of the many make-break arrangements of living. Its not an easy task being in love... for one encounters umpteen situatiuons where one has to sacrifice, adjust, surrender freedom of old bachelorhood, rethink your priorities.... and in the bargain one gets hurt. But if there's the sacrifice, patience, trust and the joy of just having that other person around... then it's love, one which will last enough to make you feel its taste a very long time. And it doesn't even have to be only between couples. What about between friends, between family mambers... its that bond between people thats called love. And to experience it , you have to reach out first to receive love. Its contagious and a chain reaction. Love is what sheilds you from negativity. The more you love... the more elevated your mood.... its not just chemical, its what a person is built upon in totality.
