Love

Writer’s Block
Our friends don’t always know us as well as they think, particularly when it comes to likes and dislikes. What would your friends be surprised to hear about you?

I don’t believe in true love. I don’t even know if I know what ‘love’ is. Every person’s definition of the word is either

a) a reflection of what they wish for in a relationship – which we all know is tainted from the beginning, because we often wish for the impossible, or the improbably

b) a reflection of what the person defines as their relationship, as if they are trying to justify that what they have with their current boyfriend or girlfriend is ‘true love’.

In reality, who knows what it is? Does it mean anything more than ‘care’? Are we giving too much importance to one word? Or are we throwing it around too much, lessening its significance?

Maybe all it is, is a chemical imbalance.
