    Love can take all the forms of the seven deadly sins.

    It can be lustful, It can be Gluttonous, It can be Greedy, can turn you into a Sloth, can make you desperate, wrathful, envious, can make you too proud


    So my message, Love can turn you into a fat, lazy, horny, psycho jealous loser that just likes to sit around in your own and your partners filth all day long.

    Bah humbug

    When you think about it,
    1) Flowers are lazy because they don't do anything
    2) Flowers eat all day, so that makes them gluttonous and greedy.
    3) Flowers love filth. Heck they like to grow in shit!
    4) Flowers tend to be psychos. Because some have thorns and most can provoke allergies.
    5) Flowers are horny! All they do is pollinate every chance they get!

    When you look at flowers in that perspective, they're a bunch of loosers.
    But still, I really love flowers! :daisy:
    So I guess that means I love your fat, lazy, horny, psycho jealous looser butt. Even if all you want to do is sit around in your own filth all day.:love:

    I stated that love is biased. Human beings are hardwired for survival. We tend to show favor towards those we love, and we tend to be biased in favor of the attractive. For better or worse, the base emotion of human attachment favors favoritism. Universal love is an ideal, and it requires commitment to fulfill. It is very difficult to love everyone like your brother, because some people are more familiar than others. Love can breed hate, because it favors some over the rest.

    That's your ideal of love. You can define love as anything you like, and it's useless arguing over what a word means. It's just a shame we have come to adopt a definition of love that is biased, because it is "too difficult" to eliminate that bias. Can't we be realistic and say that there is no love at all when there are such negative traits as bias, even if that implies most people are incapable of love? No, that would make us only too aware of our own failings...

    People have real love, only that it is often tied in with practical problems, and we love those we share our immediate lives left. To love our fellow humanity, we must become familiar with them.

    No no no no.

    Believe me when I say that love is a choice. Just as in the same manner we can choose to evolve beyond our prehistoric animal instincts and programing. We can choose to love others, including those we don't know or have ever met. Thereby doing so, become more then the sum of our parts.

    I can still choose to love you without conditions. There is just too many problems in this world, too much violence and far too much rationalisations condoning the shit that's going on.

    I can't make the ugliness of this world go away. But I can choose not to look at it. And in doing so, not feed into it or give it any more energy. I've never met any of you on here. And to be blunt, it doesn't matter. Because I don't need to meet anyone in order to love them.

    Yes, it's a typical 60s hippie guru philosophy. But I'm telling you all that it works!

    Arguably it might be that I've believe this due to my old age. There are far less days ahead of me then there are behind me. Let's just say that I make sure my will is kept up to date.

    What makes love the answer, because love is something that anyone can 'get', because it doesn't follow any reason, but at the same time its the most reasonable thing imaginable, when all the smoke clears, love is what you see, even people who deny everything that exists, can't deny love, and even if they do deny, their actions tell another story, love is the basis of all things, like you said its the glue, its the magnetism which makes everything fit harmonious, an old friend said legendarily

    Love is everything, love is the only thing

    love is the answer to the silent question, love is the continuity, and the synchronicity, love is simply the answer, there doesn't need to be a question, love is the question that is its own answer.

    Love?

    LOVE!!!

    of course when people are trying to express love and show sincerity and passion, they always go away from love, because there are other words, love doesn't care what you call it, or how it comes across, it just seems to have a knack for coming across in the right way, even when it seems to fail, because the universe hears all, and understands, probably because it (love) is the basis and meaning of existence, and mother of all!!

    You can't be philosophical about Love. It is not a thought, a way, or an action.
    Love is an emotion.
    :love:​

    You can talk about an emotion all you want, but you will never feel the emotion by talking about it. In the same manner the opposite is true. You can feel Love but you can never show it truly by talking about it. Everyone knows this.
    :beatdeadhorse5:​
    So, there is nothing to discuss. Ether Love or get off the pot. Here's the T.P.

    ------

    "What makes love the answer?"

    It's the Only Thing in the universe.
    All else is illusion.
