Love

 What is the one emotion that has everyone mystified? What is the one emotion that has started as many wars as it has ended? What emotion has had more plays, songs, and stories written about it than anything else? Love, that one emotion that makes enemies into friends and friends into enemies. 

  Love comes in so many different ways , it doesn't appear to be the same emotion at all, but it is. There is so much to love. It can tear people apart and make us do irrational things. What can't this emotion do? It's hard to tell, but there is a lot it can.

  There are so many levels of love. Friendship starts this list . Yes, it doesn't seem like it, but we do feel love towards our friends, this is what helps us get along so well, and why we miss them when we don't see them  for a long time.

  Another tipe of love, is for our siblings and other family members. 

  The third level to love, is the bond that brings man and woman together. This level is the strongest .It is this level of love that has brought together kingdoms into nations in the past, and ended many great wars, It's brought together families that have argued for years and years.

  The last level of love is  bonds  between mother and her children. This bond starts from the very first tiny fluttering of movement and never ends, even after death . Mother protects her children and directs them through life using it as the example to follow. Well, at least it should be. 

  The phrase, love makes the world go round is very true. It's is our driving force, for what ever reason it may be. Poems, plays, and legends can only briefly touch the true meaning of love. We can only feel what that meaning is, and express it in ways only we can understand towards another. The true question we should be asking is not, what is life, but what is love.

  What is love? I don't know, but I'll do what I can to express it to my child , my husband, my family and friends.

  Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle, love is a war; love is a growing up.
