walking revalations // what is love? // nevershoutnever

you like the way that there seems to be no end to the trees littering the horizon of a late winter's sunset, and the way that the ice flows seemingly effortlessly across the smooth rivers surface. the lights high up on the bridge slowly intensify against the hastily darkening backdrop; some of them flicker lightly. high concentration on the ground you walk on, past footprints fly by; something shines in your eye. you look closer, it's a piece of rounded glass, you pick it up. realizing the dark is coming closer; almost swallowing the land the much lighter land that took place before. you walk in the direction you came from, seeing the same rocks you had before; an almost perfect clam shell lay open beside a proportionately large rock that is seems similar to the size of a small car. you find a difficult, but fast, way up the short cut banks. you walk up the house, and continue to live as you had before you left for your walk. // what is love exactly? a question from my english substitute asked us, if the characters in the story loved each other. i asked myself: well that would depend on ones definition of love is, would it not? i thought about voicing my question, then thought i would re touch on that later. so what is the definition of love? the definition is quite open ended, as the definition is what you make of it. in my mind, to love is to care for. you can love something with out all the bells attached, you don't have to kiss someone to love someone, all you have to do is to care. you're worried about your friend for instance; to me that is a form of love. i have no idea what being in love is. my perspective on it, is a longing for someone, and to me it's an "at first sight" kind of thing; you see someone, and you feel so literally attracted to someone that you almost can't stand not to gravitate towards them. // nevershoutnever!'s new album, "what is love?" inspired my inquisition above. and i thought i would talk about it a bit more, the songs are phenomenal, especially " i love you five " it's my favorite so far, so cheery and happy. :) i enjoy it thoroughly. so, check it out.
