LOVE AND LOGIC


Am I adopting or adapting ideas?
Do I welcome ideas as my own or do I form-fit and refine the individual?

...Am I the individual? Or the persona?


I'm in a daze right now. The closer I get, the more distant I feel. Where I draw the thin line between one abstract thought and the next, people see one haze of gray and neutrality. Pushing those boundaries offer so much more color, even in grayscale.




Lately, I've been feeling like I'm made of questions. I get by day to day by just living to be young, enjoying friends, sharing love... But when even love is questioned, as it is the answer, why does it often end up being an indefinite obscurity? Tonight we established love to be subjective. To go hand in hand with logic. Up for interpretation. As is everything else, even the one thing you know to feel will last forever.

Knowing it is true. Feeling it is true. Trusting it is true.

Here's where I become the hypocrite:
There are fine lines between all three, but why can't they be one and the same for something as beautiful, as Romantic, as powerful as love?

Because love is subjective. Love is logical. Love is... up for interpretation.
There is something right, yet so horrid about that claim. (Claim, because if everything is up for interpretation, Truth cannot exist). But if Truth does exist... if we know Truth, if we feel Truth, and we trust that the Truth is and always will be true... where can it be found?

"There is truth in love, love is true," I've heard so many times. Maybe there are different names for the same thing.

There is so much I don't say. So here's to not giving a fuck! :]

This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers (1 John 3:16). And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him (1 John 4:16). Jesus answered, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me" (John 14:6). And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity (Colossians 3:14).
