Love

Well here goes...
Bubba and I have been married for almost 8 years. It seems to me that over the past years that some bits of wisdom and often some stupidity have occured. If you look close at marriage you will find an intricate webs of communial living.It is the mass of blending male and female into one space that creates an organized confusion that we all call love. Love... now there is a big broad word that means about a million different things.

To love is to give all of oneself. By this definition, we can surmis that love is devotion, benevolent, tender....
But what is love....It is more than the mere act of love. It is an creation of feelings and passions. It relates the giving up of ones own self for that of another. If we love we care and if we care, we want to be happy and if we are happy, then we want to love and the cycle is repeated.
