Phenomenology of love
Saturday, July 23, 2005 |

Love n./ A strong, complex emotion or feeling causing one to appreciate, delight in, and crave the presence or possession of another and to please or promote the welfare of the other. Correct me if im wrong.. but that`s the meaning of love itself according to my pericardium. Love is like the wind, you can`t see it but you can feel it. familiar?! Oh yes, landon carter`s famous line in the movie A walk to remember. I hate being mushy and it`s my veeery first time to compose something about this so-called intense feeling. Not because of my mediocrity but because people often write about it.. its they`re commonness, their weakness and their cure. Yes, writing about their inner emotions or holistically speaking, their inner being. But right now, I will try to be a part of them. When you believe you`re inlove, you`re not just the person you think you are. Agree?! Yess.. Im currently entering the Sphere of ambiguity. Here I go again, letting the whole wide universe know what Im feeling right now. Feeling of being valued and loved by someone. Not just someone. Coz this someone is special. More special than you think you are. So, you think you`re special?! no, .not really.. he`s someone you don`t know but I knew him and I loved him by heart. someone I cared for the most. A part of me was drained because of loving. haha! He makes me sane. He makes me cry, ilove him. I don`t know why. I don`t have a reason why I love him.. well, just last night, im trying hard to figure out why I sooo love this guy (insert my kuya`s name here) then.. I came up with nothing. not a single answer. All I knew was I love him. I love him and I love him. that`s all. Then I gazed up on the ceiling then generate my mind.. at last, there was an answer threw by someone up there.. `I don`t need any hysterical reasons why I love this person.` Tsss..see?! there are of course pessimistic reactions to this optimism, I believe. Man is always seeking to understand himself. Understand in the sense of what he wanted, what God wanted and what he loves for being wanted. Wanted to love that is. I suppose I should`ve wasted my time in writing this than writing or critiquing other people`s way of interpreting ideas. Anyhoo.. going back to the issue of love or loving.. life`s too short.. so if I were you.. love. Just love. What I say about truth would require many precautions and implies a long itinerary. All we need is love. Pweh. Labo! But its super true. Nevertheless, I never confuse truth with fact, truth is not a fact. The difficulty is not in dying for your love but finding a love worth dying for. Truth is the quality of statement, an intuition related to something which you might call a fact but truth is not a reality. It`s the best feeling in the whole world. Let me try and formulate this more thoroughly. Knowing that you are indeed valued by someone you hold on to. Shox! it could turn your world upside down or as if you`re doing that stupid marquee behavior trying to analyze how it worked or how the spark began. my feelings can't stop on its own unless it evaporates.. you can`t blame me. you`re there to set up the fire in my soul. I`m grateful that you don`t want to cut me in two. Existing in this abyss world, im thankful that someone like you came and rescued me. such a lifesaver. No words can express how much Iloveyou.
Once again,
Thank you and I love you for being corny,
for being my kuya and my bestfriend rolled into one,
for being there for me 24/7,
for listening to my ka-cornihan,
for teaching me how to play billiards,
for singing songs for me,
for putting a smile on my face,
for letting me know that I am somehow special though I believe I`m not,
for every little things (not to mention the big ones..)
for being my guiding light in the dark,
for being my twisted sunshine,
for giving me strength,
for being my inspiration,
and for loving me...
you complete me.

I live because I love.
I love you sooo much, andre laureles sandiego.
