Hmmmm. Again.

"Love" is just one of those funny words. It has sense, but no reference. When we say, "I love you," each of us knows what that means to ourselves, but have no clue what it means to the loved one. And even though each of us understands that we are feeling an emotion we've chosen to call "love," does that mean it IS?

I can't point at Love and say "there it is." I can't see Love. I can't hear it, or taste it, or touch it with my hands. I can't rub it on my skin or sniff its heady aroma. I can't experience Love in the standard way humans have "experience." There are no prima facie indicators of Love, nor can I prove Love IS or IS NOT with standard logical thought or even logical calculus.

So, I can say, "I love you," and know that feeling to be true (as true as I can know), even if I can't put a precise and proven label on it. It's EASY to say "I love you." REALLY easy. It's easy to believe it. Easy to want it. Easy to discuss it with others, whether it be the nebulousness of it or of being "in it." It's so easy to talk about Love, to think about Love, to hypothesize about Love, to dream about Love, to "feel" Love.

But maybe - just maybe! - Love is something we DO. And that's not easy at all, is it?

Hmmm.

LOVE.

What is it, really?
