I wanna know what love is

This is a beautiful song that I often listen. The rhythm, the beat and the lyrics are perfectly blended producing a fine tune that touched my heart. The song elevated me to another dimension as if I forgot all the problems and worries on my mind for at least couple of minutes.

Suddenly, I started to think what really love is. Did I catch the message of the songwriter more than the song itself? Do I really know what love is nor I find it?

Love had been the topic since time immemorial. It was defined and redefined throughout every generation. It was written and explained in the bible, poetry, history, etc. With these available facts about love, did I actually perceive the concept of love? Love is hard and deep to fathom. It is an art of itself. The meaning of love to me could be craziness to others. Love cannot be measure and sometimes extend beyond reasons.

In this materialistic world, most often than not, most women look for partners that rich enough to provide them all the necessary things the universe can offer. They disregarded the deep meaning of love per se and settle what could be the best for them in a money-oriented way. This phenomenon is universal and in fact happens to men too. Ironically, our parents advised us to use our intellectual mind in choosing a partner thus always find a gf/bf that is rich. Anyway according to them, love can be learned and it can even be thought. This is a pursuit of richness indeed and full neglect of love and feelings.

Forcing yourself to love a person simply because he or she is rich is undoubtedly painful though, it is an easy way to escape poverty. For those who follow their minds over their heart, I hope love grows into your relationship and produce unshaken foundation in your family. Kudos for those who follow their heart no matter what happen, surely they find and taste happiness in some point of their lifetime.

When I was in College, I hated the subject English. To tell you frankly, I was not really happy to be present in class listening and learning it. It seems that whatever I do to grasp the ideas, grammars and its underlying writing principles it didn’t permanently stay in my mind. I didn’t know why. Every time the teacher asked us to write an essay I begin to stumble looking for words to flow through my pen. Do I lack imagination to paint a picture of words that will convey a story?.

I find it hard to learn the rudiment of English Grammar and this incapacitates me to express my thoughts. But, I am not yet putting the flag down and surrender. I guess it is not yet too late to try learning it. I should read and write more. As they say, practice makes things perfect. With this new technology, all readable things are available with just few hits of buttons on my laptop.

My fear of English Language took me to study accountancy. Well, math is easy and it is an exact science. I find math a straightforward concept wherein when you say one plus one is always two and it will not change. Not like the English Language that I need to deal with regular and irregular verbs. In English when you add S to any noun it will become plural but you need to add s. In contract, the verb supposed to have s whenever the subject related to it is in singular form (first person). Pero teka what is the point posting this. Wala lang gusto ko lang magsulat kahit walang katuturan.
