Just Listen

i was asked once , how i felt about the word love . i looked the person in the eye and spoke these words ! sir,im very young nearly fifteen .i know there are people out there that believe love can only be felt by grown ups but , i am very young and i feel alittle ounce of love at least once a day . no my lips do not touch a mans everyday . no i do not hug another individual everyday . but love is not a act . it is a feeling , a strong feeling . not transferred by the act of touch but by act of being there . love is more of a energy then a force of nature . energy can be transfer in many different ways , as in so can love .but sir you asked me how i felt about the word love . well first i would have to explain what love is to me .love is the smile that a pears as soon as you read a message from a friend . love is when your lonely and you call a friend and they sit on the phone for ten hours because they dont want you to be lonely that is love .love is when you dont have to speak to know what is going through there head that is love . so you asked me again how i felt about the word love , well i have not one answer but many ,without love , evil would be the only thing left .

Very well said here, Brittany. Love is defined by each of us and the scars it can leave behind.
