Tina Turner asked "What's love got to do with it; is it just a second hand emotion?" I have been pondering this myself for a while now. What exactly is love? Is it an emotion fueled by chemicals and hormones or is it simply evolutions way to keep human kind creating more humans?
Family love - is this just really attachments built upon years of interaction or is it love? Love for friends, again is this really just something that keeps us from completely fading from life or is it seeking attachments that were unmet during your life time?
In reflecting back on my life, past loves and those that have passed, I am seeking to find whether or not the people in my life at these times were those I loved or just people that I knew? People that I merely grew an attachment to.
So when you take away the fairy tales that our parents gave us about love and family, when you take away the sex and are left with nothing more than hormones and chemicals - whose to say that love isn't nothing more than a fairy tale.
I think it is nothing more than hormones and chemicals...
What would love have to do with that?
