I find science depressing. It aims to leave no room for the unexplainable. It has no room for love. No place for fun and no openings for Santa Clause. And our earthy science rejects the idea of anything bigger then use simply because ..we cannot see it. Science has even tried to dumb love down to nothing more then chemical reactions in the space between our ears. Many years ago people believed in magic. and those beliefs made life worth living. The mystery, the fun, the intense impulse to explore the unknown. LOVE. We waited for things because people were having fun imagining what it could all mean and what the future could bring. Instead of plans we had dreams… Hope… Faith. Everyday was an adventure. But now life is nothing more then a calculated event. Society picks your course. The dollar compels you and love is pushed to the side for other endeavours.  

Why do we fight so hard to know all there is to know about everything? do you not remember being a child? We knew so little and our world AMAZED us! Each color was an EVENT and each emotion was something new to be explored. We were innocent and FUCK we were happy! Our days were made when we were allowed a piece of chocolate! but now we feel as though we are entitled to that candy. It’s not an experience… just part our greasy north american diet. Remember believing in Santa Clause? We didn’t care that we had never seen him.. we were so damn obliged to believe in him because the IDEA of him was such a great thing. The magic of our world drove us each day. But then science explained to us that magic can’t exist… love is not real and after all your earthly effort you will be met with… nothing. Our innocents gone we were left with a world that looked to be about 50 shades of dismal. 

I’m not rejecting science. I like science. It keeps us healthy and makes life easier for so many people in so many ways. I just don’t feel that everything NEEDS an explanation. I am happy in my world of innocents. Dreaming and imagining the possibilites. I refuse to let science define love or magic to me. To let science tell you that something cannot exist is a far worse crime than letting someone dream that it can. To believe that only what we can explain is real is far more foolish than to accept the idea of something we cannot. The greatest things in life are unexplainable, intangible things.

Should I tackle answering a question that has no real answer. Should I try to use words to form an understanding of the non-understandable. Should I splatter my views on love on a webpage though I know tomorrow my views may be completely changed by another experience. Sure I should. It’s my blog. 

If I had to define love I think my best go would be sound something like this:

Love; Everything else. 

But it has no definition. It exists outside if time. It exist within nothing else and nothing else exists in it. Its un-expainable, Scientist will try to give it some hormonal/biological backing but they will ALWAYS fall short of understanding this amazing thing. It really makes NO sense, but we are ok with that. It comes, and sadly often times it goes. You can’t ask questions about it because there are no answers. You might try to ask where to find it, how to make it last, or why you would want it. All these things have no answers! It’s the greatest thing in the world! … But it can be extremely painful. When being searched for you’ll never find it. If you over think it you will lose it. It has no age restraint and no boundaries. it is blind, def, and mute. It is a personal bond, that should be shared with the world. It can make people do crazy, non-rational, stupid things, Because it is the opposite of rational. It’s simple. It cannot be controlled, It will do as it pleases. It what makes us human.

I could ramble for years, because there is no limit. But I assume I have your attention for only so long, so i will end with that for today. Have the incoherent, badly written, words of this kid helped to bring anyone to a closer understand of love? No. Noting ever will. 

But that’s just my world and how I perceive it.
