So my friend, wrote this piece about love, and it was so typically expected from her and I did try to ignore it, but I cannot.
You see, some people are allowed to go around with idealistic notions of life. She is one of them. This will very inevitably scale into a war, but I gotta say. Love is just a chemical illusion.
When a mother bears a child, she has natural instincts to preserve the race, mankind. So she will feed the child, keep it warm, and in these intellectually competitive world, help it get an education, try and make the circumstances just right for the child to grow up into an adult who has the capacity to survive, and produce offspring of its own.
When a man, is nice to a woman, it is the same instinct playing its part in it. He want s her to like him long enough to mate with him and produce offspring.
When friends are good to each other, they are doing so because they know they will need each other for survival someday.
I bet you can punch a few holes into my theories, but I refuse to place myself at the mercy of some chemical illusion of both well being and dependence. I want to believe that I can make my own decisions on the things that do matter in my life.
If I give, I want to give, because I want to.
If I marry, I want to marry because I want to.
if I have a child, I want to have a child because I want to.
I don’t want all the things to be governed by a feeling that then dissipates, or even worse, one I regret, or are ashamed to be identified with just a few years later.
My friend says that being in and out of love, is part of being young, that time brings stability and reason…
