Feelings of Love: A mystery

Feelings of love are something we did not know, have not known, maybe never know...

"When you're in love you never really know whether your elation comes from the qualities of the one you love, or if it attributes them to her; whether the light which surrounds her like a halo comes from you, from her, or from the meeting of your sparks." - Natalie Clifford Barney

How many of us have been fooled by the feelings of love? There are so many classical sayings talking about love, traditional or non-traditional. The recent fashionable one goes like this: I love you not because who you are, but because how you make me feel about myself when I am with you. The chemistry between two lovers is unnamable and complicated. Sometimes it is just a matter of particular timing, particular mood, particular gestures that make feelings of love so right. But all above said are illusory and changeable that make love unpredictable and extremely vulnerable. But how many of us will reflect and realize it?

In reality, we really need to look into our hearts closely: what we love, and what we are seeking for from the object of love, because all outside influences will go wane sooner or later, just like the weather of today, the ripples over the lake, the wind from nowhere. We cannot stay forever at a particular point of time in a particular set of environment. Life changes, so does the love, which is dependent on our fleeting life.

We all create reality by our own making.....
