The unromanticised Love
Thursday, January 9, 2014
Responsibility, the need to care, is a feeling hard to shake off. Especially when you've held that feeling for the past few years and have invested much time, effort and emotional energy to the attentiveness of the need of the other. Is this love? That one would feel
responsible for the physical and emotional well being of the other, the need to protect, preserve and further another person's happiness and share in her pain? Maybe this is but the evolution of man, the hard wiring in our systems to be
responsible for the people we care about. Or is it an indicator of something more, that for the few people that you genuinely feel responsible for, they are the ones who matter most to you, more than any material things in the world and that it is more than feelings, it is fate. I ponder over my relationships. Have I a soul to be responsible for and in turn have the other take responsibility of mine. If this is love, may I rejoice in the beauty of its human connection and run away from the trap of superficiality.
