There are so many terms without a definition, we can find one in dictionaries, but we may not agree with it. Take for example the word spoon, if we search it on the dictionary we find a definition that is suitable, which is “a utensil used for eating”, but in the case of emotions it gets a lot more complicated to give a meaning, and when it come to the term of love it get impossible to generate a definition that would give a meaning to the word. The reason of this is simple, how can we give a meaning to a word that express so many emotions and that at the end of the day, it has a different meaning to every person.

It is a universal discussion about what love is and what that word means, I know what it is supposed to mean but I still have not experience the emotion to identify the meaning and what this emotion make me do and feel.  I have had people around me that have a meaning of what the word is, and what makes a funny story is that it has a different meaning for everyone. For instance a person says that love is the emotion that makes you feel happy all the time, meanwhile another compares it to what the alcohol in you’re body provokes. For me, I have the picture on my mind that Love is an emotion you feel when words don’t seem to feat anymore. According to society you can love many things, but you may only love one person.

In literature the statement of only one love is explored in many different novels, starting with authors like Jain Austin, William Shakespeare, or someone more modern such as Nicholas Sparks.  All this great writers talk about what the emotion is expressed on relationships, exploring the idea of only one true love. But I believe there can be many great loves, taking under consideration that love is a interaction of molecules in our body, we may experience more than one love in our lives.

How are we supposed to give a meaning to a word that makes us see life a little happier and that can devastate us when we stop feeling it, how are we suppose to summarize a word into simple lines when the emotion is so strong the stupid things makes sense. Love has no meaning, but the amazing thing about this is something new for all of us, we may experience it in so many different levels that keeps us on the edge of our seats to see what happens next, ant the best part, is that you get to experience it with someone.
