Hard to find, and to keep it alive

It's not a thing, but an illusion and it's hard to keep it up for long~

Hmmm

If love is an illusion it is the only one worth having

*like*

Ocean, love is the only one worth living for...

So twila you’re saying it’s an illusion but also the only thing worth living for? Rather you said only ONE... so only one out of what all?? And if it’s an illusion then why keep it on such a pedestal....
Your words seem like two opposite ends of the same spectrum~~

Lev... well there are all kinds of love...
Love of stuff is a thing too
So I guess love in the more general term is for everyone~~

Unless we are talking about romantic or platonic love(which I guess is being implied here...)
But the pessimism on the topic here >_>
Welps!!

Lonci, think about Dualism.

Some things can’t coexist....

Like?

Vacuum and atmosphere~~

XD

Hm, though at that aspect while waiting for a hitch ride.

I think that only few people can experience love; that's because love implies a lose of self for a period of time. To 'lose' yourself, your self sense means that the person will gain such importance in your life that you'll forget, ignore or lose your awarness for some time.

To some, that's easily done that for others. In a way, it's kinda easy do develop affection for someone, if that person is on your liking, if his/her behaviour completents you and if you have common interests or goals. Sometimes, you begin to love someone for who he/she and that's because I strongly believe that anyone and everyone can change. The difficulty is given by the fact that it's hard to find how.

That needs a powerfull understanding of the inner world of the person. The girl who offered me a ride was interesting, kinda open, but, at the same time a bit strange. Strange because she seemed to have some good traits, but, at the same time.. her traits were contradictory and showed a bit of short sightness.. not that mine's bigger.

Mate, I'll always believe that love is an incomprehensible chemical reaction inside our brain, numerous possibilities click together to fire the neurons in such a way as to imprint a certain face or voice or touch upon our consciousness so that IT becomes our only goal worth living, the pivotal point of our existence.

One may believe that mentally, however i doubt you can consistently live like that as a driving truth. Unless of course you tell your family all that you think of them is caused by chemical reactions )

xD
It's very difficult to accept the theory of chemical reactions~

If it can't be lived out it is only that a theory.because while love does involve genetics and other factors. It is first and foremost a act of will that carries into actions towards others and corresponding emotions

Even human will is controlled by the neurons...

Sorry, for once I have to disagree)

Disagreement is at the root of advancing any argument, so it's fine. Carry on~

Everyone except for lev are splitting atoms here~~

Not really

Splitting and fusing. That's the fun of philosophical arguments.

How I used to love doing these a few months back...
It’s true that philosophy is a rich man’s playfield or someone who has renounced the worldly realm~~

Devil's playground inside an idle brain~

Philosophy is useless unless it affects everyday living

Well sometimes it’s better to talk straight instead of in tangents n circles~~~
It’s a pity that most philosophers choose the latter~~

Ocean, how do you want it to affect everyday living?

Lonci, lol

whatever i believe scientifically, philosophically or otherwise if it does not direct my actions, words, emotions ,and the entire way of life it is useless and not worth a piece of lint i picked from my toes) that is what I mean

Ocean, ofc what I believe guides me through my journey in life. That's where science and philosophy merge into spiritualism.

Lonci, some things can't be explained in a 'straight' way.

Others can be~~
