What is Love?

Through our many discourses, my friends and I have always encountered, particularly, the topic of "love" with some need: Love, already, is difficult matter to discuss, let alone trying to indetify whether its natural or learned. And personally, based on personal experiences and observances, I believe love is a natural/learned emotion, a borderline disciplinary emotion, that instructs one to "commit" to someone or something. And just like any natural emotion or behavior, it can be tweaked, meaning: one has the ability to love or not love. Just like someone has the ability to fight or not fight; get mad or not get mad; cry or not cry.

Love isn't like a thief in the night and just enwraps you suddenly and dialates your pupils leaving you partially blind from the realness of a situation. Love is an emotion -- a power -- that we all have the ability to exhibit towards one another, towards something, or even, a more passionate kind of love, directed towards a special someone -- a mate. Love isn't necessarily a "level" to be reached, inasmuch as it's a "choice" to be made. Of course it be foolish to "love" someone (Love in the traditional, ideal fashion) upon meeting them, but overtime, maybe; after several dates, countless exchanges, and glimpses of a future, that could be, with that particular person, one may make the responsible, conscious decision to "love" another person, wholeheartedly and passionately. See...love is too big of a deal to just be some divine impartation on behalf of the universe and other ethereal ideas. Free will is still something to account for: Love, just like with any other emotion has an according action to follow. What we must learn though is how to control our actions and direct them accordingly and to the right people. Emotions warrant careful calculation because if not, in the case of "love" -- you'll be looking for love in all the wrong places...and expressing it to all the wrong people.

N1993R-Itis


I once thought that the feeling of uncontrollable fatigue after a meal was a paradigm among the black culture. People have referred to this as "Nigger-itis" or "ethnic fatigue" for centuries. The stereo typical hour lunch outing being completed with a 15 minute power nap was a sight that employers have seen for quite some time. It has become so common it's written into your contract when you’re hired, "Anything more than 15 minutes "itis-time" is docked from your pay". It turns out there actually a scientific reason for all of this and its not exclusive to members of the darker nations, we just don’t hide it as well. Apparently, large amounts of blood are diverted away from muscles to the bowel to aid digestion. This would make it unwise for us to try and run and as a defense we feel like resting. Hunger keeps us awake, while sleep aids the digestive process. This is probably the most useful information I’ll ever write.
