the power of love

to do what cant be done
to sing what cant be sung
to learn to play the game
to make the things that cant be made
to save those who cant be saved
to learn how to be in time
to know what isnt known
to see what isnt shown
to be where youre meant to be


all you need is love to do the abovementioned things, among others. but why? because for some, this is what makes someone truly human. to exceed the limitations of the human intellect. to do what cant be understood but only felt. to make what cannot be taught but can only be experienced. to have love within oneself is to be overwhelmed by a supremely beautiful emotion and be intoxicated by a personal and profound sense of being which the human intellect cant possibly give. love is way beyond human comprehension. this is why it seems that it is the human tendency to acquire love.

the question is, is it meant for everybody? is everyone capable of truly acquiring love in the proper sense. because although love is beyond human comprehension, it is still determinable or identifiable. you still need a little bit of intellect to recognize what love is. and little more of this human intellect to confirm it is love in its truest form and not just a shoddy emotion trying to pass itself as love. i think most people are deceived by this inferior emotion. or do not fully understand or are not truly capable of handling love. love is a powerful creature and despite its beauty, its also capable of destroying those who are not prepared to have it. love is not only about the euphoria it brings because it can also inflict a tremendous and also overwhelming amount of pain. for some, the pain is unimaginable, even unbearable. to seek love is to prepare to wrest control over its beautiful side and its dark side.

to love is to do something that is highly personal and cannot be passed to another person. it is doubtful it can be learned but i think it can be understood to at least obtain some form of control over it. much as people want not to control love so as to not to limit its power, i think control over it is a necessity. something as powerful as love should not be allowed to just take over oneself and let go of everything else. and if im not mistaken, no human has achieved the level of being an epitome of love. it seems to me that its impossible to allow love to take over and not be destroyed by it. maybe because its humanly impossible to contain love in a mortal physical being in a very loose manner, not influenced by human intellect. love in this case resembles the behavior of cancer cells. it will slowly destroy you from within if you dont try to exercise some form of control over it. to let go of the human intellect and refuse to limit the love contained within is like to abandon reason and dwell in realm of the irrational. this is the best way to lose yourself and most likely never come back. to live in a constant state of internal chaos and not realize it. to be lost in a destructive delusion and be ignorant of its harmful effects.

i just stated what seems to me is something obvious. but then again, humans have the tendency to forget or miss the obvious. they gamble anyway and seek love and acquire it without preparing for what it can bring into one's life. they indulge in it, sometimes without any inkling of the consequences. my point is, love is not for the ignorant. even if most people want to have love in their lives, it will destroy those who are weak and unprepared, meaning those who are not worthy to have it. love can only be enjoyed by those who deserve it.
