Thoughts of Love

Love has been on my mind lately.
Not the noun, but the verb, the action of love, the choice.
Pure Logic would lead me to the conclusion that love is pointless,
and hurtful...
but I choose to go on loving anyways.
I've discovered that love isn't something you find, but something you create.
You can't chase after love, you have to make it happen where you are.

Love as a noun:

"But Love is such a Mystery
I cannot find it out:
For when I think I'm best reslov'd,
I then am in most doubt."
- Sir John Suckling

Love as a verb:

"Better to sit at the waters' birth,
than a sea of waves to win;
To live in the love that floweth forth,
Than the love that cometh in."
- George MacDonald

My dog, Merlin, who I love :)
