What is love?

Woah, Soup. You’re getting way over my head here. To me, it’s not something that can be described with words.

Is there only one kind of love? Mother, father, wife, friend, … all the same?

Not to my mind. Like I said, I can’t analyze it, take it apart, dissect it, parse it. But it’s all different. Maybe there’s as many kinds of love as there are people in your life. I really don’t know.

How does one recognize love?

You feel it. Call it the warm fuzzy feeling you get when you’re near someone you love and/or who loves you. It’s an intellectual exercise beyond my capabilities to describe.

D#1 won an award as the “Student of the Year” for her graduating class. I was proud. I was happy for her. And as she received the award, I felt a surge of fatherly love.

Doesn’t mean I don’t love her at other times, but sometimes it just floods over you.
