Love... Ha!

          I don't believe in a pure definable form of love. On the contrary, as I think that um, love is undefinable. I believe that it is merely a concept that we, as humans have created to justify a natural feeling that we partake in when we find someone of the opposite sex to be attractive. I realize that I am still only sixteen years old and that maybe, just maybe I could be wrong about this, but I believe that if I am wrong I am at least close; because, what is the human race but just a glorified and altogether privileged animal? We all have natural feelings that other animals have that we sometimes can't explain but since we have a mind unlike most animals', that can reason and think too a much further extent, we feel that we have to have a reason for the these feelings that we feel. We try to logically explain things in a way that we can accept. Animals on the other hand, don't think twice about it. They feel and they act.  Humans feel, think, and then act. Were it not for this, we would be just as special or unique as any other animal on earth. It is not a secret that humans have an enlarged thinking and reasoning capacity compared to most animals, and I state this assuming that you already knew, but I believe people don't understand that this is why we must make up explanations for things that we can't explain logically. According to the way our mind works when we think about things, the things we think about should make sense or it should make sense to act on them. But sometimes our more common instincts and natural feelings are unreasonable or unexplainable. So in order to cope with this, humans glorify these natural and basic feelings. They put them on a pedestal and give them a special name and place in the human order of life. Love is one of these many feelings. The initial attraction somebody feels towards someone else is a mere chemical reaction in their own head. What follows is a bond created in the time spent with the person that you've become attracted to. You can say there is something special about this feeling all you want, but what it really comes down to is the way that the human body was designed to act and react to its environment. This environment includes other human beings. To say the least, we have made a mysterious fog out of something that didn't need to be clouded at all, and in conclusion the only thing special about the natural instincts a human can feel is that we, unlike most animals, don't know what to do with them.
