Fall in love like 14 year olds and feel love like 40 year olds

Love, love and love.

This word is always here, there and everywhere. Though, it's everywhere and always exists, still I can not define what love is. For me love is a feeling (so?). Love is not what you THINK that what you feel is love.

Love is something simple (is it?). Then how do you define love?

Let's put the effort to define love aside. I want to go back to the title that I put. Fall in love like 14 year olds (read teenagers) and feel love like 40 year olds (read adults).

For us, as adults, might think that it is kind of odd to see 14 year olds fall in love. What I see when 14 year olds fall in love is that they often blush, they become extraordinarily cheerful when they meet the ones they're falling in love, and they can create beautiful words on paper.
The adults will then say, "Kiddos" But somehow, I like to see the 14 year olds fall in love. They seem to be happy. DOESN'T LOVE MAKE YOU HAPPY? Love always makes you happy. It will never cause you sad or in sorrow or being disappointed.


There's one philosopher that had a theory on what disappointment is. He said, "Disappointment is when you lose hopes and lovers". Love always gives you hope. Love always gives you things that make you happy.

Then what about my saying of Feel love like 40 year olds? I must admit that 14 year olds also have weaknesses when they're in love. They often get disappointed easily because their thinking and their egos are involved. They cried, they yelled, some even committed suicide (wow). But look at the 40 year olds when they get disappointed. They can be so calm and they can be so wise in looking things.

Yet we, as adults, also often mix feelings of what in our mind. Feeling is pure, isn't it?. It is what is in your heart. It is not mixed with our thinking. It’s merely what your heart says.
I would like to keep this in my mind, that Love always makes us happy and nothing else. If we are sad, disappointed or in sorrow, are we really in love?


Let’s be happy in love like when 14 year olds fall in love and be wise in love like 40 year olds.
