But to be fair I have been ruminating a lot on the concept of love…

but not love just in a romantic way which I think we usually associate and affiliate, you know, culturally I think we tend to put that on a pedestal beyond everything else

 

But I think there’s no harm in discussing

and talking about the concept of romantic love because, on the other hand,

you know I do think there’s almost an element of shame, of desiring and wanting

And I think the way that this society can be sometimes, we end up kind of

assuming that people are disposable.

I think acts of love are acknowledgements of another, affirmations of one another -

building each other up

It’s also an opportunity for people to have

each other’s backs and build community together

And from that it can elicit

a whole different type of love

I think love creates love, and you know, we’re all here as a product of love

and we continue to be here day after day for love - for the sake of love

I think we’re more connected to it in our every day lives then we realise

And I think when we’re going through tough times we’re often jaded and it’s not because we feel misery in ourselves, it’s because we feel disconnected

from love…

in a situation that may feel like we’re contorting

ourselves too much to appease whatever environment we’re in

 

And I think, you know, without trying to make things

so intentionally political, it does kind of become an environment where economically it’s all about

the invisible hand - the middle man

But there’s always love as a saving grace,

as an act of salvation.

When you listen to a song that you feel in your heart -

and you feel it literally in your bones - and every fibre of your being

or you’re in the company of an individual and people, community

that makes you feel safe. Makes you feel sure of yourself and good in yourself and acknowledged and

seen and heard and felt

I think that’s a beautiful thing and

I think that’s something that transcends any kind of value

that’s ascribed by like economy and culture

And it’s something that

can continuously be reinvented anew
