. . . to put it into words . . .

a study of words we keep using

. . . A fear is no longer a fear if you don't fear it . . .

 

 

. . . Is love really a love if it can't grow . .

 

 

. . . Sound isn't heard unless it is felt . . .

 

 

. . . Politeness is scapegoat for jealousy / anger / revenge . . .

 

 

. . . You cannot choose who you fall in love with you can only love them . . .

 

 

. . . Does love end in death? - Simply no . . .

 

 

. . . The thin line between love and hate - what would be its name? - fear . . .

 

 

. . . What is the outcome of falling in love? Some say "respect" others "managing", I say harmony . . .

I absolutely have great respect for peices like this one. So much thought, so much meaning all expressed in the simplest of ways. A simple path that hits your heart and mind in places that make you feel and think about what is being delivered by the writer.
WELL DONE!!

This is so thoughtful, pouring with wisdom, I couldn't help but think and agree with every truth you have talked about here. I loved the twist in words, made it enjoyable to read, and also analyze about the words, and how right you are. These words that you have written here, are words that I would like to remember, so powerful, and motivational. Great job.

* your claim - ACHIEVED IN APPARENT INTERNAL HARMONY for the state of "falling in love," ...

[HulyaY]

Your conceptualization of love in the last line is unconventional in that it introduces an anti-cliche, and I like that creativity very much. Furthermore, your definition of it reminds me of Dalai Lama's view in which he claims 'love for someone must exceed the need for that same someone' (not his exact words). How can we even think to achieve "harmony" -your claim for the state of "falling in love", if we can't raise our 'need' for the one we love above our 'love'? I hope I am not misreading your concepts here but these are some of the emotions, thoughts and deliberations your beautiful words instilled in me.

This makes me think!

me thinking can be dangerous, every time I leave my philosophy class I confuse myself with questions such as these

well written I must say.

OMG! you get that all words with diction are really [undefined] too! no. way.
A nice read and relateable. The world seems a bit too fake and changing some days, I have to wonder if anything is known, then again, the philosoph is cursed isn't he? Well written and well pondered as usual Thomas. Thanx for writing XD
btw there are a few edits in there you might want to get.
