Wednesday 28th April - Its not love, its insanity

The whole idea behind this blog post is this video by Tom Milsom.
The title is the name of one of the songs i have wrote and you can see it on my bandcamp.

Love. What is it really?

Scientifically it's just a mix up of chemicals in the brain. A rush of emotions in out head that make us feel this unprecedented care for another human being. But is that really love. Because if you boil it down, it's just us. The human race calling out and trying to find somebody else to be a 'partner' with in this world. Animals have partners and mates but do they fall in love, or is it just instinct?

Does that mean love, in its simple form, is just a instinct a primal feeling of needed to be with somebody forever. I don't think so, the cavemen, our earliest ancestors, did they feel love? They lived on the primal instincts alone but did they have love? Did they just see the feeling of love as a mating process just like animals. Is that what love is, is love just an urge to meet somebody and mate, a survival instinct that started all those years ago?

In my opinion and you might think I'm wrong but I think love is whatever you want it to be. It's not just a chemical rush or an instinct, or a primal urge for survival. I think that love is whatever we want it to be. In the last few hundred years love has became more prominent in our lives and therefore we have changed and altered it. Love is different for everyone, we all want different things from it and so we should. We made this emotion, we named it love and we all love by it. Whether we admit it or not is a different thing. But everyone wants love, for one reason or another...

Woah, that got a bit deep didn't it. i wrote that earlier today in school whilst in my free listening to music. I would 'love' to know what you think about this or if you think I am just over thinking it?

Thanks for reading, Video up later

See you tomorrow,
