Is love just chemistry?

[Xan]

What I said to add to Osho's joke was true but not actually funny. Let me try again...

"John kisses me even when I've eaten garlic and I have curlers in my hair."
"Now, that's love."

John left with my best friend and stole my credit cards.
I can't say I love him anymore, but Love Itself loves me now.


I dunno... I'm not that good at jokes.

Maybe you are not that good at jokes, but you seem to be so strong in what concerns your spirituality and will to embrace Life and Love in its every forms. I believe a truly spiritual person is funny and joyful by herself, just by drawing her inner love and spreading peace and serenity to every alive being. You do not need to be good at jokes, at all.

I'm not that good at living. I am always demanding, stressed, I don't think I am the kind of person that others enjoy to be with. I'm not that good with dealing with my emotional charge. I am not that good at letting go. I am not that good at accepting and dealing with loss, pain and frustration. I was that kind of person for whom life had to be perfect and linear. I have learned sometimes perfection comes in circles. Not in a linear, predictable way.

Love, Ligh & Guidance

Leah... If you'll practice getting good at accepting yourself and at letting go, all the rest will fall into place.

I think "LOVE IS LOVE" and cannot be completely contained by words!
Lust is another matter.. depends on what each person is truly thinking :)

I think there is soul recognition from past lives which can enhance love relationships in this life and also think there is just lust.
The notion that love is just chemicals I don't think is right The chemicals are there but this is the physical manifestation an expression of our souls. Our souls are animating our physical bodies.
