Love is only a feeling

The Darkness - Love is only a feeling

The first flush of youth was upon you when our eyes first met
And I knew that to you and into your life I had to get
I felt light-headed at the touch of this stranger's hand
An assault my defenses systematically fail to withstand

'Cause you came at a time
When the pursuit of one true love in which to fall
Was the be-all and end-all
Love is only a feeling
Drifting away
When I'm in your arms I start believing
It's here to stay
But love is only a feeling
Anyway

Oh, the state of elation that this unison of hearts achieved
I had seen, I had touched, I had tasted and I truly believed
That the light of my life
Would tear a hole right through each cloud that scudded by
Just to beam on you and I

Love is only a feeling
Drifting away
When I'm in your arms I start believing
It's here to stay
But love is only a feeling
Anyway, anyway

Love is only a feeling
Drifting away
And we've got to stop ourselves believing
It's here to stay
'Cause love is only a feeling
Anyway
* i love this song almost way too much. truly. i feel a lot for not only the lyrics but also the emo sounds of the bass guitar. the choice of words gave the song an incredibly believeable meaning. saying "anyway" personally is to cease further explaination. i guess it's just very me to stop producing more words when i'm frustrated. the introduction and end to the song is marvellous. music make known everything. it says, "goodbye, i don't believe in love for now." (in my opinion)
so is love only a feeling? perhaps it may sound immature but sometimes, you just think it like something intangible/invisible that it's just a passing wind. what's with the fast heartbeat? cupid at work? what's it with the playing miss green eye? when you see couples laughing happily? what's it with saint valentine that you see ladies accepting roses and gentlemen smiling as they received their gifts? and not forgetting Christmas... the season of love where love is all around. then you really hope that someone special spends the day with you.
sounding sad? not at all. i'm not really looking for love. i'm waiting for love and i shall seize the opportunity when the angel of love strikes. and that isn't gonna be easy. for one thing, i don't know what is right for me.

love comes in many forms though. love from family. love from friends. love for pets. above all, love from the big guy above.
anyhow, listened to what a friend said about love. i think the past is sweet however, it's not ever gonna be the same. i can testify that. i can only say time is a good teacher.
alrighty, that's all for now. love your neighbour. :)

Personal Perspective on CHC Fiasco

My personal perspective on the City Harvest Church fiasco: #1. God is omnipresent (present everywhere), omnipotent (all powerful), omniscient (all knowing) and God knew about this episode. I believe God is watching.; #2. The CAD does not charge without concrete evidence (they have taken sufficient time to investigate - 2 years). May justice prevail.; #3. It is unavoidable for members of the public with little information about Christianity to judge.  It is also one of my weaknesses to be quick to judge/form negative impression about others, which is unhealthy.; #4. I believe to a certain extent, the message of giving and tithing is relatively strong in City Harvest Church - I may be wrong.  (fyi, I have visited the church a couple of times) My personal belief is that it is important to give to God because God is the creator of everything that exists. He owns everything and we are simply stewards of what we have been entrusted with.  Though I h...

Acquaintances with Benefits

When I was young (in upper primary), my birthday wishes were similar.  It was to have many friends.  That could be due to the fact that I am an only child and may feel lonely at times.  Thanks to my best friends (you know who you are), I seldom feel lonely.  I can easily identify who my best friends are.  They are people I would ask for opinions on important decisions I have to make, meet relatively regularly (at least bimonthly, quarterly) for chit-chat and my life would have been very different without them. According to Robin Dunbar , in order to maintain stable social relationships where an individual knows who each person is, and how each person relates to every other person.  Friends are essentially different from acquaintances.  Acquaintances are typically: #1. People whom you may have only met a few times at an event/function; #2. Classmates/schoolmates/coursemates you have encountered casually; #...

Outlier

It is always amazing meeting outliers. One who respectfully defies what ageing means in recent decades.  It is awesome to encounter a senior (almost twice my age) who is fitter than me. So inspiring! She embodies the example of good stewardship and living well in the last trimester of life 🧓🏻💛
