lesson #42: Know what real love means...

ok, in case u dont know, i start from lesson#42 cuz i wanna start fresh but continuin from my other blog.. if i ever got the time, i'll translate all that Indonesian to English.. when i have the time... lets see WHEN that happens...

alrighty, back to my post..
why did i come up with this so-u-think-u-know-bout-love title? cuz i dont fully know... duh..
but it might seem like people who dont know either are acting like they do... maybe it aint wrong.. maybe it is... i aint gonna judge whether u outta know or not... but i was hopin we could use the word with some slightest idea of what in heaven it means... (cuz i cant say "what de hell", right?)

umm.. where do i start?...
ok, lets start from me losing my laptop a loooong time ago (to make things worse, it was near Christmas... what luck)... and endin up bein near to bored-to-death in my hall during holidays... findin myself without computer games to knock myself out, i figured i'd try new things on the web (decent ones, dude... chill..)..

so i went to Yahoo! (yeah, i did..trust me)... and my curiosity drove me to click on Yahoo! Answers.. (click sound)..

and there they were: questions of all sorts.. from everywhere, from everyone, to be answered by anyone... and they were all neatly categorized so u could put or answer a question according to the categories... they also got this point system where u get points for loggin in, answerin people's questions, and u gotta use ur points if u wanna ask a question.. and the asker can choose the best answer.. and the guy whose answer was deemed best will be rewarded with more points!

so i was curious... what do people ask?
and man, they ask A LOT... new questions come every minute... from around the world...

so bein the Mr I-think-I-know-a-lotta-things, i went to look at the list of categories.. clueless at all the technical categories, i clicked on somethin i thought i know a little of (tho i might be really wrong) : Family & Relationships.

dude, there're really a LOTTA questions (sorry for the repetition)... so i looked at some questions.. and after figurin i might have a clue on some stuff, i started to open the questions... and, not surprisingly, 98% (dun worry, i didnt count) of them mentioned the word love...

"Does he love me?" "Is this love?" "I think I'm in love" "Is there such thing as true love?"
funny?...kinda.. but u know, at least they asked... so i answered them with what i know... and of course, bein the Christian that i am, i gotta be answerin them accordin to the stuff i know bout Christianity...

i answered more... and more... and went on to answerin things bout unfaithful girlfriends, crushes, arranged marriage and all sortsa stuff... and by the end of the holiday, ive gotten a quarter of my answers chosen as best answers... interestin, i thought.. what in heavens did i say?.. since when do i know stuff bout love n relationships?... (again, for ur info, ive always been a single.. and i havent been successful in any boy-girl relationships)

my point?
a LOTTA people dont know what real love is... they havent a clue what it means to love n be loved... and sometimes, they gotta ask other people who dont know it either... and man, i got kinda tired answerin different people who're askin roughly the same questions... (and i dont use templates.. they aint personal..)

so if we havent got a spark of what love is, lets find an answer... and once we do, then i think its only right that we start tellin people out there what love is... they need answers...

Know what real love means, then start lettin others know about it too.
