Question of The Day February 13, 2013 ~ What Does “In Love” Feel Like?
What does “in love” feel like to you?
There are so many different types of love, so many different feelings that come and go.
There is the love I have for family, with feelings of familiarity, desires to protect and share, a warmth in the chest.
There are the feelings of sexual love. These are the most powerful feelings I have ever felt. The love that I feel for Ailsa is hard to put into words.
At its peak, it just overwhelms all other sensation with a warmth, a tension, an aliveness, a presence, a sense of extreme desire fulfilled. Words cannot do it justice, except to say that it is beyond anything I even imagined possible at age 40.
