But love is just a chemical in your brain :? ?
Maybe so but alas I have no clue what its like to "be in love"
Love might be everything but its not going to pay the bills and that is what life boils down to :'( Damn it I am bitter ?
Lust, my friend, is a chemical in your brain.
Love is that redeeming quality that teaches you humility, kindness, generosity and putting another person above yourself.
And it actually does pay the bills - forumites with loved ones (i.e. spouse/kids/pets) know this.
As a man thinketh, so he is. Not to be an @$$, but maybe you just need a change in perspective.
