Think and Wonder, Wonder and Think…..Oh How I Hate Thinking

So today will be short.  I have had a busy day and not much time to do anything but work until about two hours ago when I sat in car waiting for my son’s practice to finish and then drive home.  Well I thought about love.  What is it?  How do I really know what love is?  How does anyone know what love is?

I can say that other than my kids I have only said I love you to two people.  One being my wife and the second being the other woman.  The weird part is I don’t even really know what it is.  I feel good with both of them (well I used to with my wife and we are getting it back) but they were so different.  I have never said or felt it from my family.  I feel a bond with her family, but is that love.  Maybe you can only feel love and know it is love when it is taken from you or you lose it.  I don’t know.

I know what I feel is different than how I feel for my kids, but if you were to ask me if I who I was in love with I don’t know that I could answer that question.  Can I love more than one person?  Romantically?  Or is one lust and excitement without the hassles of everyday life?

These are all questions I struggle with and don’t have answers.  I am not sure I will ever find the answers.  This is what happens when I have too much time on my hands.  I think and wonder, wonder and think.  It may be a silly thought until you are in a situation like this.
