Love

Yes, love. Love is the word of the day. Today in class you had the class raise their hand if they had been hit my the gold arrow of Cupid.


Looking around the room I noticed no one was eagar to admit they past tense or present tense fallen into deep love with another. Even I consider myself to have found love and didn't jump at the opportunity to share. But then you asked the class to raise their hand if they had been hit with the lead arrow of Cupid. A dozen or so hands raised as my classmates admitted to dodging love.




This made me wonder, why were people embarrassed to admit they have loved another, but not so when admitting to denying others' love. Personally I think it all boils down to vulnerability and the humans natural instinct to avoid feeling rejected.
