do you know billie holiday's "Comes Love?" Billie knows how love twists your life around, and no matter what you do, you fall into love. She gives you a knowing wink, they only say love is a good thing, but really it's the most frightening thing in the world, and you can't avoid it. The Pet Shop Boys' "Love Comes Quickly" approaches the same haunting, that love is always hiding behind the door you thought just closed, a ghost about to drape you in its charms. You can solve a toothache, weather a depression, get away from a heat wave, or chase a mousey with a broom, but "comes love, nothing can be done."
of course, i say some of this in jest, or just confusion, because, as I've said before, I am not clear on what love for an individual is. I am trying to understand love as a concept, as an action, as a way of life to accept and care for everyone. here's a beautiful cartoon I found through jhames's link site: mend your heart with the thread of love
