Something Light?

You said you wanted something light--light like Love. Since when has Love been light? Light things blow away in the wind, they break easily, and leave little impressions. That doesn't sound anything like Love. Love is that incredible feeling within your chest, like a huge breath of living air that keeps on coming, something alive, a fire, and a brilliant, radiant light shining out from inside. Love is the life and spirit of you jumping out. Love is what causes the sides of your mouth to curl uncontrollably, for you to dance for no reason, and what allows you to see the world as a better place. Love makes us better people--it results in spontaneous giving, undying compassion, selfless sacrifice, and unbridled happiness. Love is the most powerful and awe-inspiring condition within the human heart. Love is the driving force behind all that we wish to be as people. Love is what allows us to thrive.
You call that light?
