You can find out oodles about yourself by smashing your thumb with a hammer as well. LOVE as it is described is much like that hammer. There are people who are trying to find someone with whom to share the care and intelligence and life that they have, but when they go out looking for LOVE, they are attempting to build a house with their thumb in the way. Love, in the less psychotic sense, that thing that, while not as emotionally intense as LOVE, is an amazing emotion in that it does allow a person to build something wonderful. But (to really do damage to this metaphor) with the other tools of the construction.
If Love is the hammer, and it all depends on how you use it, then trust is the cement you pour to create a foundation. Honesty is the wood you use to create the protection that will shield you from the elements. Communication is the nails that will hold it all together and personal hygeine and fashion are the windows the shine light and the furnishings that make it pretty.
LOVE on the other hand is tha hammer that smashes the thumb, the cement shoes that make it impossible to swim out of the depths, the nails that crucify what could have been a wonderful realtionship and the wood that burns under the final screaming days of the witch that was your hopes and dreams.
So be careful, and be honest, and keep your eyes open so that the hammer doesn't turn on you.
