Array ( [sid] => 158331 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Abuse of the Word Love [time] => 2010-03-21 16:47:02 [hometext] => Love- a four letter word that means nothing anymore. [bodytext] => Love used to be such a strong word.
A word that meant so much when it was used.
When you heard the word love,
You would think of a rose.
When you heard the word love,
You knew that someone truly cared about someone else.

Nowadays.
Love means nothing.
It is just a word used in everyday conversations.
A word used to get out of trouble.
People say the word when someone is mad at them,
Thinking it will make everything all better.

Love is not a word that should be used lightly.
All the over use of the word love
Has destroyed the effect of the feeling.
A simple "I Love You" means nothing anymore.

So True, in so may ways.
so much Truth in what
you say,.one should never
Tell someone that they
Love them, if they are
unsure.Love is
not a game.

Take care
Fuzzy.

Hi,

You know, I like the strength in your words and I
can feel the anguish tinged with anger - but I must
confess, to live in this world so full of hate, and to
have the word 'love' used only sparingly, fills me
with dread.

Well written, nonetheless.

Tommy
