It's almost an inexplicable thing, because love is in all of the emotions. Love is in the solace I feel when I hug my girlfriend after getting home from a long day of work and classes. Love is when my mother would spank me when I was a little kid because she knew I had to be punished for what I had done, even if she didn't want to do it. Love is the anger you feel when you know someone is being treated poorly, because you realize you have a deep loving for everyone and sympathize with the person being treated poorly. Love is is the joy I feel at the top of a top ridge when hiking, feeling the wind pass by me. It's not that being in love is a singular instance of emotion, but rather, love is in everything and always. What does love feel like to me? It feels like everyday life. Love is in my heart as I type this honestly, and love is in my perception of the world around me.
