Those three words

What does it mean when someone says ‘I love you’ to someone?


 
The sentense “I Love You”  is in present tense.


It does not mention anything about future.


It talks about the present time.


It talks about the present situation.


It does not carry any insurance about the coming future.


Is it logical to feel happy about something which does not carry any insurance about future?


Is it wise to celebrate something ephemeral?


What if it means “I will love you in future too”?


It raises bigger questions.


Can anybody assure someone of future and coming events?


Is “I Love You” completely independent of future or upcoming unseen unpredictable events?


Or is it at least resistant to future?


If it is so, it must be something person saying should be 100 % sure about.





Is the person saying “I love you” is sure about ‘I’, ‘Love’ and ‘You’?





If a person is really sure what he is; I mean that he really knows “I”, then probably he/she will be more than an average human.


A monk?


A demigod?

How many of them are really around?

Not many!1


Well, if very few are sure about ‘I’, even less will be sure about ‘you’.

Its always easier to knoe oneself than others.



What about the third word.. ‘Love’?


Is it hormonal?


Is it spiritual?


Is it emotional?


Is it devotional?


Is it sensational?


Is it all of theabove listed?


Is it none of the above listed?


Is it some of the above listed?


What kinds of ‘Love’ can it there which is sandwiched between so not firm, shaken, mysterious ‘I’ and ‘You’?


Is it love in the first place?


Is it possible that these three words whose meaning individually are not clear, not sure, not permanent; when come together can make something clear, sure and permanent?


May be the answer is yes.


After all a complete piece is made up of many incomplete pieces put together.


Is it the case with “I Love You”?


Heart wants to hear yes.


Mind says ‘Are you out of your mind?”.



Whom to listen to?
 
Heart?


Mind?


Mind reasons.


Heart does not.


Heart feels.


Mind does not.


Mind says don’t believe those three words.


Heart asks what’s more believable than this.


Mind or heart?


 That’s the question.


To believe or not to believe?



That’s the question.
