Often defined and rarely understood
By Jessica Sanders
Skiff Staff
Love
is confusing.
Both
a noun and a verb, the English word love can describe
feelings for a significant other, devotion to a friend or affection
toward a pet.
When
Valentines Day rolls around, it becomes difficult to escape
this mysterious human emotion.
I think people mistake feelings for love, said Kimberly
Hopper, a freshman speech communication major. I dont
think love is about feelings its a commitment. If a
relationship is built on only feelings of love, then its not
love at all.
To
make matters worse, love is also complicated as a part of speech.
When
Greek was being translated into English, all the
Greek versions of the word became love because the English
language doesnt have verbs for words such as friendship. People
substitute love because it is versatile as both a noun
and a verb, said Daryl Schmidt, chairman of the religion department.
full story
Love
is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast,
it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it
is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love
does not delight in evil but rejoices with truth. It always
protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
1 Corinthians 13:4-7 (NIV)
