I think too many people
equate love with
passionate fireworks,
and while love can certainly
produce this,
it in itself is not love.

Love is more than
a feeling or a fancy,
it is a principle,
a preserver,
a law that governs action
and behavior.

To put it simply,
it's a can of Spam
in the back of the cupboard
that remains good
long after everything
around it has come and gone.
