Love is merely a cocktail of fantastic hormones, that makes it easier for us to form family units, give birth and take care of helpless, demanding infants. It's also one of the driving forces behind a pack, as are generosity, empathy and altruism. These emotions ensure more likely survival for the whole of the pack. Anger, rage and those kind of emotions are not evil, they bring equally powerful displays of feelings as love. I actually find excessive PDA equally repulsing as violent outbursts, but that doesn't make either of them evil :p
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
