Define LOVE

What is LOVE?

Ah, countless philosophers, sages and Sufis have attempted to decipher this for eons... But what d'ya know---a bunch of grade six pupils of Divine Word College of San Jose, Occidental Mindoro had contributed their own take on this subject matter.

Contributions which they wrote on a "slumbook" many years back and which I am now sharing with you here. (Please don't kill me...I copied it word-for-word...well, plus a few comments).

Arnel says:

"Love is surrounded by water,

which no one can enter

except your lover"

(Ang corny! Buti na lang nag-rhyme!)

Yen says:

"Love exist in our heart"

(Ahh, doon ba iyon?)

Joan says:

"The measure of love

is love without measure"

(Sobrang lalim--- 'di ko maarok!)

Rica says:

"Love is part of your life"

(Sige na nga!)

Amy D. says:

"Love is an imitating

of two person, two heart

enchange"

(Huh?)

Portia says:

"Love is a flower that grows

and blossom w/o the aid of season"

(Hmm, talagang pang-"slumbook", ha?)

Arlene C. says:

"Love is life.

They who do not love

are not alive"

(Ang taray!)

Toby says:

"Love is like an hamburger

that has everything on it"

(Ang takaw!)

Onyoy says:

"Love is the way to be married

and the hearts are tied together"

(Ang sakit!)

AND FINALLY...(drumroll, please!) the most profound entry comes from Trina G.:

"Love is a feeling

when you eat a banana"

(No comment.)
