Wednesday,Feb 21st 2007 post 2

I'm so bored,I decided to post another blog entry.

It just hit me seconds ago:How is a friendship forged?
Forge-to form or make,esp. by concentrated effort.

To form or make a friendship by concentrated effort?
Friend-a person attached to another by feelings of affection or personal regard.
Friendship-a friendly relation or intimacy.

So forging a friendship is to form or make a friendly relation or intimacy,and the person whom with you forge a friendship will become a person attached to you by feelings of affection or personal regard.
Regard-to have or show respect or concern for.

I never really delved into casual phrases/remarks.
It's amazing what it really means to forge a friendship,yet who can say that dictionaries are always right about what things really mean/are?

For example,love.
What is love?I have asked many people this same question,they all gave me different answers.They either came up with examples or could not explain it.
Lets find out what the dictionary says.

Love-a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person.
-a feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, as for a parent, child, or friend.
-to have a strong liking for; take great pleasure in: to love music.
-to need or require; benefit greatly from: Plants love sunlight.

Now take a minute to think about it.Ignore the dictionary meanings unless you strongly strongly agree with one/some/all of them.Ask yourself the question "What is love?"
People say "I love you" all the time,or "I love your hair!" or anything with "love" innit,but what do they really mean,and do they really mean it at all,or are they just saying it for fun,or to make you happy,or even to lie to you?
