Need/Love

People sing all kinds of songs to make money, to vent their feelings on a variety of issues, to identify with a certain thing or group, to stand out as an individual...and in some crazy way to some how make others happy or comfort them in their time of grief or need...

Need...I need you in my life, you are the air that I breathe, I can't live without you, I'm so lost without you..need, need, need.

Is this the truth? Will I suffocate, will I die, what exactly is "lost"? Need is relative. As the saying goes nothing is irreplaceable.

Time heals wounds and broken hearts. The pain of losing a loved one will be dulled over time. In every end there is a new beginning. Every dark night gives way to light.

Do you really need what you think you need or is it just some sort of characterization to let others know that you love them?

I don't need my wife but I love her. Whatever she does can be done by someone else but I prefer and am happy she is the one doing it for me. Likewise I know she doesn't need me. Love is more important than need. Love and need is not the same thing. Love is giving while need is taking.

I love my daughter......
