As I wrote yesterday, love is a wonderful emotion that remains largely at rest until that first extra-special someone comes into our life for the very first time. This person, this object of our love and desire, is amazing! They’re so funny, everything they say is a word from the gods! When they’re around, we lose control of our minds and our bodies. It feels like we’re walking on air. Our insides turn to Jell-O, the once fertile soil of our young mind turns to mud. We adopt big sloppy smiles and walk around as if in a dream. In short, we become……stupid!
We know we’re being stupid but we don’t care. It’s okay because love makes everything wonderful, and makes us a whole lot healthier! That’s right, healthier. According to two recent studies, one from the University of New York at Oswego and the other from Finland, love is good for the heart and the blood.
Tomorrow I'll share a heart-warming story about the curative power of love.
