V for Vendetta was a good fuckin movie

I was just watching V for Vendetta, and it was V's death scene. He said that he had fallen in love with Evee, and I had a thought about what it means to love a person. Contrary to popular belief, the different "forms" of love are not as different as they may seem. They may have different ASPECTS that accompany them, but the -->heart<-- of it is the same.

Now, I don't mean to confine a concept as (rightfully) broad and vague as "LOVE" but I just had a thought on it. 

ONE LOVE is a concept I learned from rasta movement, one which I understand and relate to. But there was a SOUL aspect of the ONE LOVE concept, that I didn't completely realize. We are all ONE, and LOVE is the spirit that connects us. But this spirit is smothered constantly, because of earthly attachment. We become more concerned with our happiness (one which we have not taken the time to break down and analyze so as to understand what makes us happy, instead resorting to drugs, alcohol, etc.). Now, to address this concern, is to address ourselves as an individual, as a person, made of matter, flesh, bones, nerves, all that. This is INHERENTLY ignoring the feelings of others. But it's not that simple. People are connected by ONE LOVE, thats what makes us truly concerned with the wellbeing of others. That's how we come into the world.  It becomes this dependence on earthly pleasures that FORCES us to close that connection, so we have the energy to do what we ((think)) is best for us.

To love someone, to me, is to keep that connection open (reopen it, in some cases). Any feeling, anything you learn, anything you experience, you wish upon that person. You want everything for that person that you would want for yourself. [INTERJECTION: achieving the next sentence would you require knowing what would be best for yourself] It is understanding what is really BEST for that person, even when it's not something they want to hear. Even when everyone else is sugarcoating it. Even if they might HATE you for it (because if it was really what was best for them, at the end of they day they wouldn't hate you... isn't hate just a form of love anyway? hmm...).

But I'm not sure, really. I'm not sure if I've even experienced it.

P.S. I'm high so.... yeah, take what you want from this.
