Going through my email correspondences from Ethiopia. This exchange with my Dad, prompted by angst over an ex, was especially meaningful to me. ~ Me: Why do I love him? Is it just an expression of universal love, or a convenient arrangement of reciprocal love, or, or...Im just wondering why we love each other so much, or at least think we do, and what to do about it. But maybe this is all just young blathering to you. Dad: No, I dont think its young blathering. Be consoled; youll be at it your whole life (if youre lucky). Gradually it turns into middle aged and then old blathering. Theres not a better thing to be thinking about, as long as it doesnt keep you from your meals.
