Love Is a Spiral Loop
Now, I am going to tell you in a simple way why someone you're in love with does not love you back. For once, most of you will care.
First of all, I need to mention that I usually prefer to act according to nature when I live my life.
I see these acts of God which are brought by nature as a retreat, an obvious revenge and I do not complain about them. Actually, getting sick is a natural and also a beautiful thing. I never felt too lazy to go to the kitchen in order to get a glass of water while I'm coughing and my nose is running. You will say “What that has to do with being in love?”. Nada, zip, zilch. I just wanted to mention it.
Without further ado,
Firstly, we need to think what love is. If you are not a huge fan of Mevlana, each of you will have different answers.
Some of you will give simple (yeah, simple) answers like “Don't move so she doesn't feel uncomfortable when she puts her head on your shoulder.”
Some of you will give cliché answers (yeah, cliché) like “Feeling butterflies in your stomach when you look into her eyes.”
Some of you will defend the sentence which Celal Şengör has said in the podcast “68th Science: About Education with Celal Şengör” at the 22nd minute 29th second.
As we understand from this, there is no single and clear explanation about love and there should not be one.
I guess everyone has one point in common. A situation where the person you are in love with is not in love with you.
(If your lover loves you back and you’re together, you may leave now.)
Soon you will understand from this passage, unlike other words why only “firmament” and “earth” aren’t used as names since neither we are at the beginning of this cycle nor at the end.
Not only you fall in love, everyone, everything falls in love
Love is a spiral loop and everything is in this loop.
Actually;
Firmament in love with stars,
Stars into the nights
Nights in love with light.
Light into the sun
Sun in love with clouds.
Clouds into the wind
Wind in love with rain.
Rain into the earth
Earth in love with you.
You’re into her...
I know, in order not to ruin the loop, she cannot be into you, but afterwards on this loop,
She is into someone and
That someone is into someone else too.
