Love is in the air

Every sight and every sound. Love is in the air. Everywhere I look around.  

So it is not Paris but this city is also a place that is full of love and romance.



I cant help but notice that love is all around! As I sit on the metro I notice couples rubbing each other's backs or hugging tightly. On the bus, I see young lovers sitting hand in hand and staring in each other's eyes. As I  walk in the streets I notice couples - young and old - walking hand in hand or arm in arm.  Teenagers lie in the park with their tops off and tease one another. Old timers sit on benches, arm in arm, taking in the sea view. Middle aged couples wander along pathways, hand in hand. Straight love, gay love, old love, middle aged love, young love, and everything in between, you will find.



It is good to see that so many people are still in love. The way of the modern world suggests that more and more people are living a life of "singledom" nowadays. What is it that makes singledom so common ? The inability to find love or a suitable love ? The  flexibility and liberty that singledom affords ? Whatever it is, I think love still is the victor. The human being needs to feel loved. As Oprah says, "We all want someone to say : I hear you". Someone to  witness our lives. Don't think I am watching too much Oprah. Her show has finished. It is just something I remembered her saying.



This is a short entry so I will place a few pics of lovers I have managed to capture on camera. Let love win the day. May your day be filled with love. Young love, old love. Whatever love you have to give or to receive. Wishing you a love-filled day!
