Commentary By KJ

 

Most, if not, all of us want to be loved. Not just the intimate bond between a husband and wife but the wholesome feeling of knowing that someone cares for and truly values you the person. That something that money can't pay for.

Talented Bahamian singer Ancient Man echoed the sentiments I ainâ't askin for much and reggae singer Buju Banton reinforced the point in the words of one of his songs, "I want to be loved, with no strings attached..real love."

But what is real love? Certainly, we're not only talking about the love between a husband and wife. Love has many forms of expression. So how do you know when you are giving or receiving it? Would a parent who loves his or her child slap that child in the face and call it discipline? Would a man who treasures the woman in his life "play the field"? Would a woman who loves her man call him stupid or other demeaning names? What is real love? Post your definition below.
