The War on Drugs .2a [MDMA]

 

Humans have been looking for ways to alter their consciousness by taking drugs that are found in nature since time immemorial. And it's really only in the last century that the labs have caught up to craft whatever kind of experience someone wants.
The use of chemicals to alter mood, both for therapy & for recreation, has created a shadow industry that law enforcement can't contain & pharmaceutical companies are desperate to control.

This, the century of the synthetic drug, begins but doesn't end here, in the shadow of the late Alexander Shulgin. It was in his lab in the 1960s, Alexander Sasha Shulgin, a renegade chemist, reimagine the study of drugs & by extension, human consciousness. He's recognized as the spiritual father of psychedelics, creating over 200 substances from scratch & experimenting them on himself with no absolute idea what the effects will be, not to mention the most important which is what dose to start with but he also, however inadvertently, set off a billion-dollar race to control the synthetics market.

The question that keeps coming to mind for me is; have we limited our access to potentially breakthrough therapies by making all these drugs illegal?
NB: Sasha had been working at Dow Chemical & had been very successful for them & made them quite a bit of money with developing one of the 1st biodegradable insecticides. They were sufficiently impressed with the success that they said; "well, what would you like to work on now?"
And at that time, the psychedelics were thought to be exciting new tools for psychotherapy but the problem then was that they were illegal at that time.
His most cited contribution came early in his career, when he took an experimental drug abandoned by a German pharmaceutical company & shared it with the world.

The substance is MDMA, Ecstasy, the most popular synthetic drug of all time. My curiosity is, if such a simple molecule can allow anyone this type of openness, this so called psychedelic experience, what modification of that molecule will modify, improve, change, redirect that type of introspection?
One of the most common ways to make MDMA is to start with the essential oil, Safrole. 

A substance found in sassafra which is a naturally occurring compound with a zero psychoactive property.
(So this is Safrole, start with a benzene ring, these 2 oxygen & a carbon out here. That's Safrole. Synthetic drugs start of with a precursor, in this case, Safrole which is combined with Methylamine hydrochloride to make MDMA).
Sounds easy, but it's not. There's some complicated chemistry to get to the end product.

Sasha Shulgin was the 1st person to recognise that MDMA could have that kind of therapeutic potential. Sasha's widow, Ann, was really his co-conspirator, & together, they tested a lot of substance on themselves, including MDMA.

If you take it for insight, what you also get is not just the ability to see where you are in your life & what your problems are & what your mistakes have been but the realisation comes without self-hate or anger at yourself. In some way which we don't understand, it allows you to have a true self-acceptance & a love for yourself. This is why MDMA is so extraordinarily valuable for PTSD.

MDMA is a mixture of stimulant & hallucinogens. It will make people feel this intense love & a huge part of that relates to the serotonin system. The serotonin impacts on our mood, so it gives these positive effects but before it's therapeutic uses could be explored, MDMA got derailed. It made it's way to the underground in the late '70s & early '80s, where it was packaged, branded & brought to the market as Ecstasy for people looking less for therapy & more for a straight-up good time but, the party didn't last.
Suspicious of it's popularity, the Feds made it illegal (a Schedule I drug) in 1985, effectively killing it's chance to be studied for therapeutic purposes as Shulgin had intended; something to create what we believe could be the final solution to this problem.

The WAR ON DRUGS was really the war on pharmaceutical research.
Here is how scheduling works, the DEA determines the legality of drugs in the United States, classifying new compounds into one of five schedules, depending on their medical uses & potential for abuse.
Numbered in reverse order, they start with things like certain cough medicines at Schedule V & go all the way up to I: fully illegal drugs for which the federal government acknowledges no therapeutic use. Globally, other institutions like World Health Organisation, provide guidance on the scheduling of substances.

While medical scheduling ground legal research to a halt, it did unleash an unintended global consequence: the rise of copycat drugs, known as Synthetic Analogs or NPS, New Psychoactive Substances. There are a small minority of users who sometimes call themselves psychonauts who want to try this new drugs that haven't been tested previously, or they want to push their boundaries of psychopharmacology in one way or another. They don't necessarily want to try these bizarre derivatives of controlled substances, but this is what happens in a prohibitionist market. Psychedelics serve as a key to unlock the door, exploring & pushing the boundaries of consciousness & the boundaries of what is real.

Psychedelics are interesting. They're definitely about the ego. They're about empathy, the closeness, being in touch. In fact, that's why psychedelics are being evaluated clinically because it opens up that person. They can now get beyond themselves, & psychedelics release all the walls that we all build up around ourselves & the emotions that are trapped inside.
The number of synthetic drugs has been estimated to be over 800. It's become huge. It's become bigger than I think a lot of people realise, because, to some extent, it's supplanted the traditional drug trade.

Because synthetics are designed in a lab, when they're put on the FDA's schedule for banned substances, it's technically the chemical formula that's made illegal. So, underground chemists will tweak the fomula just enough to make it a different compound while keeping the desired effects. Since it's not technically the same drug, it's legal again.
The problem with synthetic analogs is that every time you synthesize a new version, it has the potential to be stronger & more dangerous. And without sufficient lab controls, the end user is the unwitting test subject.

The MDMA mutes the fight or flight response, the physiological response to trauma in PTSD. FDA approval for MDMA-assisted therapy may sound like a long shot, but early clinical studies
on it's effectiveness for PTSD have been seriously encouraging. It eliminated the disorder in two out of three veterans & significantly reduced the symptoms in the rest.
The issue, in part, is what a shift to MDMA would mean to the existing $2.1 billion antidepressant industry.

The Spaces We Give & Their Effects

What makes us humans is the fact that we can not do without each other, that's why we have families. The need for companionship, the relatives around us & the friends we keep. No man is an island meaning, we all need one another to co-exist, survive & live to see the next day because when you have nothing to loose, then you probably won't have a reason to live.

Take for example, the worst punishment you can ever give to let's say a criminal who is already serving time in a Correctional Facility for a crime he committed is Solitary Confinement. A dark room where he's cut off from every other inmates & all communications restricted. You find out that the longer it takes for that kind of privilege to be restored back, the aftermath of it all often takes a toll on them in the future. That is, if he is strong enough to silence the voices in his head or make sense of the images he creates in the dark & it will only be a matter of time before he cracks open.

Another example are those who recruit for Elite Special Forces like in the Agencies that specialize in Undercover Operations, Mercenaries for hire & Stone Cold Assassins who one of the keen qualities that make them good at what they do is the ability to have no strings attached to anyone, whether family or friend or the fact that they already have nothing to loose or live for before signing up for the job.

Why is it so? No Compromises! They wouldn't want any untied loose ends to trace them back home or wherever they call their safe haven. You wouldn't want the countless enemies the reputation (achieved from the number of the inexplicable acts done in the past or about to carry out) have created you to get to you either directly or through the people you got the least love for & once they're out there on any job, they're Expendables. Sorry to use the word but it comes with the job so once you get caught, you're on your own. No Backups is coming & No Rendezvous whatsoever but even with all that glory & how much is expected of them, the slightest ounce of warmth in them still finds a reason to relate with a fellow human asides from the new purpose the job has given them.
You find out that even as cold & hardened he or she claims to be, the slightest warmt & soft part of them feels the need to at least find themselves in the midst of the people they're already familiar with or have someone to look out for them & then also, the need to care for someone, whether family or friend.

Nobody is a loner, that is not who we are. That wasn't the purpose of creation, we should isolate. No, I don't think so. That is not how we are meant to live & to even think the most anti social individual do talk to someone if you look very closely. Come to think of it, it's your birthday & nobody wished you well or extended any regards to you, how does it feel? Are you aware that people calling to check up on you when you're down or coming to sit beside your sick bed don't make you whole again but it helps you recover quickly. Has it ever occured to you that when the body system is less troubled emotionally, the patient responds to treatment very quickly? Apparently, physical growth & development of every human solely depends on both mental & emotional state of the being that occupies the body.

Technology made it easier for us to relate even with the ones who are not there with us present but yet, people find it hard or feel so reluctant to see that as an advantage. Most people are in their best in terms of visual contact. They communicate better anytime they're around you. Some might make you believe that they can not do without your company, while the real reason for them being around is about the things you have to offer & not what you're bringing to the table.
However, you can only know the real ones & their motives when the hill gets stoney or the road gets bumpy. You find out that communication starts breaking up, if not lost with time.

They say; "sometimes give people space, let them come to you" & I say; "be very careful when you draw that line because most people find it hard to cross over when probably, you must've left so many lines in an unimaginable amount of space & the walls you build around you gets taller". You stand the chance of loosing them for life but when nature creates one so obvious that nobody could've done anything to fill in the gaps, do very well to reach out once in a while. Technology made it easier for us to communicate so why don't we make use of what we created in the first place? Sometimes, you don't have to wait for the other party to check up on you, make the call! Send a text message if you don't have much. Do something, you don't need to prove nothing to anyone.

I keep on saying these words; "goodwill & kind gesture goes a long way in this part of the world". Individually, we all sit in a pool of problems, that make us human too but even in a world this cruel, it feels good to know that someone out there (family or friend) does have you in mind & think good of you.
Even in a world this wicked, we still got good in each of us. You don't have to knock the lights out, let it shine so someone can see the clear path that leads to you.
If you got good in you, you don't force it out, let it come out naturally. You don't have to imagine everyone in your situation before you do the least good for them. Show people you really care with your actions & not just words, it don't make you any more vulnerable than you think to any attack whatsoever or any less self preserved, you're only achieving the purpose of creation.

Reach out to someone on your contact list, extend a hand. Let them know you have their best interests in mind because you never know, one text message from you can give someone a reason to want to wake up the next day & please, let's not get the wrong impression about all these words because I'm not trying to measure the value of the company we keep or how important you might be to someone you care about but to think this pandemic is really getting a lot of people messed up in the head as we all know.
My point is, if we can change the way we think, we can do some real good in this world & this goes out to all those whom by His Grace still got their minds right in this uncertain times, it's your job to check up on others. I'm not saying you should add their problems to yours or be their knight in a shining armour, just try to know how they're holding up. Show the least regard, it won't cost a thing.

You know, someone told me something that really stuck with me. "If you're not willing to fight for what you love, then you never deversed it in the first place".
Mind you! I'm not a Preacher, I only speak from the heart. The move you're making after you read this is not for them, you're doing it for yourself because I don't know about you but I can also attest to the fact that it feels good to know you made somebody happy. It's a thing of joy to see a smile on someone's face & you're the one who out it there.

Forgiveness.

When you love somebody, you forgive them when they hurt you. It's called being Human, there's nothing wrong with that. It might take long depending on the deed because most times, it's a lot to process but in the end, you gonna have to let go of the grudge except of course somewhere along the way there's an act of betrayal. Its unforgivable, even God can relate with me on that.

Sometimes what hurts the most when people you care about offend you isn't just the act but the feeling of not wanting to have anything to do with the offender who happens to used to be your best friend or family, having to loose or break up communication with them for life when eventually you can't help seeing them around each an everyday. The grudge alone eats you up from the inside on a daily.

Pain & Anger, the aftermath of the grudge & punishment we inflict on ourselves for somebody else's mistake. I mean, how long do you think you can hold on to that before you let go? Worst case scenario, you appear soft & weak but then again your freedom from such a burden makes you stronger than they thought you look & freedom my friend, is a thing of joy. Most of the times overwhelming so before you contradict me on that just ask yourself this, "you don't like to be free?"
My whole life, I've been trying to figure out humans but you find out that why people think or act the way they do is a whole mystery even bigger than you because you see what they want you to see. You cannot get into their heads, all you have is a tiny window into their lives & that's the farthest you can go unless of course you're gifted with mind reading which another weird case altogether because it makes you look so unhuman.
My point, you can not control they way people think but you can adjust the way you relate with each & everyone of them.

If you understand the journey in this life then you will also know that some things that happen in life is either part of the plan or a way to test your patient, see how you react to things that happen around you & how you handle them. Don't get me all wrong but most people have the habit of daring you just to watch you respond to the cause.

People will always be who they are, I mean it's one thing we can not change. We all can relate to that fact.
They will love & resent you for either your good or bad deeds, that's normal.
Most of them will even resent you for being good. You don't blame them, it's who they are.
Few will love you regardless your flaws but one thing you will make sure of is not being the reason for the burnt bridges.
Keep your heart clean of that so that nothing they do or say behind your back in the hope of making themselves victims of the situation is ever gonna get to your conscience. It matters a whole lot.

It's a small world & everything goes round it, they have that connection in common. Nothing happens without a reason. Nothing goes for nothing. Words & Opposite, Actions & Consequences, Causes & Effects. It's a constant ever revolving chain of event, very inevitable for that fact. So you see, in order for you to indulge in the act of forgiveness then somebody has must have broken any one of the 2nd 5 of the 10 commandments because even the Holy Book can attest to that fact. We all are familiar with the particular Scripture verse that reads, "if there's no sin, there wouldn't be forgiveness." So it's also an act we owe to those who wronged us regardless of how much their deeds hurt. It doesn't matter how long it takes but one day, you gonna have to let go of the burden & by so doing, then you must have forgiven.

Some Social Rules May Help You To Look Professional

1. Don’t call someone more than twice continuously. If they don’t pick up your call that means they have something more important to attend to.

2. Return money that you have borrowed even before the other person remembers lending it to you. It shows your integrity and character. Same goes with umbrellas, pens and lunch boxes.

3. Never order the expensive dish on the menu when someone is treating you for lunch or dinner. If possible ask them to order their choice of food for you.

4. Don’t ask awkward questions like ‘Oh so you aren’t married yet?’ Or ‘Don’t you have kids’ or ‘Why didn’t you buy a house?’ For god’s sake it isn’t your problem.

5. Always open the door for the person coming behind you. Doesn’t matter if it is a guy or a girl. You don’t grow small by treating someone well in public.

6. If you take a taxi with a friend, and he or she pays now, you pay next time.

7. Respect different political opinions.

8. Never interrupt people talking.

9. If you tease someone and they don’t seem to enjoy it, stop it and never do it again.

10. Say “thank you” when someone is helping you.

11. Praise publicly. Criticize privately.

12. There’s almost never a reason to comment on someone’s weight. Just say, “You look fantastic.” If they want to talk about losing weight, they will.

13. When someone shows you a photo on their phone, don’t swipe left or right. You never know what’s next.

14. If a colleague tells you they have a doctors appointment, don’t ask what it’s for, just say hope you’re ok. If they want to talk about it they will and you don’t put them in the uncomfortable position of having to tell you their personal illness.

15. Treat the cleaner with the same respect as the CEO. Nobody is impressed at how rudely you can treat someone below you but people will notice if you treat them with respect.

16. If a person is speaking directly to you, staring at your phone is rude.

17. Never give advice until you’re asked.

18. When meeting someone after a long time, unless they want to talk about it, don’t ask them their age and salary.

19. Mind your own business unless anything involves you directly — just stay out of it.

20. Take off your sunglasses if you are talking to anyone in the street. It is a sign of respect and more eye contact is as important as your speech.

The Golden Rule

Human beings are spirits; you call for theirwrath when you defile them. This is why no one should mislead, deceive or manipulate their fellow human being in the name of relationship or love. You defile a human when you ‘use’ them. Humans are to be loved & cared for. If you're fond of having sex with others & dumping them once you're done, use your head brother! If you're in the habit of using others for your needs & once you're done, you drop them, watch your back! (this goes out to everyone, no gender in particular).

If you're a man & agree to date or be in a relationship with any lady in the name of marriage, it means you're making the lady a prophetess in your life. Their words have a huge impact on your life; their encouragement, counsel & prayers contribute to your success in life. How far you go in life as a man determines the kind of woman in your life. What they say has the power to come to pass.

This is why you have to be careful in selecting the right kind of woman as your partner. This means it’s not anything you're attracted to that you go for; it isn’t everything which looks appealing that you go for. You don't just use a woman & dump her. It is like dumping your destiny or future because you might cause her to speak words which you don't want to come to pass.

Women are powerful & it's time the young men of today knew so they don't get involved with any woman when they know very well they have no plans of settling down with them, as a demi god, there's power in our tongues. Words said in heartbreak will always leave an unpleasant scar within the mind of the offender & they most likely come to pass.

Young pastors or ministers, who are luring ladies into a relationship in exchange for help, please be careful. Just as you call them your destiny helper, they have the power to become your destiny destroyer because you have given them access in the first place & then also, if you're a lady who dates men for just your needs or help, use your head because it might seem to you it's all about the money or the flashy things you can get but it goes way beyond that.
Men are sources, they are fathers. When you agree to be in a relationship with him, you're making him your source or a father figure. Believe what you want but that's an undeniable fact.

If you take his provision & protection for granted & then take advantage of him & make him go through pains, his curses come to pass because you submitted to that authority when you agreed to be with him. The duty of the man is to love & cherish the woman in his life, not to abuse, use & dump her. The same way the woman is supposed to submit to your authority & not to fool or manipulate you.

No one likes used & dumped things, not to talk of being used & dumped by the one who claimed he or she loved you. If you can't be good to that man or woman you want to be in the relationship with, please don't waste their time, deceive, rub their emotions or use & then dump.
They're better off without your lies & if you must have to walk out on a Relationship, don't make it loud & very obvious. Instead of creating reasons to do that & in the end hurt the other, withdraw silently or give them some space. If they happen to come around, take it on but if they don't, move the hell on. (Please this method only should be considered taken if there's nothing you can do to save the wrecking ship)

Our today is a reflection of our future & what you send out there today will come back to you tomorrow.
What you sow today is your harvest tomorrow, what you give today; you will get it tomorrow.
It goes round like that so to avoid curses, choose to bless others today. Be real, be transparent, be a lover, be good because you got it in you, you don't force it because it comes out naturally.

Life has taught me well enough to know that anything you don't want, you don't give it a second thought. If a lady sees who she likes for the first time, she gives them the chance to convince her but if they don't, there's no way she's giving the attention. My point is, don't rub a guy's emotion when you know you're in for the deep pockets, tell him to back off on time even though the strong headed type will want to persevere but if that be the case then make the hell sure that you don't accept anything he brings to the table in the name of pleasing you because one day, he's going to expect you to reciprocate those kind gestures.

Guys, if you try so hard to win a lady's attention when clearly she didn't have to but somehow you sounded so convincing & she layed down her guards for you, don't make her regret making that choice. If you're in for the fun of it, best be real with that fact from day 1 & if somehow you're down for whatever then also keep it real with her, either way, honesty won't cost you a thing. I don talk am before & I go still talk am again, actions have consequences, what goes around comes back around.
You will have your kids in the future unless of course you choose not to tie up the knots wit anyone but our mistakes & deliberate actions have a coming back to it & on the day of reckony, you're not only going to reap from those mistakes of yours you showed way back, people close to you might also be affected if the law of folds of ten happens to be very effective on your case. Be very careful. 

In conclusion, AS YOU WISH OTHERS SHOULD DO UNTO YOU, DO TO THEM LIKEWISE. "You cannot fool God, so don’t make a fool of yourself! You will harvest what you sow". Galatians 6:7.

WHY FATHERS ARE NEGLECTED IN OLD AGE

In the lifetime of Family Settings, there are 3 Dispensations of Power.

The 1st is the first 25 years in the life of the family. (Father, Mother & Children) where power indisputably rests with the Father.

The 2nd is after the kids have grown & started working, when the power shifts to the Mother.

The 3rd is when the Kids move out of the Family house or Start their own Families, when the Power moves to the Children.

We'll start from the 1st Dispensation. Total dominance of the father. He is the Lion of the Tribe of his House. The Man.
During this dispensation, the father rules with an iron fist. He barks orders & determines what does or does not happen.
The father often vents out corporal punishment to the unruly children. They grow to fear him more than they love him.
The father is the provider for the family & everyone is aware of that fact with all attendant consequences.

Then the 2nd Dispensation sets in. The children have finished school and have started working. Power shifts to the mother.
When the children start earning their own money, for some reason, it's their mothers they decide to look after because they've been closer to her.
While the father was in charge, he was busy with the business of providing. He didn't have much time to be a friend to the children.

They spent more time with their mum and invariably grew closer to her. They also see their mum as co-victims of the father's tyranny.
The mother takes centre stage at this point. She is the first to know what's happening with the children & she has advantage.
Should any of the daughters give birth, she is the one that goes for babysitting and the children spoil her with gifts, its custom.
At this stage, the father is wishing for some bond with the children like they have with their mother but that boat has sailed.
Because the mother doesn't rely much on the father for her needs at this stage, she is less likely to tolerate his lordship.

Then the 3rd and last dispensation. Power has shifted to the children. They are self-sufficient, live on their own & have their own families.
More often than not, whenever there is a quarrel between father & mother, the children side with the mother. Years of joint-victim hood at play.
Children have been known to come to the house to warn their father not to disturb their mother. Next thing, extended visitations & communication starts breaking up.

Woe betide the father if his finances are unstable or insecure at this stage. You will be humbled by force. The gang-up is real.
This causes most men to fall ill & develop different complications. By the time the forces are arrayed against you, you will think well. Stroke, Hypertension, High-Blood Pressure. The man has a large family but no relationship with them in later life. Troubling thought.

Morals: dear men, while the power lies with us, let us wield it with posterity in mind. It won't be with us forever. The way you are treating your wife now, determines how she will treat you when power shifts to her.
What relationship do you have with your family? A loving father or a despotic, tyrannical provider?

Always remember, the children always side with their mother. Aim to do enough to at least get a fair hearing in future moments of family strife.
Invest wisely for the future so that you won't have to beg to be taken care of if despite your best efforts, you find yourself alone.

ADVISE TO CHILDREN:
IT IS NOT GOOD TO ABANDON YOUR FATHER WHO DENIED HIMSELF MOST PLEASURES TO GET YOU PREPARED FOR LIFE & WHO SACRIFICIALLY SOWED TO MAKE YOU WHO YOU ARE.

HONOUR YOUR BOTH PARENTS & TAKE GOOD CARE OF THEM IN THEIR OLD AGE. THAT IS HOW YOU TOO WILL SOW INTO YOUR FUTURE.

DO NOT LET NEGLECTING YOUR FATHER (OR PARENTS) BE A CURSE ON YOU INTO YOUR FUTURE.

ADVISE TO MOTHERS:
DO NOT INCITE YOUR CHILDREN AGAINST THEIR FATHER.

Parenthood Is Not Easy Despite It's Joys. There Is No Manual On How It Works.

Wishing All Of You A Very Healthy, Wonderful, Blessed, Peaceful, Prosperous & Happy life.

THIS THIN' CALLED LIFE

Life is full of colours‎. Each & every one of us come along & we add our own colour‎ to the paintin'‎. Even though it's not very big, the paintin',‎ we just have to figure out that it goes on forever, u know & in each direction to like infinity cos that's kinda like life.

It's kinda crazy if u think about it but two centuries ago, a man had a son Okoye, (my great grand-pa) ‎who begat ‎Emmanuel, (my grand-pa)‎ who begat Louis, ‎(my father)‎ & here I am with my own kinda colour‎ already marked in the paintin'‎.

The question now is‎:
• "what if we are all in the paintin' everywhere before we were born?"‎
• "what if we are in it after we die?"
• "& these colours that we keep addin', what if they just keep gettin' added on top one another until eventually we are not different colours anymore?" We are just one thin', One paintin'.‎

My dad is not with us anymore, he's no more alive but he's with us never the less. He's with me everyday. It all just sort of fits somehow & even if we don't understand how yet, that people will die in our lives, people that we love. In the future, maybe tomorrow, maybe years from now.‎ I mean, it's kinda beautiful right? 

If u think about it, the fact that just because someone dies, just because you can't see them or talk to them anymore, it doesn't mean that they are not still in the paintin'. I think maybe that's the point of this whole thin' called Life. There's no dyin', there's no me‎ or you‎ or them‎. It's just US‎.

And this sloppy wild colourful magical thin' that has no beginnin', has no endin' is right here & I think it's US.

Happy Val's Day.
Happy Ash Wednesday.‎

WORDS 4rm a DYIN' MAN

I think almost all the body systems is prone to this thing called CANCER & to think that ‎the cure for this ailment might be locked up in the brain of someone who can't afford education. Almost 1 out of much will tell u they fought cancer & out lived it. That bitch is like kamar, somehow it gets back @ you, no offence but b4 I end up gettin' us all scared already, it's not what I called your attention in the 1st place.

Relationship & Love

‎

Relationship! That word ehh, on how you hear am, know say e go must get day wey the thin' go expire but Love on the other hand never ends. I dunno about you but this is how I see these two words. The former always have an end but the later never stops. It's ever green.

Relationship can come in many forms, let's not get me wrong but the most prominent kind we do practice widely today, it can end in many ways with no regards whatsoever as to how much sacrifices u both have made in the past nor the damage it'll cause in the future. Nobody cares. It just stops and mind you, the sex kept you that long enough to stay. Believe it or don't, I've been there before.

Real Love? How many relationships does that still exist in anyway? Well I don't expect an answer to that, your heart knows better. Thanks to the decency of merciful lies though, some get to last a week, some less. Who's fault is it?  God loves no matter what so why can't we just love unconditionally without having to tag it a name & hope one day it doesn't end?

Look! I dunno how to get this out but anyway the fact is when you love somebody‎, that's it because:
• You don't want to be the cause of his/her pain.
• You'll always want them to be happy (with or without you).
• You don't want to ever stop bein' happy so u don't stop thinking about them (ever fresh on your mind).
• You say sorry even when you're the one hurt because you don't ever want to stop loving (that's when people call you stupid).
• No sex but you always faithful. How many relationships can survive all that? The GOLDEN RULES! [as you wish others should do onto you, do to them likewise].

Oh! You think I'm carried away? Naaa, I'm not. Can we love without touching or seeing? I can't explain every single detail but if you feel me then let's not baptize it & hope someday along the line sex will fall out, if it don't then you go out there to get one.
