I first remember spotting him in a Fashion television show: I was mortified. I cannot put it in any more plain terms: he scares me with his excessively pale skin and his powdery white hair, and, above all, that dreadful expression of his. He seems to have fashionably risen from the grave. Everything about him seems so calculated, that I cannot help it– I imagine him lying lifeless on a white mattress and an entourage of elite professionals dressing him. Instilling life. And it naturally follows, that undressed he is dead.
That being said , I have this burning desire to make his acquaintance, and get to know him intimately.
It’s all so strange. I want to laugh. I am laughing. I’d presume this is what happens when image takes precedence over person–it’s all so comical!
Poor puppy. I wonder what he is thinking? (or is it a doll)

Love is in the air. Can you feel it? From poets to fortune tellers, writers to musicians, artists to filmmakers, philosophers to sculptors the topic of love has been scrutinized—inside out. However, not only is love the domain of artistic souls, it also appeals to the everyday man and the everyday woman…as they go about their days, searching for their other halves, knights in shining armor , sultriest of goddesses. Being one of them, I have also expressed this innate desire to know, and, consequently, I turned to poets, authors, philosophers and artists for an answer! Only to come out of it empty-handed, well, love is elusive I concluded, it just is!
Not so fast, missy! There is one avenue you have yet to explore, I thought to myself. What do the social psychologists have to say? So, today, I got to hear in two hours and forty five minutes: what love is, according to social psychologists, that is?
And…I came out of the classroom full-handed, clutching my umbrella, purse and Dostoevsky’s The Idiot, but otherwise empty.
