INTO LOVE: Some Thoughts on the Incomprehensibility of Love

Cindy:    Can we ever understand love?

Don:      We can certainly understand passion, but I wonder about love . . .

Aiko:    (shrugging her shoulders) Don't look to me for insights. I can barely manage 
          to keep my head straight, and am often confused by my emotions.

Bai-Luo:  We attach all sorts of notions to emotions such as love, yet sometimes I feel 
          emotion itself has no inherent meaning. Most people take their emotions 
          far too seriously.

Don:      Hmm. I can't say I feel comfortable with that.

Cindy:    (sighing) Yeah, few people are . . .
