She loves me… she loves me not.

I come to wonder whether my baby abbie loves me…
Suddenly I remember one psychology article that said that lonely people tend perform anthromosphism.
In easier languange , it means lonely people tend to  associate human characteristic with non-human creatures and beings.
Then I come to think about those people who wrote Chobits manga , and made the movie AI…
Are people getting too lonely?

Well I almost sure when I touch her and said that I love her… she does kinda understand and respond..
and I have never seen anyone.. or anything so happy to see me before.
I used to think that because I keep on giving her food.. so she thinks anna equals food.
But nowadays she likes being hugged and touched more than fed.
sometimes when she is eating , she will stop and jump to my chair just so that I will touch her…
So can I assume that she loves me?

Is love really a human feeling and characteristic?
Am I too lonely that I started to believe my dog has similar mental and emotional capability as human?

But then… how can I assume my mother loves me?
She never jumps in joy when she sees me.. She never wait for me in front of the house door.
I just assume that she does have the same feelings as me because we are human beings.
Yet love, anger , hatred , envy, jealousy and other kind of emotion differ in individual.
My love for my sister is not the same as my bestfriend’s love to hers.

Now how about God…?
God is another non-human being. Whereas love .. supposedly .. is a human characteristic.
So are those believing that God loves them are lonely people?
How can I assume that God loves me? It’s not like He is jumping in joy when He sees me … or He has the feeling inside His chest.
God might not even have chest.
But I do believe that He loves me …. or at least I assume that He does…
am I lonely?

Tricky tricky…

So do you think that animals and other non-human beings have the capability to love?
Or do you  believe that anything, or anyone , human or non-human ,really have the capability to love at all?

as much as you love someone, you have to bear in mind that it’s important that you keep on sharing your love with them, and not questioning or even demanding them to do the same to you..
