To Run Out of Love

It is surprisingly easy to run out of love. Like the phrase "You need to spend money to get money," you have to give love to get love. And once you earn your keep, you realize it's no as much as you wanted to earn. You can spend your love on your family, your friends, you pet fish you found belly-up this morning, or even that stranger you pass on your way to class. However, you can't spend your love on them all. Time is your rude boss that says, "You can't earn enough for that." And it's also your mother yelling at you, "Don't blow it all in one place!" Sadly, time is right. You'd love to find out that that stranger's middle name is Alfredo and you'd love to buy a flushable casket for your poor little Nemo. Bu love limits you to be biased and discriminative. So now you turn your head while strolling past the mysterious man and you may even dispose of the guppy's body through the involvement of a garbage disposal. And it's then that you realize you gave up giving them love, for spending your savory love on some greasy McNuggets and fatty fries. Love may be something everyone says we don't have enough of. I argue that we do; we just don't spend it in the right places. Hitler had love. Love for a common-traited race. However, he ran out of love for Jews. Jesus had lots of love, but even he ran out of love. He could not spend his love on sins. And by the end of the day, we've ran out of love...for the homeless, the ungiven freedoms, and even ourselves. But what's the best way to budget your love? Do what your mommy says and don't spend it all in one place.
