Its really touchy….Gr8 one.
Nice read. Sorry for nitpicking, but it’’s hard to belive a 6 year can be so profound as to say ”Love is what makes you smile when you”re tired”. It sound simple, but it takes a lifetime of experiences to articulate it.
Nice thought for the day.
sweet n innocent answers.. nice one ya….
Pretty answers
Quite a different yet interesting way to look at the much talked about thing called ”Love”. Liked it.
thanks! life is beautiful smile.
thanx, brought smile on my face.
pyaar vaakai itna hi maasoom hota hai….bilkul in bachcho jaisa

Love is when you read a blog like this and feel dat its over so soon….and await the person’’s next blog.

No..its not love..what experience these boys have about love..they are just observing it and calling it as this may be love,because somebody infoms them that when people fallin love they do such kind of act..what do you mean to the love is in act..or that act is love..please trust..true love do not exists..at all…:-)
