爱，就是共同的激情
----情人节里对爱的解读
情人节是表达爱的节日，不一定非得是“情人”。今天的情人有了更广的意义，它更多地是指与你朝夕相处，相濡以沫的爱人。我常常想，爱到底有怎样的含义呢？
英文中把爱写成“Love”，可是读许多英文小说，有人把“love”称作“compassion”。我很喜欢这个词，觉得它更能诠释爱的意义。爱，就是让我来感受你的痛苦，你的欢乐，你的悲伤，还有你的快慰。那么，compassion不是最贴切地表达了这多重的意义吗？com是分享，passion是激情。爱，就是彼此分享共同的激情。相比之下，love所能传达的意思就单薄了许多。
我们从双双年轻，牵手步入爱的宫殿。曾经的山盟海誓，要经得起柴米油盐的平平淡淡；曾经的激情无限，要跨越过生儿育女的琐细无奈。从春走到夏，从秋走到冬；日复一日，年复一年。黑发在变白，容颜在变老，不改的是我们那颗曾经彼此相爱的心。想想我们每个人，不都是历经了这样的爱之旅程吗？
有了共同分享激情的心愿，才会有同舟共济的决心；有了共同分享激情的信念，才会有白头偕老的浪漫。爱，就是让我陪你一起慢慢变老。
我更喜欢繁体汉字的“愛”。爱人就是心灵的朋友，在同一个屋檐下，承受来自上天的三种压力，这压力也许是出自你，我，还有他（她）。但是，无论那三种压力有多大，只要有了心灵的朋友，就如同撑起了一把晴雨伞，那是来自上帝的保佑。爱，就是这样一种分担和分享，相爱的人在分担彼此的忧虑中变得成熟；在分享彼此的快乐中变得年轻。
爱，就是共同的激情；只要激情还在，只要分享的爱心还在，爱，就会永远年轻！
我最喜欢的一首歌，Take Me to Your Heart，与大家分享。
Take Me to Your Heart
hiding from the rain and snow
trying to forget but I won't let go
looking at a crowded street
listening to my own heart beat
so many people all around the world
tell me where do I find someone like you girl
take me to your heart take me to your soul
give me your hand before I'm old
show me what love is haven't got a clue
show me that wonders can be true
they say nothing lasts forever
we're only here today
love is now or never
bring me far away
take me to your heart take me to your soul
give me your hand and hold me
show me what love is be my guiding star
it's easy take me to your heart
standing on a mountain high
looking at the moon through a clear blue sky
I should go and see some friends
but they don't really comprehend
don't need too much talking without saying anything
all I need is someone who makes me want to sing
take me to your heart take me to your soul
give me your hand before i'm old
show me what love is haven't got a clue
show me that wonders can be true
they say nothing lasts forever
we're only here today
love is now or never
bring me far away
take me to your heart take me to your soul
give me your hand and hold me
show me what love is be my guiding star
it's easy take me to your heart
take me to your heart take me to your soul
give me your hand and hold me
show me what love is be my guiding star
it's easy take me to your heart.
