The world has a structure articulated in terms of all the different kinds of actions, purposes, roles and ways of organizing one's life that are available to us within our culture.... But the space of possibilities will never be something that can be measured or described objectively. It is something, instead, that has to be understood to be seen. - Mark A. Wrathall, BYU Philosophy professor

Alright, my sister has challenged me and I have to revisit my last entry. So often what our society considers love at first sight isn't really love. But does it follow that love at first sight never happens? Aren't there examples of couples who within a few days knew that they were in love? I'm sure there are. If there weren't any successful relationships like this, I don't think it would be such a prevelant idea. So what makes love at first sight more than lust? Having such little experience in love, I really have no idea. But I have a feeling it might have something to do with the Spirit of God. Perhaps when there is a relationship that God knows will cause great happiness to His children, He'll kind of push it along through the Spirit. Now, the only way those involved can really know is to pray and fast. What if they don't share my faith? Than I have no idea. I'm glad the only love life I have to worry about is my own, because I have few answers. Alright I better get to my homework.
