No....I'm being cryptic.


you would be being cryptic if your logic was correct.

shakespeare: a rose by any other name is still a rose....

but if you say something smells like a tulip..... it's not going to be (or smell like ) a rose no matter what you call it.......


logic is life, and life is logic. what can be seen, can not be heard. Love doth make no sense, and yet arouses all others.

Using plz completely negates any complaints on grammar... As does the typo for consistent. (My inner grammar-nazi is coming out, my apologies. Not to say that I haven't made any mistakes. If I have, someone best jump on that!)

As for love making sense, no, it doesn't. Well... more correctly, it doesn't have to make sense Saying it makes sense when you know it is not far from saying something makes sense when you understand it. (That would be...well...common sense. The answer is known when you solve the equation. Yes, That's correct...and redundant.) That doesn't make that thing understandable. One can "know" love and not understand it.
