Sylvie, On Love and Mallards

Summary:

How much weight do we put on words, and why do we assume they all mean the same thing to everyone? This piece puts a spin on the word love...

Tones:

Amusing, Contemplative, Emotional

Language:

English

Description:

My eight year old recently taught me how to be free from the entanglements of love, including the word itself. In this commentary, the focus shifts quickly from a mother who worries about her daughter, to one who wishes she could be more like her.
