I have listened to this song since I was a little girl. It's pretty easy to understand but hard to agree with. Exspecially in this day and age, almost 50-40 years after the Love decades. Well I began to say that, no someone can not live on love alone, for one thing you need money and a job and food and clothes (social stigma) etc.
This morning I listened to the song again and I finally realized that the Beatles were right. All you need is Love.
There are two ways I can see that it makes sense.
1)All those material things are really unnecessary and if no one had them you wouldn't want them either. So people should worry more about not having love then not having a TV or computer.
2)If you are loved and you know that, then you have the strength to do what you need to to get everything else. If you have love, everything else is attainable if you want it.
Panic at the Disco said: We must reinvent love. I think that in some ways they are right and in some ways this goes hand in hand with "All You Need is Love." See I think that today the word love has taken on new meanings. I think that people throw it around too carelessly. "I love those shoes" "Omg I love him he's so cute!" "I love it when we don't have class." Uh no you don't you like it you may enjoy it but I'm pretty sure you don't LOVE it. Also I think that our culture puts way too much emphasis on relationships and therefore people focus on finding love romantically. And because they are so desperate to find love, they prematurly say those three little words "I love you." I'm not saying that every one does but a lot of people. I have to wonder how much some one really means it. I think that the young people are led to this more. Yes I am thinking of a specific couple. I also think that because of the emphasis on romantic relationships and that they mean love, people forget to look for the love they get from their family and their friends.
I would be nothing without my friends love and support and that goes a trillion times for my parents and my sister's love.
I have a lot of support going for me right now and I am really greatful. And I feel like because I know I have their love, I can do anything. So Thank you guys. I love you too.
So yeah in a sense I do also agree that "we must Reinvent Love," or maybe we just need to redefine it.
All this is one reason that I always, or most of the time, end my posts with:
Peace, Love, Harmony
because those are the three things that the world needs more of and I try to live by them and I believe that if others do too then the world will be a much better, prettier, happier place.
So
PEACE, LOVE, HARMONY
