All Shook Up

Someone once said, ~Love and electricity are one and the same. If you do not feel the jolt in your soul every time a kiss is shared, a whisper is spoken, a touch is felt, then you're not really in love at all.~ If you think about it, there is a certain electrical vibe in the air when you meet that special someone who, in a way, energizes your heart. For it's an unexplainable feeling that if compared to would be like sticking your finger in an electrical socket and getting shocked, which probably many of us did not only as kids but also as adults. Anyways, in some aspect, love or true love for that matter is like that as you feel a surge of energy run through your entire body every time you either see, hear, and/or touch him or her.

Without a doubt, we've all seen lightning flash in the sky and quite possibly there are those of us who may have been or almost hit by it due to encountering static electricity that made all the hairs on the back of your neck stand straight up. In a sense, that is how love is as you see someone who truly strikes your heart that he or she not only makes the hairs on the top of your head, back of your neck, and on your arms stand straight up; but also knocks you back as well to the point of being stunned. So stunned in fact that you would gladly have lightning strike twice because the first time you saw him or her your heart just stopped beating, but hopefully once you get hit the second time around your heart beats once again.

Oftentimes, when you do get an electrical shock you experience a spine tingling sensation from the tip of your toes, up your spine, and end at the top of your head. With that said, one can feel a tingling sensation when you hear the voice of that special someone either talking to you on the phone or whispering something sweet and/or romantic in your heart. For it’s when you hear his or her voice, every synapse in your brain is stimulated to where you go through feelings, as well as, emotions such as happiness, excitement, nostalgia, desire, giddiness, insanity, nervousness, etc. all at once. Let me tell you something, it's a feeling like no other to where I personally have experienced it only once in my lifetime and hope to again someday.

Let me ask you this question, do you think a kiss can be considered electrifying when it's shared with someone you truly love? In my opinion, yes because it's a moment that is more emotional rather than physical as you put your heart and soul into something that you may or may not close your eyes to. It's the power of a kiss, if it has meaning behind it and it's not forced, can send an unknown number of volts into someone that one can literally witness sparks between you and that guy or girl you're kissing. How many of you can honestly say the impact of someone's kiss left you absolutely numb that you not only couldn't remember your current location, but also your very own name as well.

In retrospect, there comes a point in a relationship, depending on how long one has been in it, where the following three questions have been asked that pertain to the electricity between you and the one you love. Those three questions are: 1.) Do you still continue to feel the hairs on the back of your neck stand straight up whenever you see him or her? 2.) Do you still continue to feel that spine tingling sensation whenever you hear his or her voice? 3.) Do you still continue to feel an electrifying spark whenever you kiss him or her on the lips? In the end, it's these three questions that if you answered yes to all three then you're most definitely able to always keep the electricity alive in each other to where it leaves both of you all shook up.
