If I could redraw the love sign, it would be the infinity symbol<br />
to replace the current love sign. A simple symbol, which looks<br />
like the number 8 turned on its side. An English mathematician<br />
named John Wallis on the 17th century first introduced infinity<br />
symbol. The symbol was to represent the idea of a sum that is<br />
larger than any number that can ever be created.<br />
∞<br />
For me, the complexness as<br />
well as permanence the infinity symbol<br />
represents weaves in and out of many<br />
forms of love; love doesn’t necessarily<br />
limited to love of your boyfriends or girlfriends.<br />
Love is more than that, it could<br />
be love for family, country, passion, God<br />
and so on all have different qualities. I<br />
read one of the articles of Julian Baggini—philosopher—talked<br />
about variants<br />
of love, he mentioned that love has its<br />
variants: blind, one-sided, tragic, steadfast,<br />
fickle, reciprocated, misguided, unconditional.<br />
Therefore, the complexity<br />
and great power of love is suitable to be<br />
represented in form of an infinity symbol.<br />

“Love is infinite. There is no beginning<br />
and no end. There’s no starting point<br />
and no finishing line. Love just is. Love<br />
is born, grows, matures, and sometimes<br />
it dies. But the memory will remain with<br />
you for the rest of your breathing hours.<br />
You will fall in love, you will fall out of<br />
love. But you will love again. You always<br />
do.” – Mia Asher, Arsen<br />
