A Great Time Had By All
In a long day of joy, I was able to finally slay the beast that was my statistics course. In a running theme of my life, I again came to an irritable impasse that occurs when I am tasked with busy work like so many formulas exist for what basic math could solve in no time. I have never gathered why we as a species make things so difficult for ourselves; like humanity doesn't ACTUALLY want to figure it out. What would we do then? Or are formulas for people that carry an instinct for math? Do these things actually do any good in the long run?

No Your Self.
Know what you know, then figure the rest out. If you answer the questions you know for sure, then you can use logic or intuition for the rest. Logic is simply taking something you don't know and using facts about it you do know to deduce the answer. Associations of things..... 7 degrees of Bacon! Intuition is that inner logic that associates things on a subkevel, and it generally gets it right. You don't have to know, you just have to reason.

With Apologies to 1993
What is love? If I Had a way to describe it, I would say it's what is right, and what is wrong (give me a sign). *Grin* Love is one of the most mystical of conversations that is argued about with great passion and gusto by many (for good reason). However, this is one of those things that people seek so long, desire so bad, that there is as much chance of achieving it successfully as there is finding a perverse offshoot that has nothing in common with the concept or to never finding it all.
When people chase and fixate on a passion, they can find ways to suit their desire to appear as moments of circumstance. Chasing skirts. Falling for anyone who pays attention. Fantasy. There are those who take any chance to to pair off, even when it causes them to change who they are and settle for what they feel they should want, as opposed to what they truly desire. Even still, some cross the line into illegal pursuits of fancy and their whims take on a much darker meaning.
The joys of love are many, and the thoughts of the many are of sharing life with a partner in joy and peace. As such, life (and love) gain there power from the power of possibility. It is only from keeping an open mind and self awareness that true love can be uncovered and grown in to. In defining love as happiness and a need of another, then no set of rules can prepare you for the eventuality of where love will inspire you. What you will find is that your answers will be intuitive, as opposed to logical. You will feel the arrival of your loved one, which is why often we recognize what our heart has known for some time. The heart knows what the mind eventually discovers.
Then there are those folks who are looking for a particular set of traits that the (perfect) mate possesses. By making a specific model, these people are left wanting and let many opportunities at happiness slip by for minor variances. While not setting an idea can lead to settling for an unsuitable partner, having to fine a set of details leads to a near impossibility of finding a person with all of the attributes. For some, it appears better to be alone than to accept anything other than Prince Charming.
"I define love thus: The will to extend one's selloff the purpose
of nurturing one's own or another's spiritual growth."
- M. Scott Peck

If we are just aware and accept what we sense.
