This morning, I went to the bush to cut SOMETHING, I used my strength and power to cut one particular small tree but it was just returning my cutlass back to me like it fortified itself against my sharp cutlass. I got furious and added more strength, I discovered I was just wasting time. Then I came back to my senses because I was already feeling the pains in my hand.

Just a four letter word? What is thi tantalizing feeling? This feeling called love!?
