The LUNGS… coz I can’t breathe without you…….. L O V E! …. you are the air I breathe. Happy Valentine’s everyone!
Definitely the Skin. Being the largest organ in the body, “I love you with all of my skin” is saying a lot!! Being with the one you love can warm your skin, or cause your skin to flush (depending on the activity). You can enjoy the sensation of their touch or their kisses and breath on your neck, which can only be appreciated via the nerves in the skin. Whether people touch lips, give hugs, caress or massage each other or just kiss the skin of the baby that was a product of their love for one another; it is through the skin that we express our love for one another. You don’t just warm my heart, you warm my skin. Literally.
The skin because of the warm embrace you get from a hug, the passion you get from a kiss, and the love you generate from holding hands.
I’m going to have to go with the underdog – the intestines – as they can be seen to represent the long and bumpy path that represents finding our true love in life! In the intestines, nutrients and water we need to survive return to our bodies while waste is filtered out. Same idea can be applied to people we meet. We move through life crossing paths with all different types of people, letting those who harm us or those we don’t need pass by, while always keeping a close hold on those we can’t live without! And what organ better rhymes with Valentine than intestine, anyways?!
I say the gallbladder, come on I mean it stores yer bile and what other organ best represents how most of us feel on valentines as we stare at “those people” who are oh so affectionate on valentines day.. I mean come can’t ya just taste the bile rise up when ya see em?
