What is Invisible, Illogical, and Powerful Enough to Start a War?

Done scratching your head?

The answer is ATTRACTION!

Many of us have seen the effects of attraction, but I don't think anyone has physically seen attraction.

Many of us have thought about attraction, but not many of us ever totally understands why "Guy A" falls for "Girl B," yet "Girl B" falls for "Guy C."

Many of us have read and heard about the epic Trojan War, brought on by the theft of Helen, but not many of us realize that modern attraction can still be just as powerful.

While my goal in this post isn't to explain or advise on how to create attraction, I do plan on demonstrating its power and defiance for logic.

I think the best example is the abusive relationship. Why do people often hear of stories where a guy will abuse his girlfriend yet she will still love and care about him? The girl is so attracted to the guy, that she believes that her boyfriend is still worth it.

Or what about the more commonplace example of some guy going out and buying some girl a car, a house, and hundreds of roses? Let's not forget about the pages of love letters and never ending phone calls.

Tons of examples exist, but more would be redundant. Attraction, the essence of love, is powerful. Powerful enough that one is willing to do ANYTHING for someone whom they feel great attraction for.

Do you have any crazy stories of the power of attraction? Do you doubt its power? Comment away.
