What love represents to me

I was walking down the street, while listening to a song, and realized what love represents to me. 

I have never believed in soul mates, nor in faith, and I definitely never believed that you are writing your own destiny. But I always saw life as a game of Poker: Texas Hold'em. I strongly believe, in life, someone (depending on your religion, but we mostly call him God) is giving to each one of us 2 cards. Those cards you cannot control and you can never anticipate what they will be. But you can use them to build a "good hand" and win the game. Because after receiving each one of us 2 cards, that "someone" puts on the table 5 cards ("the flop", "the turn" and "the river"). You also don't know what they will be and you (alone) decide if you think that the cards on the table can build an interesting (wining) game with the cards you hold in your hands (a "good" combination of 5 cards will help you win the game). Anyway, if you don't know the game, you can read more about it on Wikipedia :)

But today, while listening to this specific song, I realized what love represents to me: I think each heart (or, if you want, you can call it soul) has its own frequency (tune, melody) and only some ears can hear it. I don't think only one pair of ears in the whole world can hear your tune, but only the right ears can hear a specific melody. Maybe this is a way to explain there isn't only one big love for each one of us, but more. Not a lot more, but more. And depending on how loud your tune is one day or where you are truly playing it, different ears catch it; if they are on the same frequency, they hear it and, if you are lucky, you might even end up having a relationship. But sometimes we don't play it out loud or we don't play it to the right audience.

Yes, I think I can accept this - it does not limit me, and in the same time, it does not kill my romance or idealism. If you feel like sharing your own opinions, please comment below :)
