From, Dopamine and Serotinin, on behalf of our other friends.
To, The Owner of the human body, hosting hypothalamus and pituitary glands from which we're secreted.
They call us hormones in lay man terms. We're responsible for all your routine metabolisms, and activities.For all of your varied moods.! For all of yours highs and lows.!
We're writing this to you in utter frustration. We're functioning round the clock, for automating all your metabolic activities, getting whacked up to and fro as per your oscillating moods. We realize that is what we're made for, and that it's not fair to complain. But again, sometimes, we're forced to muse, to some of the morons like you, who don't even understand how we function. Our work is not like your office timings. We attend your call, anytime, anywhere like a humble slave.
Now, it's our time to retort, yell at you. Allow us to vent out our long suppressed hard feelings. Excuse us, this time, as anyhow we're going to continue our good work of serving your bodily needs forever. Let me first explain, how we function, everytime you see any anything attractive. ;) We don't have sundays. Our sundays are the days, on which your gaze don't fall on anyone attractive on your opposite sex. Just like how you're terrorized seeing an issue to be resolved in your application, we have a series of complex things to do, whenever your gaze fall on a girl. Me(Dopamine) will get released by some part in the midst of your head, triggering a series of chemical reactions, that wakes up my friend serotinin, whose primary responsibility is to make you insane, to make you bore a deaf ear to everything around you, and have a blind eye to whatever you see, and other such stupid symptoms of love. :)
Adrenalin, our other friend, whose prime task is in managing other metabolic activities, also plays a pivotal role,in this, making your cheeks go flush, and hands clam. All this happens, while your gaze is still fixed on the girl. Do realize, it is not the beauty of the girl, that makes you go bonkers over her, but it is the outcome of our undaunting effort, that catastrophes your emotions, gives you a sense of infinitness, a tingy feel, that makes you float. Before you misinterpret us, lets clarify you, we're not responsible for your lusts. That is entirely handled by our friends in other department.,viz., testosterone and by some of his other colleagues in lust department. We're from Love department. :) (Needless to say, we'll used to have inter departmental collaboration for some of the processes.)
The functions handled by the lust department, are comparatively simple as it just involves nurturing some of the bodily changes. Each time, when your gaze(on the girl), is routed to our department, we'll have a tough time, responding to it. Technically, the sight of the girl will be converted into electrical impulses, and transported through the neurons to the respective places in the brain . Our task, not merely gets over by ensuing the bodily changes, but we also work with your brain. We alter the way, you think, your thought impulses, your prioritized tasks at that point of time, and that it is the most difficult thing to do. How difficult and complex it is, is beyond your scope of understanding.
We always wish your reactions owing to attraction is limited to lust department, and not bi-passed towards us. It's like you happen to see a girl, your eye pupils extends wide, if she manages to catch your attention. The signal is passed on to your neural chambers. You get a series of consequent physical changes, which eventually gets over when you indulge in other work, or until you see another attractive girl. That part ends there.
If by case, the request is routed to our department(love), first we need to trigger a plethora of chemical and biological changes, that has to do with your body, which is just a cake walk. The ultimate difficulty ensues with our task involving your brain. Technically, it is very complicated to explain you.If at all, I have any means of communicating with the Creator, I'll ask him, on what basis he created the model of a human body. It's like a series of intelligent,and bright sub-systems made to serve a stupid main system, (the human), who is not even capable of understanding the functionalities aiding him in his activities. :)
Okay, lemme continue on my explanation about the process. So, you've seen a girl. Enough of all the other minor changes. Enough of your increased heart beats. Now, it's time to deal with the most complex part of your body, Your Brain.! Having decided to route the girl to the love department, we need to clear all the pending tasks / schedules running in your brain on hold, and assign this love task, with high priority. On that point of time, nothing is of prime importance, than the girl.
Now, this task, like a viral, gets infested within you. Worst happens when you feed this viral and nurture it with your stupid imaginations. Your attraction towards her, moves on to the next stage, attachment, which is much more complex and dangerous. Now, your brain occasionally tries to prove itself,that it's not as crooked as what we think, and it tries to convince you, saying it's just attraction and not love. It tries to transfer your case to lust department and close the issue, once and for all. But, in most of the cases, it just don't happen easily. Again, you tend to chew the issue, analyzing each aspect of it, looping through endless dilemmas, before settling up with a decision. Only GOD knows, the complexities, and the circuitous side effects, we handle while you're in this confused phase. :(
Please do understand that, not all cases, handled in our department, is necessarily pertaining to love. Most of the cases, we've handled are the ones, in the intermediate stages, in which you're not sure of, if it is love. We just cant understand, why the hell you people fall in love???!. They always say, love occurs as a result of some divine intervention and all such craps... It's we who is responsible for your love. Please realize that.
One fact we cant deny though. Who is again making us to act in such a way, when you're in love.? We dont do anything on our own; we're just programmed to act in that way, and who programmed us? May be the creator? Then the thesis about divine intervention may hold true. :)
Anyway, we're not in a commanding position, to order you not to fall in love. We're just offering our advice as a well wisher, to identify, clearly whats true love, and whats not, than to get confused yourself, often. :)
In case if love symptoms strikes you anytime, kindly send us an intimation earlier, so that we can prepare accordingly. :)
Thanks a lot for listening to our musings. :)
Yours Faithful, Serotinin and friends..
