Love is about the love for everything in life...To really experience and appreciate love, you have to be able to give it or you have no true measure of recieving it.
Quite simply put, the next best way of describing it is 'Karma.'

hah the other day I watched the film 'Happy Feet' because my little brother wanted to - that weird penguin film that was in the cinemas a few weeks ago.

Anyway, its just a random animation about a dancing penguin- I really didn't want to watch it but had to. And the film started with some weird version of 'golden slumbers' playing which was weird, and then the end of the film had a weird version of 'the end' playing and the penguin says the lyrics 'and in the end the love you take is equal to the love you make' directly to the camera- and it made a massive deal over that being like the moral of the story and I was like 'BEEEAAATLLLLEEEEEEES!!' because I'm (not) cool.

I didn't really see how those lyrics had anything to do with the story whatsoever. But it showed that people find relevance in that lyric today. I guess you could interpret it in many ways- definately one that gets you thinking. It must be important though- for a modern film to make it the point of the film

sorry I'm being long and rambling as usual

I think "the love you take is equal to the love you make" is the
meaning of life. maybe the beatles gave us the meaning of life.
without beatles, there would be no meaning to life... right?

But seriously, I really like this line. And I agree with Kaleidoscope_Eyes and Tara_the_beatle_freak - it does make one think. The only thing that bothers me slightly is the "love you [i
take[/i]" bit. For me it's more about receiving love, rather than taking it. But that's just probably me being fussy with words.  ;D


So are you saying that if I say"Hey I took a letter" is the same as "Hey  i recieved a letter"? How did u work that one out? I do see what you mean though, Octie. Bu I think Paulie was warning John. He was saying like "You gave lotsa love to this group, and now you are taking it lots of it away"? Perhaps it has a doble meaning...  ::)

Interesting ... like an advise/answer to some lines of Come Together, for example? ;) ...

... I think Paul joked at John a little when he "lent him a hand" with the lyrics of Sun King ... Sun King was recorded at the same time, more or less ... but the lyrics to The End were added (the first takes hadn't got any lyrics) shortly after Come Together was finnished  ... did Paul change his mind a bit then? 8) ...

Ah, but you have misunderstood me, Kaleidoscope_Eyes... I actually meant that receive isn't the same as take, and that I think receive is more appropriate... ah well, doesn't matter  ;D
