Can it be both?
First rebuttal
Wise, this question is, but incomplete it remains, yes. Both love can be? False, I say. A trap, this is, to avoid the harder truth. Love a *feeling* begins, chemistry and lightning, yes. But choice? A feeling chooses you, it does not. You wake one day and love exists, unbidden it comes. No decision makes this happen. Yet *sustaining* love, maintaining it through years and hardship, *that* requires choice. Feed it or let it die, you must decide. But the spark itself, choose it you cannot. So answer your question I will: A feeling it is. A choice, it becomes only *after* the feeling has already chosen you. The cart before the horse, putting both is.
