Love Thy Jeep

How many times have we heard the famous quotation 'love thy neighbor'. But very rearly have we heard the other part which is 'hate thine enemy'. Maybe hate like love has many diffrent forms. Well the Greeks considered there to be four quite different forms of love..(see wiki)

• eros - erotic love
• stergein - brotherly/familial love
• philia - deep affection
• agape - the other kind, its meaning being somewhat disputed
  

Similarly there are different levels people love there jeep. I guess every jeep driver loves his jeep, if not they would drive a car. I came across a poem while searching through forums for a good winch which i think describe the utmsot love one can have for something made of steel. This is a poem is by Randel J Thomas (and bit edited by me..sorry i dont have the link for the original). Hope u see my point.

I love my jeep for resons unseen
I love it esp when its not clean
I love my jeep with all my hart
I love it even when its falling apart

I love my jeep for things it can do
crashing through the mud, not sticking in the goo
It goes where ever i want to go
get me there with hardly ever a tow


my girl told me, its her or the truck
poor thing she never had much luck
i told her i cant imagine being with my jeep with out one single day
this jeep is mine with AND with me it will stay
