Just a little something worth sharing...i found it somewhere..
Love. What is love? There is no "REAL" definiton for love. Love to different people holds different meanings. Love to me is when your heart skips a beat whenever you see that person. Love is when your eyes meet across the room and the world just stops spinning. Love is when u get that stupid, sickly smile on your face whenever you think of that special somebody.
Some people may think that love hurts. Based on a Chinese proverb, it is stated that when you hit somebody, it is because you love them. And when you scold somebody, it is because you care for them. I do not agree with this. Love doesn't hurt. If it does, then what is the point of ever falling in love? Love is a beautiful thing. Love does not abuse. But thanks to this perseption, most people think that love is abuse How can you love a person yet abuse them? Many abuse cases go unreported because according to the abused, their abuser abuses them because he loves them.
Anotherr frequent question asked about love is how to differentiate between true love and puppy love? From my point of view, true love is when you are willing to do stupid things for that person without even considering the consequences. Such as, driving all the way just to get the person ice cream ( THIS I WOULD DO FOR ****** *** ) or saving up every penny just to get that person something nice. Puppy love is merely a crush you have on that person. Puppy love is more superficial because most people who experience puppy love only falls for their crush's looks and not who that person really is. Crushes usually pass after a while. I mean that sure, you are sad, but you get over it True love is when you wait forever for that ONE person, knowing you might never even get a chance to be with them. It's like doing things for that person, no matter how crazy, hoping that one day maybe, JUST MAYBE, he or she will feel the same way for you.
Then, there's love and lust. Love is when you call that person in the middle of the night just to hear their voice. The difference with lust is that you call to have phone sex with that person and not to talk to him or her. Love is when on Valentine's Day, you sent her a bouquet of roses and take the time to make a card for her just to touch her heart. Lust is when you call her to come over to your place for a "booty call" , otherwise known as sex. Love is when you hold hands and you feel that she or he gives you inner strength. Lust is when your hand wanders to places you should not be touching. Love is when you look at that oerson and smile sheepishly and say, "Hi". Lust is when you open your eyes and do not remember the name of the person next to you in bed.
A question that has recently got everyone whispering is whether gay love is wrong. In my opinion, gay people are just as human as we are. So, there should not be any discrimination. I mean like, I've got a lot of gay friends and I don;t see what's wrong with them being together. Maybe because gay love is unorthodox so people find it weird? It maybe weird but it definitely isn't wrong. A straight couple is as much in love as any gay couple. Love is when two people, no matter gay or straight, feel affectionate towards each other. Both couoles feel the same way Both couples feel as though a part of them is missing whenever they are apart. I just don't see why everyone's making a big deal out of nothing.
Love can also be applied to friendship. I hold all my friends very close to my heart. I believe that life is like a tapestry and your friends are threads woven into that tapestry Some friends walk through your life without leaving fottprints but true friends leave their mark somewhere in your heart. I also believe in the "mirror theory". This theory states that the person you love is the exact copy of you, hence, a mirror. You cannot see yourself without a mirror. Friends are you "mirror" and they show you who you really are. The same theory applies for couples. You might complain about them but in retrospect, they have exactly the same qualitiesas you have. I believe that you must no be possessive in order for a relationship to work. Have you tried to hold sand? If you hold too tightly, all the sand will trickle out. But if you hold firmly, yet loosely, the sand stays. All couples must treat each other with respect. Love is built on trust and respect. If you don't respect and trust a person, how can you love him or her? Another thing about being too possessive is that your significant other feels like they don't have any freedom. There's no point falling in love if love feels like a prison. If a person wants to leave, let them. If he or she comes back to you, then it's love. If they don't then it was never meant to be. Painful as it may be, sometimes the best way is to let go. Love cannot be forced. It is either or not.
In conclusion, the definition of love is really up to the individual. When you have done all you can and the otehr person stil does not love you, there's no point forcing it. Leave everything in God's hands. Only He knows what he has in store for you. Last but not least, you should always tell the people you love that you love them because you never know what might happen to them. They might levae any second. The worst way to miss somebody is to be right beside them knowing that you may never see, feel or touch that person again.
