Thoughts on Love.
Love, it comes all shapes and sizes and forms. Every-one’s definition of love is different, however. I personally do believe in love at first sight. It sounds cheesy, but I don’t think so. Sometimes people just feel a connection without even saying a word to each-other. I have been in love, though it took awhile to even realize it. It wasn’t at first sight.
Some people take it too seriously sometimes though. I think you should actually get to know the person first, not just two days after you meet, you get married. I literally saw a post on Facebook like that, that’s just ridiculous. The person you get married to should be your best friend, a person you can tell anything to, a person you trust. You can’t have a relationship without trust, or else it’s just chaos.
Everyone deserves love, because love is being happy with somebody you can share your life with. Age, gender, and other differences in love shouldn’t be such a big deal. I’m not talking about a +10 year age difference or anything, but age shouldn’t really matter.
I honestly find teens now-a-days to be too sexually active and take relationships too seriously. Fact is more then half of high-school teens have had sex already. I personally think that you shouldn’t have sex until marriage, but that’s just my opinion. Honestly my friend in December had a baby and she’s like 15. It’s outrageous. I think they made the right decision however when they had an open adoption.
One thing I find nice is old couples. When they hold hands and such. I like hearing stories about people that have been together for like 40-50 years, not stories of “Oh, my first spouse I was with lasted 5 years, the next spouse was 2 years..” and so on. What I find sad is when people loose their spouse, and they’ve been together for quite a while and have been extremely happy with it. Many people loose their spouse to war, age, accidents, and sadly sometimes murder.
Love is not only about a significant other. It’s about loving yourself for who are, because if you can’t love yourself what makes you think somebody else can love you? It’s also about loving the people you have in your life and being grateful for them. Your friends and family. Many people may not have what you have, or they are going through the same thing as you. SO be thankful for what you have.
