Oh the complexities of love! If the human race shares nothing else, not family, not ambitions, not fears, then they will always share one thing. Love. And the need for it. Lately it seems as though I’ve witnessed love around me and on a personal level with all of the possible complications! We go from Choosing between two lovers, allowing yourself to be loved, unintentionally hurting the ones we love, dealing with the demands of love, and putting yourself above someone else’s hopes of loving you. Confusing I know. But isn’t it always that way? Doesn’t it always seem like no matter how green the grass is in that moment that someway somehow the weeds seem to pop right back up and you have to constantly keep cutting them down! I mean what is the point really? That’s the rhetorical question we always ask ourselves. But it’s a good question when you think about. What IS the point? It would seem so obvious to give one of those “Love is the greatest feelings and blah blah blah” answers but I like to think a little deeper than that. I think that the point is. We know everyone needs or wants love rather they admit it or not. As humans we want to be able to give somebody something so fundamental and powerful because if you have nothing you can always give love in abundance, and it’s free! Monetarily anyway. Because if we cannot answer one other question in life and its mysteries. We know people need love. It’s natural for us to want it ourselves “If you Give You Shall receive” so when love isn’t returned and hearts are broken you feel as though we are not given what is owed to you, what you think is yours. But in reality the only love we have control over completely is the love for ourselves. We decide that. It’s the foundation that we build our love for other people upon and if we know the true love for ourselves from within then it will be easy for us to see the difference between what’s true love and falsified love, who we love the most and who we love being with the most. It makes things a lot easier trust me, because if you don’t listen to your intuition you’re bound to fail in the game of love. Even though all of this is so that one moment when you feel overcome with emotion of joy that someone else can put in your heart and the feeling that you and another person are internally connected seem worth it. Despite all of the drama, arguments, confusion, tears, frustration, and heartbreaks, those moments’ simple moments are worth. I mean, they are worth it right? Just something to think about…..
