Love is fulfilling, and uplifting. it makes you smile, when you are down. it like, completes you really. Everyone wants to be loved. Even just love from your family feels amazing. Love is so much more than movies, and books. I mean, yes it's not as perfect as in the movies and books. Love has flaws, as well as people. It's beautiful, but has the power to destroy you too. Love can last forever, as long as two people really are in love with one another, and are willing to fight through the bad times, to get back to the good. You can't expect love to work if you're going to walk away at the first sign of trouble. My great aunt, and my uncle met when they were 16, they married when they were 17. I see them together now, and it's beautiful. They're just still the same. They're old, but they still love one another you can see. They still fight, but that doesn't mean anything. They're not like the old couples people talk about, they're realistic. They argue more than say i love you, they ignore one another, more than they talk etc. But it's life. Just having one another, means they're happy. They don't need to say i love you every second, they've been together for over 20 years, they know already. Love is beautiful, and yes it has it's pain, but it's mostly beauty. Love doesn't hurt at all.
I was talking about love with a friend, and i just completely went over board. I thought i'd share it, because i don't know. I guess i like it. So enjoy, share your opinions if you like.

╰☆╮I agree with this. There are so many people that say they love someone, and at the first sign of trouble they run away. They change their facebook status to single, they shame whoever the person is, and that isn't how love works. You work through your problems (so long as you weren't cheated on or something, then I can't support sticking around haha). Just like you said, fights happen, people get the cold shoulder, but if you love someone you work through it all and stay together. Ah, such truth.╰☆╮

Exactly. But it seems like generations are starting to give up so easily now. I would not throw away.. read moreExactly. But it seems like generations are starting to give up so easily now. I would not throw away something because things got tough. Yes of course, the cheating thing totally understandable, get rid of them haha. But if it's just a bump in the road, FIX IT!

This definitely comes straight from the heart. I'm sort of a skeptic in the love department,I don't believe in true love in the slightest for example (I also think it's more codependency what is shown in the movies as true love) and I know it's extremely complicated and can be felt for people unworthy of it, a very horrific circumstance, but it can also be beautiful

I think the love is movies is pretty artificial. But yes.
Thanks for reviewing.
You my dear are an optimist in your glowing, rainbow colored bubble - that's what my dad tells me! First, there is absolutely nothing wrong with being an optimist. You see the world as a beautiful and happy place. You see the good, the bad, the good outweighing the bad. This shines in your truly optimistic view of love. NEVER lose that. It is true and beautiful and you will have something worthwhile in the end. xo (:

A really nice little piece you've wrote here. It reminds me of one of my favourite quotes by Stephen King, “If there is love, smallpox scars are as pretty as dimples. I'll love your face no matter what it looks like. Because it's yours.”
I enjoy writing a lot, and i aspire to be a journalist. I'm happy to receive feedback, especially if it's about grammar. I come online when i have time.
