Love... A 4 Letter Word

 

            What is love? What causes people to fall in love? Is love a false hope to a happy ending or a connection that two people share? Everyone says they fall in love, but why do they fall out of love? Everyone has their own opinion about love and this is mine.

            Love to me isn’t a color, race, religion, size, age or sexual preference. Love is a connection between two people that keep them together even when they fight. I know it says in the bible that love should be between a man and women but what if it’s not? I know that god forgives people when they make the wrong decisions but what about if you love a person of a different color? The connection will help the man and women make a lifetime of memories that they will share with their children and great grand children.

Love is something that may come more than once; maybe it isn’t your time to love someone. I don’t think that love cares if it’s a black man and a white women, I think it has to do with what people feel on the inside. The connection and love between took people is being able to look past all their faults and all the ugly times they have shared to see the good in them and what is pure. Everything happens for a reason and you have to believe that, maybe you found love but lost it… maybe it wasn’t your time with that person you can’t just give up faith. The love and connection between those two people is so powerful and strong that it can with stand anything that life gives them, and they can love each other unconditionally and forever.

I know that love isn’t my strong point because I have only had 4 boyfriend in my 18 years of life and they either cheated on me, fell out of love, was too busy for me or didn’t mean it. Love is something that I had once but I lost it and I know that love is so strong and powerful that it takes a lot to look someone in the eye and say that you screw up. Love is giving the other person your heart and they either drown it in the ocean or they save it and keep it alive. Love can either be a four letter word with no meaning or a chance of a life time to share with someone. Love can happen in an instant or grow over a lifetime.

Love is also looking at the person and when you say ‘I love you’ you mean it and it isn’t a lie covered with pretty words. Love doesn’t care about your job or the way you look. Love is something that when it happens you may not realize it yet but it is going to happen. With every boyfriend or girlfriend that breaks your heart you have to realize that it brings you closer to the one that was meant for you. You have to think that it hurts to be broken so just be careful when giving your heart to someone, but I’m not saying you should keep it locked up.

Love is something that I know will happen and I don’t care if he is purple I will love him and know that my family will come to understand that and if they don’t oh well because I know what is in my heart.

Love a four letter word with so much meaning and hope.

This write is so true
I also know another thing .. on true love
Not everyone gets their true love, or 'The One'
Some are destined to be happy in love
While others get broken and damned always in love
Those who are happy in love will perhaps face the 'broken' love one day
As for those who are often broken, or think they are so doomed in love .. they should not lose hope .. as i believe that it is better that you are broken in love, than you never fell in love at all
So i think we must be at least glad that we have known love, and got broken
Than not having fallen for somebody, or vice versa, at all
You wrote on the two sides of love and it reminded me of my poem 'The Trap of Love' - my dark age :/
And indeed, love is only a mere word .. but which means damn lot!!!!! The world revolves around it
Nice Job Loony Lace xD xD

Wow.. so much honesty flowing from your heart and questions which I believe could have different answers that vary for each.. Love is something that is work.. can a person fall out of love.. yes they can.. over time if that love is not treated properly.. and tended correctly.. some mistakes are great and I believe compromise is hard for so many.. that can vary from person to person.. you have to love yourself first.. then pursue it.. but remember that the person you love is HUMAN.. you may be able to compromise but they might not be able to ... the lucky ones find a partner who wants love as much as they do.. work at it and never give up. So much goes into relationships... but as long as you take out the positive from each relation it will make you a better and stronger person each and every time.. and I hope you find what you are looking for one day.. as everyone is worthy of love.. respect.. happiness!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!! =)
