The Big L
If you were asked to describe what love is, where would you begin? You know how adults in the movies always start by talking about the birds and the bees when asked that one question they dread being asked, so where would you start with love? Would you start with God loving us so much he sent His Only-Begotten Son to die for our sins, or would you start with your own personal love story?
Ask anyone who has ever been a friend of mine and they will tell you without a moment's hesitation that I am driven by love. I am what you could call "a hopeless romantic". Everything that I do is because of love, I love everyone and everything. Some say I'm just too friendly and that will encourage people to just take advantage of me, but that's just who I am. I have love for everyone I meet. Every relationship I have been in, no matter how dismal it was, I was in love. Now I ask myself, how will I know if it's true love? How will I know that I have found my tree to earth, my cloud to sky, and more? How will I know it's real?
Trust me when I say that the last thing I ever expected myself to be writing about on this blog is love. I believe that topic has just been overplayed in every way possible, by the media at large and every other person on this planet, so hopefully this is the first and the last time.
Besides the amount of coverage this area gets, nobody can ever really say that they know the definition of love. I know many would argue that I don't know what love is, and I would agree. I'm still a kid, what do I know about love? Does that mean that a 40-year-old woman going through a divorce knows what love is? One thing I know for sure about love though, is that it's a feeling that is felt by all, and depending on how you feel it, that is how you will define it, that's what it is...
Whether I have found my soul mate or not, I may never know until I send out my love and get it back ten-fold. As for me, I'm going to keep loving until I do find that...
Who knows, maybe I already have... Have you?
