The L word

What is  love? What is it that makes love so strong and important?Why do we feel the need to be loved by someone else to feel whole;why do we need to have someone else tell us we are special, when that is something we should be able to tell ourself.

We live in a society where when someone says they love you,you feel obliged to say it back. We live in a world where the word 'love' has lost all meaning. We throw it around, and use it, when really we don't always mean it. If you turn on the radio or a music channel right now, most chances are the song playing is about love or heartbreak. Every song, every film, every show is about love. Love in a movie against real life tends to be totally different: one is full of romance passion and over coming all obstacles, then in real life there is the tender side but also the arguments and hurt that comes along with it. The movies only tell half the story.

I know I sound like a hater of love,but I'm not, I just think if love is so special, why do we throw it around like it's nothing. Why do we count all ended relationships as failures, because if they were worth it all then surely it wasn't a failure merely an attempt for happiness, and an ending to a chapter in your story.

What even is real love? Is it the passion? The romance? The hurt? Or it just living in the moment? 

I think that throughout your life you change the way you see love. Love can be whatever you want it to be, as long as it's worth it. 

Be you, love yourself for it, and others will follow.

That's all for now. I know I haven't been posting for a while (oops) but I will be trying to post more frequently hopefully, so please keep reading my blogs and tell me what you think of them, it really means a lot. I hope you like it (if not I'm sorry).Please feel free to leave a comment below (if not oh well, whatever floats your boat).
