What is love? And this question... It will be asked time and time again! The fact is that humans are the only beings lucky enough to actually know it exists! The reality is that there will be many different answers for this question! We don't all love the same way...
To me, love is when you give a part of yourself to someone else and risk never getting it back! We are gregarious beings. No matter how badly you think you like being alone or how much you enjoy your space, we need companionship! Love is the feeling that emerges when such companionship is... what is the word I am looking for? Effective?
How can companionship be effective then?? That question also has too many answers... But you will know when! It's when that person adds to your happiness! And sometimes you can only reach happiness when you have gone through something so terrible that you are able to recognize the good amongst all the bad! Love is but one of many life's experiences! And life is hard. Ugly things can happen... that can overshadow the simple fact of being alive and part of this earth that we all share.
Believe me, I am more than aware that the word love brings many risks with it! Risk of betrayal, of getting hurt, of losing love. Way too many times, I've heard people tell me: It's gonna be all right in the end! Or, don't you worry, time heals all wounds! But some wounds are deep enough that they leave a mark! Sometimes right in the middle of our foreheads, where everyone can see, point, even judge! And those, trust me, those scars last forever!
So you can see, love is a complicated feeling! It can mean the world to some, while it can mean the end of all hope to others! Just like any other profitable investment, we have to risk BIG to even be able to really experience love, let alone receive it back! If love has taught me anything at all, it's that facing all these fears only makes you stronger in the end. As cheesy as that sounds! And that, in and of itself is worth all the hardships!
