Love

When we are children, we are taught that True Love is the most wonderful miracle in the world. It's in fairy tales, TV shows, and I'm sure we all know at least one couple who have that perfect love that will last a lifetime. It's magical and wonderful and your lucky if you find your one True Love What the don't tell you in all those fairy tales is that True Love hurts as well. It can be cruel, blinding, and make you think thoughts you never thought you think in you whole life.

Love doesn't consider the problems that race, class, education, or a slew of others things in life. Love is a reaction of one person to another. It doesn't care about any of the above factors that can cause intense amounts of friction in life. Love just is. It's not rational, it doesn't find you the perfect mate and the perfect life.

I thought I had love with my first boyfriend. He was nice, he loved me, and he had what I was looking for at the time. He also broke my heart. After that I had other relationships, most of them lasting only a few weeks of months, and none of them ended well despite that fact that I did love the guys.

In all of the relationship I noticed a trend... none of the guys treated me very well. Sure, they were nice and all.. but they didn't stick around because they wanted something from me that I wouldn't give them. I found one person... One person I actually thought about having a serious relationship with since then.

I will say one thing for love though... True Love or just the normal kind, it IS wonderful when you have it. It teaches you patience and understanding. Right now I'm more patient then I have been my entire life.

Things hurt at the moment, and there's a good chance they'll hurt more later. That's just how life is. Love is illogical and no one can understand why it does the things it does.


Anyway, I'm rambling and it's late.

Later all.
