You hear so many people around the world speaking about LOVE, but what exactly is it. What does the word LOVE mean? Does anyone even know?
The one thing that we all seem to have in common is that we all would like to be LOVED one day. My question is how will you know when you are truly in LOVE if you have never felt the feeling before. People say when you fall in LOVE you will know for sure, it will be something that you are just unable to control and it will take over you so fast. That's funny because I think I may have felt that way before maybe even now,but is it LOVE or that crazy word LUST. Or could lust eventually turn into LOVE. How do you really know? If LOVE is that strong it should last for more than a lifetime right? Well, why is it that so many people who say their in LOVE end up parting from one another later in life? I thought LOVE was something that we are just unable to control.
I tend to second guess everything in my life. Why? I have no idea, maybe because you can never be too sure. So with LOVE I don't believe people are always sure about it. That first feeling they think they feel for someone they take it and run because they want to be LOVED so badly. I have something for you to think about. I believe we are all chasing LOVE in this world but if we just stop for a moment and learned to LOVE ourselves along with our flaws just take a moment and look in the mirror we will know that we have already been LOVED by the best person who could possibly LOVE you. And that would be YOURSELF. Learn to LOVE yourself just as you are and I believe the rest will fall in place. There is no way you can allow someone to LOVE you in this life if you have no idea how to LOVE you.
Okay now girl! I wish that I was there to shake your hand. Me and my friend were just talking about this today. I say allow God to LOVE you first because that feels so amazingly beautiful and then let him teach you to how to love yourself. In one week I will be 30 and I have never truly been in LOVE! I just think that if you are in tuned with God and the holy spirit that you will know. However, I am having a pretty good time with myself. People can get kind of put off when you say that you love or are in love with yourself, but I don't really care so much about that these days. In any event someday, I do hope to fall in love, but because I do know how it feels to be loved by God and to love myself... I would hope that I would not settle for anything less that what is real! Great post girl! :o)
ReplyDeleteI was so not sure how I felt about this post but after this comment.....Thanks girl!!!!
ReplyDeleteyou made a lot of really valid points here i think. i'm the type to second-guess everything in my life also but i'm slowly learning that when it comes to matters of the heart, it makes very little sense to allow your "critical thinking skills" to take over. let love take over.
ReplyDeleteand i absolutely agree with the loving yourself before allowing yourself to be loved by another. i think that's the part people miss out on because they're so consumed with wanting to be loved as validation of some kind. or security somehow.
i'm learning these things for myself with each passing day but i'm only human so i forget sometimes. thank you for reinforcing what i already knew to be true, thank you for reminding me :)
