True Love

True Love! Can anyone really tell me what is it all about? Have you wondered where this word came from? Definition of love by Wikipedia, Love represents a range of human emotions and experiences related to the senses of affection and sexual attraction. The word love can refer to a variety of different feelings, states and attitudes, ranging from genetic pleasure to intense interpersonal attraction.

Some look at it biblically while others thinks of it emotionally. I personally view it both biblically and emotionally. This four letter word has been widely used and mostly abused by many people. I hate the way the word has been misused and carelessly abused by different meanings. There are different types of love, agape, parental and the love that joins discrete definition of opposite sex as they start sharing their lives together. There is no discrete definition of the word true love. Definition of the word depends on individual’s point of view. It is subject to debate and I would say it is a strong feeling or illusion that starts in the mind and develop slowly in ones inner being.

The word true love has been misused in many ways. Whether it is love at first sight, temporary or long term. I think most of the people are looking for true love. When a man claims to fall in love with a lady at first sight and claims he feels attracted to her, is this love surely? To me this is just a lust at first sight. True love is no longer there and the urge that drive people towards each other is not love but lust. Men are not attracted to women for love but for sexual satisfaction. Love is in most cases misinterpreted and many wonder if does exist. I always wonder, will my man still love me like before if I am old and not attractive anymore. Many of my friends believe that love between a man and a woman is imaginary, there is nothing like love but only the power of the loin and outlook that attracts.

Misuses of the power of love has become more of a tradition and is a reality. It is passed from generation to generation and who are to break this tradition? I believe in the power of love and not lust but in practice love is not elusive. True love is developed from within and it is molded and nurtured by our feelings. Love is a precious gift from God and it should be watered well and taken care of or else it withers and dies off. You might be wondering who came up with this word love? I wonder too but who knows where it came from? It is our obligation to take care of this aspect of love and to handle it with care. Love is life, it wins all and makes someone feel special. Appreciate each other and never expect the return. Just learn to love and it will multiply joy and add spice to your life, it is thoughtful and gives a reason to live, smile and be ever happy!
