How do you know when you’re in love with someone? How do you know that a person is right for you to spend the rest of your life with? Are they someone you are willing to wake up next to every morning? Are they someone whose hand you won’t mind holding even when you are furious mad at them? Love changes as you hold on to it, evolves over the years spent with that person. Are you someone who can appreciate that love, even if it takes you in an unexpected direction?
Too willingly are people throwing themselves at each other. Marriage is as common as divorce. Why is humanity so willing to admit they are in love, only to have it ripped away from them in the sudden realization that they weren’t in love with that person; they were simply infatuated with the idea of what that person represented. I’m saying this generally; this doesn’t apply to everyone. Just the idea that so many people are killing what the original definition of love was; is the future going to bring about the death of what true love is? What it means?
Can you look someone in the eye and tell them that you love them without having any doubts, jealousies, grudges? Can you unconditionally give your heart to someone, even if they turn away? Can you keep on loving, even through the mistakes and arguments that have been made through your relationship?
Can you say you truly love?
