LOVE

Many of us often fall in love and get attached to the 'other half ' so much so that we tend to become dependent on them and to trust them with all your heart. But what we tend to forget is that, very often we are led into an illusion or concept in which we call it LOVE! It is so beautiful when we are in love, everything seems perfect, nights are more romantic, every angle viewed are like from a romantic scene in which there are positive and comfort music playing as the background. Even the fights between the two love birds are so cute! Everything just seem to be amazing at that moment. They can be seating at a table facing each another without uttering a single word and yet the moment could be said as magical.

LOGICAL?

I would say yes but hold on a minute! That is only for a short period of time. In which maybe most to most 2 years at least. According to many studies done by psychologist and physiologist, it is due to several chemicals that are released in the brains that makes us feel in love and makes everything so beautiful. These chemicals would only last to the max of 2 years and after that the brain would need other stimulus to release those chemicals again. So very often people or couple tend to break up after 2 years of courtship and it is because they say that things have change, there is no more chemistry, the attraction is just not there anymore, and very often they have fallen for another person.  

So then what is LOVE?

Love is just Love! There is no specific answer from my perspective. When a person decides to be in love, they have to decide if they really want the relationship to work out or not and to stick together no matter what happens. Better people will appear but it is about just choosing who you would rather be with and to continue trusting. When you find a perfect love, stick and hang on unto it because a time will come when you will regret letting it go. Not everyone will love you the way that special one would love and give you their everything. Love is rare in nowadays context. Love is very often mistaken or replaced with the intention of having a hidden agenda such a sex, revenged, popularity or wealth. But in a true love relationship, you would not find a single hidden agenda behind it all. It is just so pure and yet sometimes you find it clueless as what the relationship would bring except happiness, joy and peace. Love is when you let go of someone and yet the person would find a thousand of reasons to come back and to be with you (not after going around having other partners and then coming back to you). Love is when a person respects you with everything they have, trust you, show kindness to you and always being there when you need them the most and at the least time. Of course human love might not be perfect because each of us have our very own flaws and do mistakes at times, but it is about accepting them and forgiving the mistakes done with the knowledge that they would not repeat it again. Love at the end of it have to be a mutual feelings and understanding of two souls and the in-depth search of who they are.

Do not take love for granted and do not misuse it because one day when you realize the value of love you would regret it.
