Love

What is love?

I was having a heated discussion last night on what love really was and whether "the one" and true love really existed. Did it only ever happen in the scripts of Hollywood? I have to say I am one of those people that believe that true love exists and fairy-tales can happen, albeit only for those of us who are lucky enough to find it. And what about "the one"? I think that "the one" does exist - we just have to have faith and keep looking. He or she is out there somewhere. Everything might not happen like it does in the movies; there might be more hurdles and barriers we have to cross but I am sure there is light at the end of the tunnel.

And love? To me, love is something wonderful and beautiful. It can make you immeasurably sad but at the same time, give you immense joy and happiness. Like a double-edged sword you could say. Love is not something that is easily gotten. Love has the ability to cheer you up even when you are down. Love is when you get a smile to your face just by being together with her. Love is when you don't want to say goodbye to her ever. Love is when you start missing her right after you have said goodbye. But most of all, love is when you accept and love her for who she is, the good and the bad, her qualities and her flaws. Because to you, she is perfect.
