WHAT is LOVE?
The word 'LOVE' is believed to be all around us; it is found and is constantly used in different contexts in life. Song writers use it to make hit single songs. Author use it to write best selling novels. Directors use it to produce award winning films. While at home parents love their children, likewise their children loves them. But what does the word actually mean?

But what does the word actually mean?
The most popular subject in the word is what we all call 'LOVE', however, we never really quite reach the bottom line of what the word truly means and is usually poorly defined by people. In the beginning of all things, it is believed that a man and a woman was created out of love, therefore, we, as men and women should know the significance of this subject in our daily lives, in order to interact and relate with others.
Love is actually a mystery to most people, because most of us never realize the true potential or value of love, nor do we learn to practice the art of love. A man or woman's continuous search for affection and care from others, is a very good example and proof of people's need of love. When this need is filled, contentment is achieved. But it is not easy to achieve this kind of contentment, because we must still have the courage to accept our failures as lovers.
LOVE or INFATUATION
Love or Infatuation... Now that's a tough subject to discuss. Usually, people mistakenly go on a wrong way for not not understanding clearly what each of them actually means. Love to infatuation and infatuation to love, where of course the outcome would be, only one getting hurt and the other one ending up confused. But how do you actually determine which one is which? By how you feel? I don't think so. Sometimes feelings may deceive a person to think that he/she is in love, when in fact they're just infatuated.
I got to think about this a lot of times, basing it on my self-experiences, analyzing every situation i ever encountered one by one and then the answer just popped out. Plain and simple. It's actually the action of a person towards the other would determine, in which division you belong to. What actions you may ask? I could say that it would be in terms of self-worth and the worth of that certain counterpart to you. Jealousy, self-centeredness and non-sacrificing acts would mean infatuation. In love, you may and for sure will be faced with a lot risk that real sacrifices are required and each risk would resolve to something... beautiful.
Now I say, choose and think wisely guys and gals, it's not everyday you'll find love by your side, you'll never know you lost it even before you got a grab of it.
LOVE HURTS
Love usually strives in hurting. People say that when you get hurt, that's the time you learn how to really love. To tell you the truth, love doesn't actually hurt all the time, though it's still there sometimes to test you and help you grow, but of course with that, it doesn't also mean that after all the tests, you'll be forever happy, there's no promise on that I assure you; sometimes all love even provide is pain and misery rather than the joy and happiness that we always hoped for. Yet we are all frequently blinded by the strong emotions that we have for that certain person or thing that we fail to see reality. Then in the end, sometimes letting go is the only answer to everything, and believe me, it really hurts like hell, but you'll soon realize that it's better for that person you love to be happy being themselves or with another person, than being with you. We have to live in reality rather than fantasy people; you can't finish a book without closing its chapter or film a movie without an ending. If you really want to go on and live a happy life full of love, then you have to leave the past as you turn the pages of your life.
But hey! Guys and gals, cheer up! Let me tell you something. Don't find love, ok? because you might end up hurting, so, just let it find you. Sometimes I even wonder why people even bother searching for it when at times it's just there waiting for you. You just have to be patient and have faith because there's always somebody for someone in this world, and it comes in what most people call, "GOD's perfect time". That's why they call it falling in love in the first place, because you don't actually force yourself to fall, you just do.
