One of the most powerful emotions that I have ever felt, There's nothing so obvious and so pure as this emotion.
It is also one of the most over-used words in the world, for reasons that I now understand. People try to typecast love, they generalise it, they try to "simplify" it. In other words, they tell you what love "should" be like, not what it is. They associate it with words like compromise, waiting, adjusting, sacrifice, compassion, support, which is anything but that. They take vows where they agree to sacrifice their happiness for that of the other, they vow never to leave, to stay together through thick and thin.
By binding people into this emotion, you're killing any chance for that emotion to flourish. You can't love someone without wanting it in the first place.
It is as lucid as that, you can't force/pretend a love that doesn't exist. There are no two ways about it.
Love is happiness in the fullest sense of the term! It's being whole, coherent, and pure!
"Love is being able to stand naked in the sunlight with your arms raised high" - Ayn Rand
Love is love, don't try to camouflage it with anything else. It's meant to be pure in it's truest form just as we are meant to be pure in our truest forms, It's not a bandage for sore wounds, it's a celebration of the best within us with a spirit that matches our own!
