You can have all the money, fame, and power in the world. None of that matters if you don’t have someone to love.
Helping pessimists see the bright side of life without losing their "half empty" roots.
You can have all the money, fame, and power in the world. None of that matters if you don’t have someone to love.
Falling in love with a friend. A blessing and a curse. It’s awesome that you’ve fallen in love with someone who “gets” you. Being friends before lovers is a definite must as far as relationships are concerned.
Before you decide to step into the murky waters of the unknown, there’s so much to consider. Do they feel the same way? If they don’t feel the same way, will things be weird between you? What if they feel the same way and the relationship doesn’t work out? Can you remain friends? Do you even want to risk your friendship? So many emotions.
This song sums it up perfectly. Enjoy!
Aristotle said, ‘Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.” What are your thoughts about this?
Love merges the psyches of two people. In that moment, those two people are bonded by that one psyche. There’s an unspoken understanding between the two of them. Knowing how one another is feeling without asking is a beautiful feeling. I like to think of it as coming full circle.
Love is not necessary for survival. On the other hand, I do believe that a broken heart has an impact on a person’s being. We hear about people dying from a broken heart. The loss of love becomes too heavy for them to deal with and they slowly shut down.
While it’s not required for survival, I do feel that love has an impact on your quality of life.
Erich Fromm said, “Immature love says: “I love you because I need you.” Mature love says: “I need you because I love you.” How do you define mature love?
Mature love needs that person that they love. If I love someone, I need to see them, touch them, exist in their space.
Martin Luther King Jr. unpacked love and hate when he said, “I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.” Which is easier for you to feel: love or hate?
Love is SO much easier! But before I explain why love is easier, allow me to explain why hate is such a burden.
Hate has a nasty grip that physically and emotionally weighs you down. Hate is frigid; chilling your soul to the bones. I have hated people with all the cells in my body and over time, that hatred started to hurt. Once I realized that hatred was the cause of my ailments, I had to let go of those negative feelings.
Love, on the other hand, is a warm hug and big smiles. It’s optimistic, happiness, and hopeful. How can you not love butterflies in your stomach? In my mind, love will forever triumph hate. Even if love sometimes hurts, it still triumphs.
What if there was a Lost and Found for love? All of our former flames that we loved, lost, and want back can now be found in one convenient location.
A girl can dream…even if that dream is rooted in delusion.
For those who have been in love, lost love, and long for it again.
I want to two-step when I hear this song. Enjoy!
I believe that every day should be Valentine’s Day in some way. If you don’t show me how much you care on a regular day, don’t bother doing it on February 14. That makes it feel more like an obligation because Valentine’s Day is nothing more than an expensive guilt trip.
