Love ??!!

A small word for such a complex emotion. No simple explanation for it, because love is made up of so many things. It can't be measured or bought for all the money in the world. It is a feeling of deep emotion which has to be earned. Love is something that grows slowly, maturing with time. Once love reaches maturity, there is no stronger bond between two people. To love someone means being at ease with them, sharing confidence knowing they will be understood & held in trust. It's respecting each other's dignity & never being demanding. Love is being willing to give and accepting that which is given, graciously and with love. True love is having a genuine concern for one another. Being able to sense something is wrong without being told. It's excusing faults, because we know that their good points far out weigh the bad. It's always being there for each other & giving support when confidence levels are low. Knowing when to be silent & listen, or give a cheerful word of encouragement. Love is sharing the good & bad. The hopes, the dreams, along with amusing & serious times. It's doing things together, yet leaving room to grow as an individual. We should not take love for granted, or abuse the privilege. We should strive to become better at understanding its true meaning & value. Love is a beautiful emotion, when shared by two. So I think that you should open your heart & let love in & should not be afraid to turn to special someone and say... I Love You.
