Love: emotion, state of happiness, way of life, all of the above? No one knows how to describe this “thing” we all live by. From the moment we are brought into this world, we are loved. Our parents, family, and extended family all make sure we are surrounded by this overwhelming sense of love.
As we grow up we find ourselves, and sometimes we find people who make us feel a certain way. We find people who become our friends, or our best friends. Until we find someone so similar to ourselves that we feel the deepest of connections. Maybe we’re crazy, maybe it’s meant to be, maybe it’s love.
This person becomes the one you trust with your deepest secrets, your late night thoughts, and your corny jokes. This is the person you want to know everything about, you want to experience life with them. The person who you’ll want to be there when you’re upset or happy. They’ll bring out the best in you and do anything to make you smile. They will hold you close and make you feel safe. This person will literally feel like your other half, not that part of you was missing, but they are your perfect match.
When I was at a wedding over the summer, during the ceremony, something was said that has really stuck with me.
“Love is when your definition of ‘home’ changes from four walls to a beating heart and warm embrace.”
The truth is, love is indescribable. It’s a different experience for every single person. . . but when you find your love please don’t let go. Hopefully, it will be the greatest experience of your life.
