Why Love?

Many times when there is a problem involving me or not I don't usually get upset at what was done, but I seek to find why something was done. There's a cause for everything, and your reasons for doing what you do will dictate how you treat a situation. When you have pure intentions how you handle problems or issues would be different in contrast to if you didn't have pure intentions. I strongly think you cannot look for love and that with the right people and the right time you'll be able to experience that feeling with someone. You can't just create that on your own it has to be some kind of organic progression based on mutual respect at the very least.

I think love commands respect. I compare that to athletes and how it's always said they should respect the game. What's meant by that is to know all that comes with the game, don't underestimate the work that goes into being great. Also be cognizant that your career could be over at any point, or to always give your best effort. I think love is the same. Many of us get shocked when things just don't go right. People feel like love owes them something, they get real pissy and say things like "fuck love" and all that. You first have to know what you're getting yourself into. When you really start feeling for someone just know there isn't much you can do now to avoid being hurt if it ever comes to that. From that point you have to roll with the punches.

In every facet of life there's downfalls and there's triumphs. You're going to be hurt, you're going to miss people, and maybe some people aren't for you. All this is perfectly fine but there's always hope for love and happiness. Your intentions must first be healthy before you can really love I think. You cannot love someone because you want to be loved back, or because you want to hear I love you back. That's just not the right purpose to love. Love doesn't have a selfish agenda, you have to want to love out of respect and admiration for someone. You have to be genuine. If you want to love just because you like the feeling of "being in love" I'd argue that you're really not in love and you're just psyching your self out. Sooner or later that will crash and I'm sure it'll burn. Love because you want to and because you feel that person is deserving of the generosity of your feelings. Everyone isn't deserving of you investing so much in them; so you have to choose wisely.

Til next time....
