I know I've been quiet for the last month, but if you know me then you know why. Stupid poster! That I'm very proud of, but that's not the point. The point is I have attempted to write about love since February or have tried to follow up my last blog about four times. I have four half written blogs waiting to be finished, and I'm not sure if I ever will. One was extremely negative (I was stuck in a dark place), one was about being the person you were born to be (I'll probably finish that one eventually), and two just quickies that might get converted later down the line. It's crazy how fast life can change in just a few months, weeks, day, or even moments, but that's what life is a series of moments that are combined that make up your life, and one constant moment I have never taken for granted is when I use the word LOVE, well I learned not take it for granted through the years.
Back in the day, I dated a girl who told me she loved me on our second date, and thinking back that was a giant red flag to get the hell out of dodge, but I didn't and said it right back, not knowing the consequences. The consequences being an 8 month relationship where I learned how to hate myself and who I had become. A real eye opener, and after that I promised to say the word LOVE when I truly meant it, and it came not only from the bottom of my heart, but fully and honestly from my mind. When it comes from those two places that word is never wrong! LOVE is one of the strongest weapons if wielded correctly, it can bring friends past the friend barrier, it can brings friends closer, it can heal old wounds, bring families closer, and etc. But the sad thing is LOVE is used in the wrong hands it has the complete opposite effect. I believe LOVE is responsible for the greatest things in the world, but also is the cause of some of the worst. LOVE makes life living, but at the same time LOVE can rob you of what you live for.
Have you ever thought about what LOVE is actually responsible for. Just close your eyes and think about what you love, and the impact it has on your life. Pretty amazing huh! Now LOVE is used wrongly I believe is the cause of more deaths and unhappiness than anything else in the world. War which is simply a love for your country warring against another country that loves their also, religious wars are basically you should love my God and not your God, hate crimes because Tom shouldn't love Bob, or Monique shouldn't love Mark, it's amazing on how great LOVE can be, if used wrongly it destroys lives, sometimes millions of them. Now I'm not saying we should stop loving, in fact I'm saying the opposite, we need more LOVE in the world, but only positive LOVE! Hateful love sounds like an oxymoron, and if you ask me it's moronic that it actually exists! Their is no purpose for hateful love!!!! It doesn't solve JACK! So make a small promise for me, where ever you go, whoever you meet, always carry positive love in your heart, and I pray to my God and all of yours also, it will rub off and take over.
To end this I'm just going to say one thing: True love never dies, it is only tested!!! That goes for your gf/bf, spouse, parents, friends, family, hell even your pet! Cause everything in life that is worth anything you must work for it! And that includes LOVE!
