Love is a beautiful thing; almost everyone will agree with me on this. But as beautiful as it is, some hurdles must be crossed to showcase the beauty and for the beauty to last longer. For a love story to be worth emulating, it requires some high level of sacrifice, which includes emotional sacrifice, physical sacrifice, financial sacrifice, and many more. I am a bit rigid when it comes to handling relationships because when I'm in love, I invest everything I am into it; I would want to see it work out well just as I have wished, though sometimes it doesn't work out even after investing so much into it.
There are few things I'm willing to do for love, and that's because I cherish every good relationship I have. First is patience; I see this as a great virtue. It is one of the major qualities everyone should possess, especially women, although there are other stories to this; some see a patient person as a fool, but that's not true. Being patient in dealing with issues of life, especially in a relationship, doesn't mean one is a fool or stupid; it's just a way of saying you care and cherish that relationship; this is my perspective that some might not agree with.
Secondly is sacrifice; for love, I can make some sacrifices just to keep the love growing and keep my loved ones with whom we share the same vision, passion, and ideas. I am a lover of good vibes. I appreciate positive energy, and that always makes me go out of my way to make sure my loved ones are as happy as we are still together, either as friends or family. Sacrificing for love doesn't mean I won't prioritize myself, and it doesn't mean I won't take good care of myself, but showing care and love when needed shouldn't be a problem.
Thirdly is support; being there always for someone I love is one of the things I can do for love. Rendering emotional, physical, and financial support is one of the factors I believe should be taken so seriously in relationships. There are times when reality of life will hit one's partner, and all that is needed at that time is support. Supporting one's partner in times of dire need is the right thing to do. Many just needed someone they can lean on, someone who understands them and never judges them for who they are, but rather encourages them and sees them through the difficult times. Supporting our loved ones goes a long way in building bonds between family, friends, lovers, colleagues, as well as neighbors. Someone might say that after rendering all the listed factors for love, one gets betrayed at the end. Well, that's right sometimes; we just can't do enough to satisfy people, but then love is a beautiful thing. Sacrificing, supporting, and being patient for who you love isn't a crime, and that is the best thing to do for love.
Thanks for your time, and your comments will be appreciated.
