There's only one happiness in this life, to love and be loved > George Sand.
Love indeed is a proof of our existence, so invariably, self love comes first before anything.
What is love?
Well, I do not know if there is any theoretical definition that will actually give a full detail of what love entails but many have tried giving us an insight of what it can be anyway.
Love is Strong affection for another arising for another out of kinship or personal ties e.g maternal love.
Attraction based on sexual desire; affection and tenderness felt by lovers
A singular thing that stood out in all these insights remains that love don’t just come, something leads to it.
Continuously in everyday of our life, we are in love circles; it is either we are just recovering from a past love(breakfast, lol) or we are building up a new love, hahaha. But yes, that is how stupid we can be when we are in love and there is this fulfillment that just follows a new love; we become so so immersed with it,"Drunk in love" tries to explain this feeling but the feeling is just so so much that I personally lack words to explain it.
For instance, when we chat, we carry our phone everywhere even while washing clothes patiently waiting for a message notification to pop up from our newly found love, guess what, we clean off the foams from the detergent, reply the chat almost same seconds as it entered and we continue again and the cycle continues until we are done with the washing, hahaha.
We can be very stupid about love but still there are extents we can go about it and that brings about our topic today
At one time or the other, we all have been in love. Many of us are even in love now. So tell us all those things you can do for love, how far you are willing to go. And then the things you will never do.
THINGS I CAN DO FOR LOVE
I can really do a lot for someone I truly love, of course, love comes with sacrifices and giving.
I will always be there for you whenever you need me, spending times together.
I will always be the first person to wish you a good morning and the last to wish you a goodnight.
I will sacrifice the little money I have just to make you happy buying things that are attractive.
I will also take you to beautiful places I know and we just have fun together making memories we will hold on for the rest of our lives.
When facing health challenges, I will be there for you all through and even donate maybe when blood is required just to make sure you recover.
I will strive hard to be the better version of myself, quitting all my bad behaviours for love. I will improve daily on my flaws and will also accept my love for the way she is and who she is as she also improves on becoming a better version of herself too.
Who doesn't have flaws anyway?
I will also support her positive dreams and ensure she achieves most if not all of them for the sake of love.
In as much as beating any lady is not right, it is also a special mention that I will never raise my hands on a lady I love for whatsoever reason.
I will protect you in the public and defend your personality wherever I go all because of love.
HOW FAR AM I WILLING TO GO
Well, without exaggeration, I can cross seven seas and climb seven mountains just to make the love of my life happy.
I drove all night🎶🎶 by Celine Dion can give us an idea of what I mean😅
Let me remind you the chorus as it's an old song
I drove all night to get to you
Is that all right?
I drove all night crept in your room
Woke you from your sleep to make love to you
Is that all right?
I drove all night
Emphasis on drove all night
THINGS I WILL NEVER DO
Yes, there are still somethings that aren’t within anyone's reach to thwart just because I love you. They includes;
MURDER
This tops the list of them all,I can never kill for the person I love and will never compromise such when asked by the security personnels and I know you are the perpetrator of the murder.
CAN'T SACRIFICE MY DREAM
Yes, I love you but that does not mean I will have to sacrifice my dream, my life because of you. For the records, I was already a human being with dreams before I met you, so, you won't expect me to sacrifice that for you at all, no matter what.
CAN'T SACRIFICE CHELSEA MATCH
This is also a very big aspect of my life and as such, I will not compromise this for anyone at all. I didn’t say all football matches because I can out of love sacrifice the rest, I was specific about just Chelsea football club matches so it is not much to ask because I adore those moments.
QUIT CHRISTIANITY
Of course, the fact you are not a Christian is not a hindrance for me loving you; I love personalities and character and not your "christainhood" but in as much as you have reasons for believing in whatever you want to believe, I also have mine and will never stop been a Christian just because of love.
BETRAY MY IMMEDIATE FAMILY OR FRIENDS
Love cannot also make me betray my parents and siblings who I grew up with just because of you. Dialogue will preceds any violence and if you are right, I will call them to order but not me fighting or betraying them because of your wish.
I will not also abandon or end my friendship with friends I met way before I met you because of love.
I cannot beg for love also, if it is not mine, then, it can never be mine, it is just as simple as that.
I will not also accept a cheating partner because of love and will not stand to be insulted just because of love,"I've gaht a dignity to uphold yunno 😏"
Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired."— Robert Frost
Love goes far when it is mutually reciprocated but if not, the sweet memories of love gradually fades away leaving hurtful scars to hunt us.
LET LOVE LEAD❤️🌹
