Loveish

There are more simpler things in life than love. Sometimes one can find it so controversial to love.
Loving is an act that goes above all others, it is the most selfless thing a human being can do. Loving it's confusing and mind boggling... It's what keeps some going and what crushes others. There are too many people that don't know the real meaning of love, what it feels to love or be loved.
There are some people you just want to hold in your arms and love them promising to never stop, never let go, never give up.

I think the hardest person to do that to is yourself.

As human beings we are so critical, judgmental and self-righteous of everyone but worst of all of ourselves. Instead of being our number one fans we are our number one critics. Looking into the mirror and seeing nothing but flaws. It is ok to be constructive about it but most of us are not. Seeing the flaws and laying about in them doing nothing to change them.... Just trying our hardest to cover them up. Over sizing our cars, houses, bodies, our lives trying to make up for what we FEEL we cannot control. Never seeing the beauty in what is natural.

Faster, bigger, better is what we want. Never truly satisfied with what we have. Nothing ever seems to be good enough...

It's sickening if you stop to think about it... Part of me wants to run from this life, this lie that we live day to day... Struggling to make ends meet because we live beyond our means. The other part, the one that is overcome by love stays.

Love is beautiful and ugly, cruel and kind, it's everything you could ever want and everything you don't. It can nourish your soul or it can drain it. It can hold you back, or it can make you a better person, a stronger person, a person that knows who they are because of the person that loves them. I am blessed because the person I love feeds my soul, nourishes my spirit, encourages me to grow, learn and carry onward, but, I am blessed because, most importantly he loves me.
