love

All you need is Love, and Love is all you need.

Is Standing by Someone You Love Worth It, Even If It's Wrong?
The conflict of being in love with someone that goes against your values is a mind game that you play with yourself. You end up having constant conversations with yourself, creating a pros and cons type of chart in your head but still coming to one conclusion, does being in love with someone outweigh their immoral compass? Or are you giving them a pass because you're making your love towards them a weakness?

Words They Couldn't Say
For years they struggled back and forth with their unspoken desire for each other, and for years it drained them both. To look at the person you want the most and be unable to tell them how you feel; to see in your mind's eye how good it could be and feel everything that is standing in the way; to be so afraid to shove the internal obstacles aside because you are top scared that to gain something wonderful you could lose everything instead.

Twin Flame Union Manifestation Prescription
Many people greatly romanticize the twin flame relationship. While it's true that it absolutely will be the most intense relationship you have ever or will ever have, it is important to remember what a twin soul or twin flame relationship IS and what it is NOT.

Just Yes
I guess I have heard all different versions of love stories that hardly any of them seem to have a surprise ending; something I didn't expect or see coming. Still, if I had to start from the beginning, I would love to go through them all over again, because at any moment in time, all these stories have helped me realize something profound about life. I don't know how many of them are real or have happened and how many of them are webbed by someone’s imaginations.

Believe or Not
Whenever we think about love, we think about Shakespeare, we think about all the literature and poems in the world where stories of humankind are amazingly described. We don’t have tangible things or even enough words to describe such a feeling. You just know it. You feel it inside you that something extraordinary is happening to you. Most of the time there is our friend "Music" who helps us identify that feeling and make us realize how it affects us on a daily basis. I am addicted to love and of course my partner. Love is magical and makes us function in a different way. It is something I have always experienced.

Desperate for Love
It was two years ago, I felt something for this guy, let’s call him R. When we started talking to each other, it didn’t seem that special for some reason. I don’t know why it felt like he didn’t like me the same way I did, but yet I gave the whole thing a shot. Months passed by and I still felt like he did not have the same feelings as me. Since this was all long distance, the only thing we could do was chat. In those few months, I asked him if we could talk over the phone. He said no because he felt uncomfortable talking to anyone so I didn’t bother forcing him. I never got the attention from him as his girlfriend so I slowly stopped talking to him. A few months after that, I started talking to someone else, let’s name him A.

Once Was Broken
The day came when she finally felt every sporadic emotion flood her body. All the ones she felt when she was a young girl, sitting in her bed listening to the screams through the broken home, that was proclaimed to be home sweet home.

Dear You
I miss you. All. The. Time. I miss the way you made me feel like I was coming home whenever I saw you. I miss the way your hair looked after a good night's sleep. I miss how you would push up your glasses at the bridge of your nose with your pointer finger and how you would scrunch your nose when you did so.

My Love Story (Part 3)
After I had my daughter, my ex moved into my apartment with my mom and I. It was the start of a new beginning. The reason why my ex moved in was because I needed help with our baby. Also, he would get the chance to be a father to our daughter. I stopped going to school for one semester to focus on my daughter and my ex was still in school and working, and also he would constantly hang out with his friends.

Never Apologize for Being YOU!
I have had so many relationships in my 27 years on this earth, but none were as hard as my most recent. It lasted for five years and nine months. The relationship started out rough. I was infatuated with this girl who happened to be someone's girlfriend at the time. I didn't care because I just wanted to be her friend, you know, get to know her. She was tall, beautiful coffee/toffee color skin, curly hair, and a smile that would make your heart stop. Now I had always had feelings for women, but this girl took the cake for me. I knew I had to have her in my life, whether it be a friend or whatever. We exchanged numbers and it all started from there. Eventually we ended up dating and I came out to my parents and they were furious. I was a preacher's child so that was a no-no in our home. So after a while my parents warmed up to her and she started coming around my family more. I was so happy and in love until I couldn't contain myself. I realized that I had been living a lie my entire life. She made me the happiest I had ever been in a very long time. We had our issues and problems but we were happy. We took road trips together, slept in the car when we didn't have enough money to stay in a hotel and eat, and so much more. I have never experienced love like I did when we were together, but if you are battling with a feeling that has been there a long time and you wonder why nothing goes right especially if it is feelings for the same sex then I say GO FOR IT! Life is too short to not enjoy it. You have to make yourself happy. Don't ever apologize for being you. You are going to be happy that you did. It was hard for me to admit it but once I did it was a breath of fresh air. I didn't have to worry about having to please anyone or make others happy, I was making myself happy. So be you, do what you want to do. If no one likes it oh well. No one likes to be unhappy, at least I don’t. I want my life to mean something and if it takes for me to be shunned away by family and friends so be it. If they can’t love you for who you are, they don’t love you at all. Don’t let people make you feel as if you are not good enough because you like what you like. If you were ever faced with the decision to either love who you want and make someone else happy I really hope you chose to love who you love! Friends will come and go, so will family but someone who you can love with all your heart and they love you back is very rare these days. Most people are just looking for the next thing to get them that good release and they go on about their business, but love real love does not come around every day, but when it does you have to grab a hold of it and don’t let go. I gave my heart to someone six years ago and although we have had our ups and downs and still do my love for her has never changed. I still see her as the same beautiful girl with the most gorgeous curls in the world. She has made me realize that you can’t make everyone happy except the person who looks back at you in the mirror. That is the only person who matters.

Un(?)requited Love
The most heart-wrenching thing I've ever heard is "don't worry, you'll find someone." It's not the advice that's heart-wrenching, it's the fact that the person who told me this was that someone.

My Love Story (Part 2)
When I found out that I was pregnant, I was 19-years-old, attending my first year at community college and working at a daycare as a teacher’s aide. I was nowhere close to where I wanted to be in life. I was still in love with my ex. I was terrified and I had no idea what to expect. When my ex and I were trying to be friends, he opened up about how he never had feelings for me. Then all of these thoughts started popping up in my head. He strung me along in a relationship he didn't want to be in. All of those times that he had said that he ever loved me was a complete lie. Why did he beg me for another chance and made me believe that he didn't mean what he had said, if he really didn't want to be with me? More than anything, I was pissed off and said some really ugly and mean things to him.
