hello everyone, and happy valentines day! im posting this publically, coz i felt like it, and coz this post about my idea of love, relationships, etc. is very appropriate for being read by the masses on this here hearts day. first off, let me start with...
squee. that was fun. anyways. on to the rant
anyways, so a ton of people are super bummed about valentines day, having no boy or girlfriend, no one to love, etc etc. and it got me to thinking. because personally, i love valentines day even if it is extrememely pointless and commercial..its another excuse to tell the people you love that you love them! which brings me to my next topic::: love.
*ahem* hahaha.
wellllll. personally, i am a big believer in love. love at first sight, true love, soul mates, serendipity, etc. you all knew that, though. but as much as i believe in it, there are SOOOO many different kinds of love. let me outline it for you.
I. Familial love. this is the kind of love you have for mommy, daddy, and sister and brother. [and grandma and auntie, etc. etc.] you know, that unconditional family 'i love you' goodnight kind of love.
II. Platonic or Friendly Love. this is the love you have for friends and peers, etc. the kind of "love you babe!" love you write on notes and cards. the "i lover you x forever" kind of love. not sexual, but still there and meaningful.
III. High school/ College 'Luv' Love. the kind of love most of us who say "i love you" around now are in. the love that means right now we're happy, and "i love you" feels good to say. while close to True Love, its not there yet. dont even try to say it is.
IV. True Love. this is the "i love you" you say at your wedding. the one that means forever and a day. actually, in my opinion, true love means that 'forever isn't long enough to watch the sunset in your arms or see the stars dance in your eyes' teehee how poetic of me. [not.]but yeah. that love that makes everything in life okay, and amazing, and makes you want the rest of your life to start right away so you can spend it with this amazing person.
now, i dont think its impossible to find True Love in highschool in college, in fact i hope to. i want to meet someone i could marry, someone that could be my forever.someone to make me want a child, make me want a little baby that we could raise together.... my soulmate, you know? yeah. and i think that is what a lot of people search and search for, but at the same time...i want it to find me, because i just sort of feel like that is how its supposed to happen. love should come unawares and knock you off your feet...give you that feeling like you're shaking for no reason... i dont know. for me, i think True Love will be that feeling i get when i dance in the rain. or sing&swing...or stare at the foreverness of the stars. yeah. writing this makes me smile, haha. coz of course i know this wont be coming anytime soon, or at least not likely...but it makes me happy knowing ive got the potential to find it. and as easy as it is for people to be like "what if i dont find that?" its ten thousand times easier for me to say "i will."
[end of rant.]
marry me a little?
lovve
