Limits
In this world, everything has been given limitations. Is this how the world has to be?
Is there a limitation on love?
That would depend on who you ask. Your mother may tell you a different story than your brother who has just met the "love of his life".
Your mother may not be able to stand the presence of your father who she had thought she loved a long time ago. While your brother can't get enough of the girl he met last week.
You set your own limitations on love. How much are you willing to sacrifice for that love.
What is love? Does it have a true definition? Devotion. Affection. Warmth. Attachement. Tenderness. Fondness. All these words can be used to describe the feeling.
What do you call the one you love?
Darling. Honey. The One. Husband. Wife. Girlfriend. Boyfriend. Lover.
Or
Mother. Father. Brother. Sister.
To love someone is to say that you would do anything for that person. You would sacrifice in a multitude of different ways for that person. They are worth the sacrifice, the effort, the work.
The only limitations that exist on love are those that you have placed on the word yourself.
In true love there are no limits.
So if you can feel the strain of those limits, it is not true love. Its not real. Possibly it is infatuation or you simply enjoy the attention. True love is mutual.
Before you utter those words to the one you love, make sure you mean them. The word holds a lot of importance and you need to make sure that you mean it.
Many mothers and fathers would do anything for their children. This is true pure love.
Some relationships are true love as well, although it is more rare to find than we would like to think.
There are no limits on love if its real, true and pure. If it is not, you will always find an excuse, some reason why you can't support the one you say you "love" there will be infinite limitations on this love.
Be careful before you declare your love.
Mean it or don't say it at all.
P.S. To the one I love, if you are reading this. I am sure that I love you, my darling.
