Love

How do you know if you're in love? I've been told that I'll just know when I am in love.

But how would I just know? It's impossible to me. Love is impossible.

I apologize. This post is going to be very hard to read and follow. My mind is just all over the place tonight.

One thing I do know, I know love is sacrifice. Putting others first, before yourself. Make those who you love a priority.Whether it be a member of your family, a friend, or that special boy or girl, putting their needs and happiness before your own, now that is love.

For example, I know my dad would do anything for me. He loves me so much. More than I could ever know. He really would do anything for me. He does everything to keep me safe. All those times I've felt like I'm being suffocated by his rules, I now know it is him caring enough about me to help keep me safe and on the right track to doing the right things. I'm so lucky to have such a loving, caring, sacrificing father.

Love is taking chances. Sacrificing everything. Risking everything. 

Love is making mistakes.

Love is messing up.

Love is forgiveness. Love is to forgive, but to never, ever, forget. 

These three things are very important. Making mistakes, messing up, forgiving. All play an important role in love. If a mistake is made, move past it. Forgive.

{Keep in mind to never forget.}

(Once again, so sorry this is all over the place). Never forget what you've learned.

                                            Sometimes, mistakes make the best memories.

Love is a thunderstorm. Random. Crazy. Scary. Dangerous.
                     
                                        Yet, at the same time, incredibly beautiful.
