In Love with Love

What is it about love that makes it so hard to get? What is it about love that makes all of us crave it? What is it about love that makes most of us chase it?
Is it the rush that we feel when we are in love, or when we think that we are truly in love? Is it love’s ability to make us aware of our good side, our good nature that we seem to forget about? Is it that mystical refreshing feeling that we always experience when we feel that there is someone for us, someone who cares about us? What makes “Love” so precious?
Although we know that it can really hurt us, we still cherish it. We keep on looking for it. For our disappointment, it keeps on moving farther and moving away, like a butterfly, when we try to chase it and grab it to our possession. Love, for us, always seems like a mirage that looks too good and seems like it is all that we ever wanted, but it is never real.
We know deep inside that it can be a losing game, but we still go for it. Are we masochists? Do we enjoy getting hurt? Or, do we only care about enjoying the moment and never look ahead? Are we sane? If yes, then why do we keep on hurting ourselves? Or, do we lie to ourselves to the extent that we believed our lies?
Why can’t we turn off our hearts? Why is it beyond our God damned control? Sometimes, we try to control our hearts, but love is so strong. We cannot resist the temptation.
And when we fall in love and it doesn’t work out, we ask the same lame question, “Is it me?” Is it our fault? Is it our bad choice? Why do we keep on blaming ourselves, though we know that it’s beyond our control? Why do we feel devastated, though we saw this coming?
Again, are we masochists?
Why do keep on looking for that heartbreaking love when true love is all around us?
Most people keep on looking for it throughout their lives, and they always think that they cannot find it. Why do we keep on looking for “Love” when it is all around us? Are we blind?
Look around. Love is all around you. You just need to open your eyes. Give yourself a break. Breathe and listen to your heartbeats. Feel them. Listen carefully! Only then, you will feel the magical rhythm that will enlighten your life.
Love yourself. Love the world around you, and be sure that it will love you right back.
Be sure that love will come your way, and not the other way around. Relax! If you still insist on looking for “Love”, so look for that safe love that will never break you. Look for that love that will make you discover the innate you. Look in the eyes of those who are around you and be sure that you will find your desired treasure.
If you think that you are not in love, think again. This is simply because you are in love with LOVE.
