What is Love ? I Don’t Know !

Love is lots of things to me.

I can go on and on about how different people may interpret ‘love’ as.

I can tell you all the different definitions you may find online and stories about how love “should be” like.

There is no singular explanation for ‘love’ because it is a special feeling deep within us, one that makes your heart flutters and yearns for more.

It has something to do with everything when it comes to ‘love’ and the only thing that matters is really just the two people who are in love with each other.

I happened to come across this old song by Joni Mitchell, “Both Sides Now” and I liked this part of the lyrics most :

I’ve looked at love from both sides now,
From give and take, and still somehow
It’s love’s illusions I recall.
I really don’t know love at all

I can’t say I am a love guru but I have seen happy stories and way too many heartbreaks since I first came across ‘love’.

I believe that there is no such thing as “Mr Perfect” or “The One” out there but that doesn’t mean you can’t find that special someone in your life.

Of course, I’m still at an age that I can’t possibly declare now that the boyfriend is the one I want to spend my entire life with (even though I do want to, haha)

If you ask me “So is this the true love you’ve been waiting for ?” – I honestly don’t know and there’s no way I can tell you the answer.

But he is someone special to me. I may not know how ‘love’ should be like but I think as long as the two people are comfortable with each other and have a certain level of trust and love between them – that’s all it takes to keep the relationship going. (Of course, communication is really important)

I think I have been reading too many relationship-related books lately, just finished “He’s just not that into you” ! Will review it soon

Actually what triggered this post was thanks to the boyfriend, was quite a sweet surprise to see him at my voiddeck today Especially when he stays at the other end of the world is not exactly an ‘Eastsider’ like me. (and I was late for at least half an hour..haha)
