Love Love Love

What is love?

Love can be something special, extraordinarily beautiful.

Love can be something bittersweet, melodramatic.

Love can be something treacherous, heart-achingly awful.

But it all comes down to perspective.

Someone who’s having their first romantic relationship and someone who’s had their heart broken over and over again are going to have completely different outlooks on love.

But the thing we need to realize, love takes so much more forms than just with romantic partners.

Love is what you feel for your friends, family, and pets.

Love is what you feel for the barista at the coffee shop you frequent, the boy in your art class, the girl who always finds a way to brighten your day.

Love is what you feel for your cat when you first awake and see him lying next to you on the pillow.

Love is all around us, and it’s beautiful, but some bad apples may have made love fill you with hate instead

And I’m sorry that those assholes have ruined the most beautiful thing for you.
