You're here for a reason.

I've never imagined that I will be writing such stuff but this is the power of LOVE… power of SACRIFICE.

Sacrifice is needed for love to exist. It eventually makes a relationship between people easier. In all relationships at one point a sacrifice is made. Sometimes it is a very small sacrifice such as changing a schedule other times sacrifice is so great you must give up your loved one knowing that it will hurt you greatly, but in the end make the other person happy. I myself have made this kind of sacrifice & witnessed people sacrificing for love, family and friends. I have also seen sacrifice in the movies and books. It's something that moves people when they witness it and makes them think. In all societies this theme is found in literature, movies and music.

What is love?  Have you ever taken the time to let your mind wonder about love?  Love can be painful, love can be sad, but more than anything love should bring happiness.  When you love someone, whether you make them mad, upset, cry or hurt them, true love will never be able to be replaced.  Love is sacrifice. Have you ever thought about falling in love?  Have you ever thought about what it means to be in love, and then suddenly you are faced with crashing waves of emotions and discover that the sun is sometimes burning.  Lately, that is what I have been dealing with.  Lately, that is what has been tearing me up inside.  No one has ever said that love was going to be easy, but we give up on love a lot of times.  We go looking elsewhere.   Sometimes you have those who are quite content with being seconds.  You have those who like to run their mouths not knowing what to keep to themselves, and then sometimes you have those who will laugh and talk in your face and make sarcastic comments every time you come around.  Love is greater than any thought, idea, or conception of meaning, yet it is the reason why we have thoughts and why meanings are sought.  Love is the one key that can unlock all things.  It can reveal the deepest mystery, and it will soften the hardest hearts.  It places a heart of heaven in you.  It reveals itself through the art of giving and the sharing of one’s feelings.  Love is a GIFT.  A gift that should not be played or toyed with.  Frankly I am writing this to let the world know that I am in Love.  Love has been painful to me.  I was even at the point where I attempted to take my own life.  No one ever knew, and no one ever suspected until the day it happened.  I appeared to be happy to outsiders, but I was hurting inside.  That is when I really found out who my true friends were.  I can say today, I only have three whom I trust completely and believe that their snide comments are just for fun.  I am here for a reason today.  That reason, God has not shown me yet.  My life, due to love, has been a constant battle but I will not give up on it.  This is the second time I have let myself fall in love, and this time caught me by surprise.  This is indeed it for me.  If it so happens that things work themselves out, I will be the happiest guy in the world.  I have learned from my mistakes and the mistakes I made I want make them again (It reminds me of the song 'Treading Water').  I can honestly say, through all problems, where there is a will there is a way.  To the one I am in love with, I have selected the path you made me understand to walk on & waiting for you to choose. The day we met it was like a dream, our eyes locked and our souls beamed.  You gave me new hope, showed me what love really means.  I love to see the sparkling smile on your face and your emerald eyes gleam as a new morning’s sunrise.  Each time I see you, my heart skips a beat.  I accept you for who you are, not who you may have tried to be.  Yes, we have had our problems, but through it all we have been able to remain friends.  At one point, the sight of you made me feel like I was on top of the world, then things fall down and the sight of you brought me to tears.  Through all the pain, the problems, the struggles, the lies and deceit, you are my joy happiness.  Being with you makes my life complete.  Love is sacrifice.  Now, you can understand things from my point of view.  It was painful, and I cried writing this article but in some instance I am free.  Love, I believe, is the greatest feeling in this whole world.
