Have you ever come across this line of words “to love is to give and not to receive? Has it ever made sense to you? Ever thought of what it could really mean? It is not rare these days to hear, I just want to get married to a man that will take care of me or I just want a woman that will take care of my children, etc

Sadly, these days we attach reasons to loving people and when the reason for loving them is no longer there, our love grows cold and then vanishes as it is not taken care of.

What is love?
Everybody has his or her own definition of love. We know or maybe I should say in our little heads we want people to show us affection in some ways that befit us which makes us say they love us.

Love as I will always define it is a choice. A choice to give you a whole of me, a choice to accept you just the way I expect...
