#BecauseILoveYou


What is love, what is love, what is love?

Love is your center, it drives and motivates even the most stubborn and awakens those who have been asleep.

Snoring away there lives to wake up at that perfect moment instead of living there life making that moment a reality.

See your dreams aren’t just dreams. They’re ideas, thoughts, and passions locked up inside of you.

Love is the key to unlock those dreams, but how do you get that love? How can you experience love, in a world filled with negativity?

Start by making somebody or something your everything. They become your center, your pillars on which your function of love rests.

On these pillars lies you, their shelter, their protection from anything and everything made evil and cruel.

When you make this structure, this amazing ornate temple of love, you must fill it with the most beautiful jewels and trinkets known to the soul.

Laughter can be shared, dates can be had, even those quick smiles to show that you really appreciate them. It makes love rich and pure.

Becoming somebody else, being a copy of another makes love bitter and rotten. When you love somebody you shouldn’t love a copy.

But love them for who they truly can be! Love isn’t contained by walls or barriers of any sort, but by the imagination of the lovers.

Love can be anything. A man and woman, a man and man, woman and woman, friends, Christians, Mormans, Jews, African Americans, Asians.

All love requires is one commitment, one promise. That promise of loving them fully and forever.

Now can I ask you?

What is love, what is love, what is love?
