LOVE: unpopular opinions

 I believe in the butterfly effects, and I've certainly been in the Butterfly stage- where your heart beats just a little faster, and your palms become sweaty, when you walk on eggshells around them, because you aren't sure they would like something that you do. 

unfortunately for me I have faith in Love, I know it exists, but I do not believe in it so much as I believe in compromise, when I say compromise I mean the moments when you want to scream at the person who you love, and just say- I'm done with you, and you just want to out, because its stressful, and in these moments you choose that person above these feelings, not that the feelings are not worth it, or they do not have reasonable basis, but that you know that they are it, and you probably will not find another person like them.

Don't get it twisted, you're yet to meet more than a million people, do not let fear stop you, 'if nothing dey for you again'. 

Very much unfortunately for me, my standard of measurement is Jesus, and I'll never be with someone that does not exemplify the kind of love that Jesus has for me, this is probably unreal- the thing is that, I'm aware that we are humans and WE WILL fall below this standard, constantly! so what happens to me, I'll never find love? I will find because, I'll create a balance, and I'll pick my pros and cons, I however will not bend on the things most important to my faith.

So, my unpopular opinion is that love is compromise, its a promise that, you and I? we'll bend each other on the things that matter, you'll run your race, and I'll be behind you, I'll push you to the extreme, and  when it's your limit I may stop, if there's no benefit for you- and we'll continue to do this, until we can no more, or until it concerns values  fixed to you, and I will respect it.

I also believe in Value, I think that first you value them, you admire them, and you just want to learn from them, because they are so different from you, I think love comes a little bit later, and is the least important.

The thing is that, I do not believe that five years after, I'll look at you and not believe I have you, or cannot believe you stuck with me, or I'll look at you and my heart would flutter- no, I yearn to look at someone and think, we grew together, and we deserve each other because we are so amazing, I want to look at someone and notice all their flaws, and think to myself- these things do not matter. 

To be very honest, I don't know that this exists, but this is what I want-what do you want?

For the one with whom infinity will not be enough.

  To the one who will ask, for the one that’ll hear my vows; ‘ I do’ wrapped up in lilac.   Two words dressed in apparent frailty, spoken ...
