everyday
of
our
life...
But why do we desire it? We all have our different reasons. A girl longs for what a girl longs for. We desire what we see around us. We don't want to feel the loneliness that surfaces every time a commercial romance holiday comes to town.
It doesn't help much that movies parade true love around like it is something you come by everyday. Because it's not. No love is true the moment you first lay eyes on someone. It doesn't happen that way in the real world. You can be attracted. But true love comes through a lifetime's effort. Not just a two second montage or glimpse into the soul.
Fairy tales also gave us the dream that our first love will be our only one. But how are you supposed to know a love is true if you won't allow your heart to be broken a few times? I know one thing I will never be good at is getting my heart broken. I would rather sustain the misery of the relationship rather than feeling alone and unworthy of happiness. I am far too sensitive. But I've got to try. Besides, every broken heart means you are closer to the one who truly deserves you.
So don't throw yourself at the first guy who talks to you. The first guy who takes you on a romantic walk on the beach. The first guy who kisses you in the rain. The first guy who looks you in the eye and tells you he loves you. Hold off a bit. Wait a while. You have plenty of time for that in the future.
Great piece of advice from a friend of mine regarding engagement:
Before you think about marriage, know your true love's attitude during all four seasons. This way there is no surprises when united forever and always. <3
