An Overly Used Word

Love is an overly used word, which not a large number of people really know the meaning of. So here’s to those people who don’t know the meaning to the word love, or even think they know what love is!

So what is love exactly? I say love is different to everyone. There is no set definition to love. To me love is pure, having no faults, it is honestly felt. Love is that feeling of butterflies in your belly, the weak knees, the pounding of your heart, and non-stop thought of the other person. People say they love someone because of the way they look. That isn't love. Love is when you can't do anything without thinking about that person, you always want to be with them; that is when love is unconditional.

After all, it has sparked wars and ended feuds. For example, the play "Romeo and Juliet." Love has also in scandalous difference, brought out the sinister side in all of us. People have murdered for love, stolen, hurt, and abused. To some people love is non-existent until it is shown to others. Love can be shown to others by simply just giving a hug, making the other person feel respected and important, being there for them, or even doing homework together. Love is just showing you care for them, whoever it shown to!
