People tend to believe that love is always about romance, and about passion, but people are also inclines to forget that love is not always about that.  It is about sacrifice, misery and giving.  We have to give up a lot of things to achieve true love that all of us seek.  Some of us got it, but some failed on this game of romantic life.

Presently, people do not always have to meet the person personally to find love.  A lot of us find love through the internet…in the past; a person dates a person through candle lights, flowers and gifts.  Spending time with that person help to discover things that only love can do.  But today’s generation does not always date traditionally, but they have this online dating that they say creates a sense of adventure.

Why adventure? Adventure, because online dating is a lot more fun, and it’s not conventional in the first place.  What more, it’s very entertaining to flirt with someone with you having no knowledge about him.  And with him having different culture, different race, and different color.  Online dating is a very amusing endeavor since it’s like playing a puzzle, which enhance your capacity to think not in an emotional manner as well as in an intellectual aspect of your being.  We could divert our lives to a more exciting but dangerous fixation.

Online dating requires a lot of precision, a wiser mind, a tough decision and a good head to rule all.  It’s like a maze where in you could disappear in its twist and turn and lost yourself if you are naïve enough to let it swift you away.

One thing is for sure, you have to be very extra careful….

Sometimes, people get confuse with being in-love with the person or just in-love with LOVE itself.  A person who will turn the world upside down for the sake of another person is in-love with that person.  Or is he/she?  Love has a very complicated definition.  It can be define as a strong emotional attachment to another individual.  It can be define as a deep feeling of sexual desire and attraction.  An expression to one’s affection, and many more meanings we can’t even comprehend in a deeper level.  Oftentimes, we mistake loving love rather than loving the person itself.  We love for the sake of LOVE.  Tsk, tsk!

Now that the annual big event is coming, we are beginning to prepare presents, surprises, items that we think our loved-ones desire.  We tend to choose things that would cost much because we thought our love can be measured by the value of the stuff we give.  We are being blinded for loving love.  We offer expensive gifts for the sake of the celebration, for the sake of the occasion we used to celebrate.  We really doesn’t prepare for the ones we love but for the occasion. 

For me, love really is a non-definite hollow, you may fill lots and lots of substance in it, and it will never be fully filled.  It has no boundary, no meaning.  It’s just an empty word in a wide space, crammed up with junks.  We are the one who named it, but I’m not so sure if all of us really understand it.

Loving a person is a big deal and we could never love another being if we won’t start loving ourselves first.  This coming VALENTINES DAY, I hope we already understood the true meaning of LOVE.

If I were you, I will ask this question first before committing to love someone.

Do I really love this person?  Or I’m just in love with love?
