Why not read up on these 8 things, and feel those long-forgotten butterflies in your tummy. And believe in true love once more.
#1. Old married couples :
Getting married in a grandiose wedding with an orchestra playing all the world’s love songs is one thing—actually fulfilling that lifelong commitment is another. Anyone can say they love their partners, but it’s until you stand by them through the tests of fate and time that you truly make true love come alive.
When you look at old married couples sharing a walk, holding hands, and looking at each other like yesterday was when they had their first date, all your cynicism dissolves at the sight of enduring love. When you see old married couples, you’ll know theirs may not be the perfect fairy tale relationship; but they stuck it through with each other, choosing love above all—and that in itself is the genuine kind of love so rare it doesn’t really happen to just anyone.
#2. Music :
True love moves you, inspires you, and changes you for the better.
If you haven’t experienced true love for yourself, you feel it just by listening to a musician play his guitar, stroke the keys of a piano, or sing their heart out. Through music, you feel their love as if it were your own. You can experience true love as well as passion with every note and melody. True love uplifts you and stirs deep emotions within you. Music is a beautiful expression of that love.
#3. Art :
Much like music, other forms of expression such as art show you true love does exist. Whether it is a mural from centuries ago to a modern abstract painting you happen to glance at on the street, art is a deep and immense proof true love exists. Even if you haven’t experienced it for yourself. Artists have a power to translate their own feelings of true love—its loss, the happiness, its fleeting or enduring quality, or the chaos it sometimes brings—through whatever their medium is.
Whether it’s with paint and canvass, spray paint and the wall, or multimedia, believe in true love because someone felt it and captured it for you to also experience. That’s the way art works—to show you there are indeed multiple faces of true love for you to revel in.
#4. Literature :
Literature provides you with a profound window into the heart and soul of the writer and how he or she perceives the world.
Literature, whether fiction, poetry, or any other, paints you a picture of the depths and vastness of true love. From the characters of the story to the way the plot unfolds, you see how true love can be so real, so genuinely heartfelt, even through books. Such literature also moves and inspires you, as well as millions of other readers. It teaches you so many things about true love that you never even knew possible.
#5. Arguments and fights :
Any relationship will have its substantial amount of tumult. It doesn’t mean that just because people love each other that things should always be perfect. In fact, it is during these downs in life that you measure the depths of love and say that it is indeed true.
However, let’s not confuse this with emotional and psychological abuse or physical violence. These are products of manipulation and power struggle in a relationship, which is not what true love is all about. Arguments, disagreements, and conflicts are inevitable in any relationship, and the test of true love overcomes these difficulties and rises above it all in a healthy, productive manner. True love comes up with solutions and resolutions, and those who are in real loving relationships thrive and develop as a couple and as individuals through these growing pains.
#6. Differences :
Imagine a couple together for many years and still happily in love with each other. They may have many differences. In fact, they may even be each other’s total opposites. And yet, they are in love after all this time.
True love doesn’t discriminate. It doesn’t choose who it visits. Even if you imagine your future spouse in your head, you’ll be surprised that fate has something totally different to give you—but it works. Accepting and understanding each other’s flaws and differences is what makes true love so exceptional—and rare. So, if you see a loving couple who are total opposites, ask them why they’re still together. You may learn a thing or two about true love.
#7. Acceptance and forgiveness :
While fights are mere bumps in the road towards long-lasting love, it is forgiveness that makes it so much more profound.
Like Kintsugi, the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold, relationships ravaged by trials and disagreements can only be made more beautiful when you make amends and forgive each other. True love is a strong commitment, a promise, to be there for each other through whatever comes your way. You don’t really have to be married to make such a commitment. It is through those dark hours of pain and the loud bickering that true love shines through—because you chose to look beyond all that and see that the love you have for each other is bigger than the things that try to tear you apart.
#8. YOU :
Look in the mirror and you’ll see that true love does exist. You have a desire motivating you to pursue your interests, career, passions, and other things. This desire moves you, and from this intangible desire, you make things possible, you make things happen. Aside from self-love, you have an inner fire burning within you that is a living, breathing proof of true love.
The world is full of evidence of true love, big and small.
So does true love exist? Well, you don’t need grand gestures of love like in the movies. You can see true love in those quiet, mundane moments—if you only know where to look.
Thanks for Reading..:)😅😄😃
