Love Is a Battlefield

I think the title is enough explanation in itself.  Dating and falling in love is a such a scary process.  You can meet someone and be entirely entraced by them, and then the next thing you know things are completely different.  But I guess that's all in the name of love. I guess though, if we didin't have such lows when it comes to love, that you also wouldn't feel as much of a high as you do when you find it.  Love isn't meant to last forever with everyone, however I don't think that doesn't mean you didn't love them at some point. There is that person that you meet where that love with them is going to last forever, survive through every trial it is put through, and only grow stronger because of it.  But there are other loves that come in life just to teach you.  Teach you something about yourself, teach you something about life, maybe just to teach you something about love itself.  I personally have had a few different occasions in my where I have loved and gotten hurt, or hurt another. And of course it is hard, it can make you bitter and make you tell yourself that you are taking yourself out of the game of love completely.  However, when I think back on everything I have been through, I don't regret nor would I take back one single second of everything that has happened in my life.  Pain and happiness of love has made me who I am today.  Love is a learning experience, that you can only learn as you go.  Me personally, I'm still in love with the boy that I liked in 3rd grade.  Maybe he is the one for me whose love will stand the test of time.  But for now, it's not something I am going to worry about.  Love comes around in it's own time.  Whether that is tomorrow, or two years spent apart.. only God will know.  :)

Favorite song about Love at this moment in time..
Read the words and listen to their meaning.
I've capitalized my favorite parts of this song. I love it.
"Live Like We're Dying" by Kris Allen

Sometimes we fall down, can't get back up
We're hiding behind skin that's too tough
HOW COME WE DON'T SAY I LOVE YOU ENOUGH?
TILL IT'S TOO LATE, IT'S NOT TOO LATE

Our hearts are hungry for a food that won't come
And we could make a feast from these crumbs
And we're all staring down the barrel of a gun
So if your life flashed before you, what would you wish you would've done?

Yeah, we gotta start looking at the hand of the time we've been given
If this is all we got, then we gotta start thinking
If every second counts on a clock that's ticking
Gotta live like we're dying

We've only got 86-400 seconds in a day to
Turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell them that we love them while we got the chance to say
Gotta live like we're dying

AND IF YOUR PLANE FELL OUT OF THE SKIES
WHO WOULD YOU CALL WITH YOUR LAST GOODBYES?
SHOULD BE SO CAREFUL WHO WE LEFT OUT OF OUR LIVES
AND WHEN WE LONG FOR ABSOLUTION, THERE WILL BE NO ONE ON THE LINE

You never know a good thing till it's gone
You never see a crash till it's head on
Why do we think we're right when we're dead wrong?
You never know a good thing till it's gone

Yeah, gotta start looking at the hands of the time we've been given
If this is all we got, then we gotta start thinking
If every second counts on a clock that's ticking
Gotta live like we're dying

We've only got 86-400 seconds in a day to
Turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell them that we love them while we got the chance to say
Gotta live like we're dying.
