Too Young For Love?

A couple years ago there was this argument about being too young to love and that age is just a number because you're never too young for love. I understand that; love can be experienced at every age but what is love?
Love is different from being in love. Love is something most of us know from day one. We get that from our parents or anyone who is taking care of us while we're growing up that's how we know what love is. But falling in love, is so much deeper than we're able to understand. "Falling in love doesn't begin with falling in love with others but with yourself. Loving yourself is healthy. Once you learn to love yourself then you know what its like to be in love with someone else." The reason why people say teens are not in love is because most  don't even know how to love themselves. They don't like the way they look, they wish they can be popular, and they're self conscience about what others think rather then what they think of themselves.

Teens think the only falling in love they can experience is the love from someone else. But its not true. Once they think they love someone, they only experience that love from that person. They have their mind set and focus on that one person when there's more than what that one person can give you but they're too afraid to let them go and not see what someone else has to offer. There's more than the butterflies and more than the tingles from your head down to your toes. Being in love with someone you put their happiness before your own. Most teens can't even do that, that's why we say you're young to be in love. Love is choosing the greater good for the other person at the risk of losing them, and that goes with the love of a mother or father to the love of a boyfriend or girlfriend, husband or wife and friendship as well.
Love is from day one but being in love that something that just doesn't happen automatically in your teen years. That isn't just because you're with someone for years. It's more than that; it's more than what I've explained. Falling in love also has to do with finding yourself without the other half. When you find yourself you know what your other half is suppose to be for you. That's why most marriages end up in divorce, people don't know themselves and when they do, they don't like the person they're with because it just doesn't fit them like they thought it would.
Now don't be offended by this. You're probably not like the teens I've described and most of it is just an assumption and to assume makes an ass out of you and me and I probably did make an ass out of myself. This is my opinion and I've thought about it for many many years and this is what I've concluded. So you can either understand where I'm coming from or not. Because I've watched so many relationships from ones that ended within months to ones that have been together for 50 years and I've compared my own relationships as well as compared it my friends and family. So I'm just saying it how I see it.
Figure out what love is to you. Figure out who you are. You'll know when its love and you'll know when you're in love and when someone is in love with you.

Be Beautiful For You!
