It Is, It Isn't

What is love?

To love someone is to respect someone

To love someone is to value someone

To love someone is to want someone to be free-spirited

Loving someone is not needing someone

Loving someone is not forced

Loving someone does not require someone to be perfect

Love goes without saying

Love can be found anywhere

Love is boundless

Love is not transactional

Love is not to be idealized

Love is certainly not to be regarded as a trophy

Love is something you feel

Love is comfortable

Love is often distorted

Loving someone is loving yourself enough before you love someone else
