Love is you...

                

I am certainly not an expert on the subject of LOVE, but really who is... 

I was browsing the web the other day and came across this amazing quote and I giggled to myself for a few moments because Bob Marley wrote it,  I was taken by the pure innocence it reveals... Most people try to find the "perfect person"  what does that even mean???  

“You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She's not perfect - you aren't either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break - her heart. So don't hurt her, don't change her, don't analyze and don't expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she's not there.”        Bob Marley

How can this make such sense,  the truth of the matter is that sometimes we make life so complicated and truthfully if we don't take time to admire and love someone for who they are, we will lose out in life,  we will spend our life chasing a dream instead of living in the moment...  Life was not intended to be so complicated, so commercial, so virtual, life was not meant to be a family sitting around a table texting their friends or updating their facebook status, life was meant to spend time with people, to take in the small moments, to enjoy one another in the best of times and to be there for one another in the worst.

Life is simple, it tends to be over complicated and I know even myself I make life complex at times,  take time to appreciate the small things,this makes life alot more precious.  Meaningful relationships need to be charished and worked on daily, we can not take people in our lives for granted.

You can not give yourself to anyone fully until you take time to get to know yourself, take time to breathe, take time to be alone and be okay with being totally alone and feel comfortable being alone, and continue to breathe... At the end of the day if you look in the mirror are you okay with who you are, Then once you are smile and know that you have finally found true love deep within your own heart. 
This love will never be forgotten or mistreated, this love will be strong and true.  

The moral to this post is...Take time for you, 

Until next time, 
Coll xo
