Love. A feeling that is probably the most sought out emotion there is. It used to mean that when you love someone you are completely devoted to them. You will be there for them through thick and thin. You will call them just to hear there voice because you miss them so much. You are willing to make that commitment of marriage to them because you are so in love with them you can't imagine your life without them.
It seems these days that society has blown the word love out of proportion. I constantly hear people use the phrase "luv ya" to random strangers or people who they would not say they were in love with. I once was at one of my jobs and one of my coworkers was listening to music when she blurts out, "OMG I love this song!" Really? You would marry that song? You could start a family with that song?
Many times you here people using the word to woo another as a way to get a physical relationship out of someone. I personally have been victim of someone saying, "Chelsee, I am in love with you," just to get in my pants. You see celebrities having hour long weddings and getting married dozens of times. This fake love is always in view, always there.
Merriam-Webster defines love as a strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal ties. So where did we as a society go wrong? Yes true love comes along, and when I find my true love I am sure that it will be the best feeling ever, but why did I have to deal with the false love? Who was it that said, "Hey, watch this. I am going to tell them I love you and watch what happens." Who gave the young society the idea that love is not such a strong emotion that should be taken seriously? I am sure I could rant about this topic for hours and throughout many pages, but to save you the trouble of your eyes falling out, I won't. I will say though that love is something that should have true, genuine meaning to a person. With that true emotion, should come the benefits of falling in love.
