Why am I so obsessed about love lately? Have I found?

Love!Love!!Love!!! The people's paradise

Love is a deep and complex emotion that connects people in profound ways.Love is one of the most important powerful experiences humans could encounter in their everyday life.It shapes friendships, relationship,art,culture and traditions and our day-to-day growth. Love can bring joy, happiness, fulfilment and add a lot of meaning to life as a whole, but it requires a lot of effort, patience, profound trust and a deep sense of understanding.

Love grows beyond simple attraction or affection. Love is seen as an inbuilt connection which involves communication and care.
Love is expressed in different ways; romantic love,familial love, friendships,self love or unconditional love. Romantic love is the love most people are likely interested in. It is a type of connection between individuals involving deep affection, physical intimacy and a desire of always being with each other.

It doesn't just come like that, it goes in stages. It may come with attraction, learning to know each other,i.e; strengthening your friendship,moving beyond attraction to a connection, facing challenges together, building trust,and being a couple.
I personally have been expressing love in one way or the Giving compliments and encouragement, expressing gratitude and appreciation, spending quality time with family and friends, engaging in deep conversations,e.t.c

The one I most likely get involved with is unconditional love.Its love without expectations, conditions or limitations.It is a love from the heart, always done willingly irrespective of a person's mistakes or circumstances. Unconditional love doesn't mean tolerance or sacrifice, it means loving in a way that is pure and deeply from the heart.I expressed unconditional love to my parents when I tackled their financial needs.

I did same to my partner when they she was completely drained.I have not only helped financially, I supported her dreams and ambitions without asking for anything in return. I always tried my possible best to forgive her even when she offends me badly. To my friends, I've always been through with them through hardships, even when others leave, I always celebrate their successes and cry with them during their downfall. To myself,I prioritize my mental well-being and my physical well-being.

I always believe in myself and I never lacked low self esteem, endeavoring to care and love myself despite my imperfections.The few ways in which I try to help people around me with the little I have or with encouraging words means a lot to me because it is pure, selfless and enduring. When it comes to giving, I'll say I want to always do more and more because the people I help either financially or otherwise always show appreciation one way or the other. They use words of affirmation like"I love you",or a warm hug which puts a smile on my face. Some go as far as trying to extend the same love to me which I never take for granted.

However, some responded with a negative energy,not as the one I gave out as love.I never blamed them or accused them of being ungrateful but I was always cheerful knowing that it's from my heart. At some point, I was discouraged from being that loving person as I was, because some of their attitudes towards the gifts or assistance shown to them was down to the drain.I often wondered.

Am I doing too much?? Is my act of kindness showing I have pride or I'm being boastful?? But I all I knew is that my unconditional love was from a pure and genuine heart, so I never bothered myself but was always eager to continue to give more and more. I always have in mind that I'm helping not for the words of gratitude but for the unconditional love I have for humanity.

There is more happiness in giving than in receiving"makes me smile and remember that happiness is key to showing love to everyone we meet. Therefore, i advice you to always try as much as possible to show any type of love because with this we can be sure of acquiring trust, respect, and commitment to thrive through,connect with different people and make life meaningful and better for you and the people around you .
