Humans are social beings

Beings that crave interaction, love, attention.

Humans, no matter how tough, no matter how rigid, no matter the “tough guy or girl”

All humans want love even if they don’t show it or boldly ask for it.

Everyone wants someone in their little corner, someone to rant to, someone to tell their joy, pain, anger, become a chatterbox or maybe just stay quiet in the calmness of their company with no words shared.

For some people, as they walk on the streets, go to the mall, go to parties, they are actively looking for that one person to fill up that void.

Some are not even looking, pretend to be content in their solitude but then, when the lights go out and the music of the day fades, they curl up in a circle and a part of them longs for someone to listen to their struggles, and just hold on to them reminding them that they are doing good and will be all fine.

I’m not sure why humans are created this way but it is an incredibly beautiful and dangerous thing.

A number of times we enter into relationships we shouldn’t just in a bid to fill up that void, we endure things we shouldn’t in relationships just because we don’t want to be alone.

We keep pushing, forgiving and forgetting who we are, just because the thought of being alone scares us, the thought of having no one to call at the end of the day and give a 500 word essay of how our day went or just the thought of knowing there’s someone somewhere that is yours or not. Lol.

But then sometimes we get into some and it is the most beautiful thing ever, it feels like you found a part of you that had always been missing, like you were rejoined with the missing piece of your puzzle, you are happy, genuinely happy, there’s randomly a smile on your face as you think of them, and it feels like you were set on fire, it feels like you were given new lungs cause how does breathing get so much easier, your chest usually constricted and tight is free and light.

Love is a beautiful thing but then be sure that you are not killing yourself out of your natural instincts for love.

Listen to your guts, make love work but if it does not want to work and you are beginning to lose who you are by holding on, please, let go.

Let go even if it’s going to be you and your lonely ass on days where you just want to talk and pour out your soul.

Get a book, write, read, work, listen to some calming music, sleep.

Love makes us as humans.

Love defines us more than we realize.

But we can always decide what to do with love.

And love can also decide what to do with us but it’s dependent on our disposition to love.

Anyway, all I say is choose wisely, avoid desperation, always!

Love will come, a beautiful one if I may say.

Thank you for reading to the end, don’t forget to clap(50 times if you may), and comment, I’d like to hear your thoughts. Ciao!
