Love - You Can Feel It And See It

      This thing called loved is something that people are trying to understand and have tried to understand for some time. Can you see it? What does it look like? What does it feel like? I make no claim to be an expert on the subject, just someone with life experience, who reads and observes things around him.

Does this thing called love still exist in the year 2010?

       I believe it does and here is why? Couples still together for more than five or more years or still married, after 15, 25 or more declare their love and commitment to each other. What is it that has kept them together? This thing called love. They persevered, they communicate, they are there for each other and they have been through the good times and the bad. Love is demonstrated by what we do. Don't confuse this with gifts and the act of coitus. Coitus has little to do with loving and being committed to someone. Love is not something you make, it's not something you simply say, it's what you show and do on a consistent basis over time. Yes, love still exists in this century. There are still couples, together, happy and have the experience that hard times will bring. Where you make it through difficult times, together, you build trust, memories, confidence in each other and over time, they can truly say they love each other. Love is an action word. You communicate it best, when you show it. You communicate love by your actions so when you say it, it can be easily received by the object of your affection.

Love - You Can Feel It And See It.

        But, you have to recognize it when you see  it. You cant conjure it up by wearing something special. When someone truly cares for and about you they will prove it by their actions. This is not to say, love is proven when a person simply says it or buys you something. It takes time to know if the actions of a person are true. If being thoughtful, courteous, respectful, loving and kind are being faked, a person wont be able to keep this act for long. Are the feelings or actions forced? Or do the things a person naturally does (when they should know and care about you) seem to be missing? Sincerity is something you can feel when it comes from a person close to you. In the dynamics of a committed relationship, when you know a person, and you have a history, you can judge and gauge their sincerity based on your knowledge of them. Hows that? You had the opportunity to gather enough information (through experience) about them (their personality, their likes and dislikes, their dreams) during the beginning of the courting phase of the relationship. When its love, you don't have to look hard for it, you don't have to wonder of guess if they love you; you can see and feel it coming from the person who loves you.
