Definition Of Love
Love is a funny thing. You expect it to be easy. You expect it to be a world of roses and laughs and perfect moments that you find only in movies. You expect her to always say the right thing, and always know exactly how you feel, or exactly how to react to it. You expect her to calm you down when you're yelling or to chase you when you run away. You expect so much that you feel entirely, and utterly defeated when something doesn't exactly match up with all your plans. But that's the thing. Love isn't a plan. It doesn't have a certain beginning and it certainly has no end or visible finish line to those deeply in it.
Love happens; it is so incredibly messy. People around you can't comprehend why you do the things you do, or why you fight so hard for something that seems to cause you so much pain, because simply, they can't see. They can't see the invisible ring of insanity that surrounds you when you're in love. It's inconvenient and painful and devastating at times, but we can't live without it. What you don't learn is how hard love is. How much work it takes. How much of ourselves we have to put into it. How it isn't worth it until we are complete and utter idiots about it.
Love isn't her calming you down when you yell. It's her yelling, just as loud, just as hard, right back at you, right in your face to wake you up and to keep you grounded. It isn't her/him bringing you roses everyday or cute things that make your relationship appear more presentable.
It's after a long fight, that drains the life and bones right out of you both, and yet her showing up at your door the next morning anyway. It's not her saying all the right things or knowing exactly how to handle you. So no, it's not her caressing your hair and telling you everything is going to be alright. It's her standing there, admitting she's just as scared as you are. You have to remember that with love, you're not the only one involved. You've unknowingly put your life, your heart into the palms of another persons hands and said, here. Do what you will. Mash it into mince meat. Or forget I ever handed it to you. As long as you have it.
It makes us crazy. It makes reality invisible and it erases all the lines that we shouldn't cross. Because love isn't about fencing ourselves in; feeling safe, feeling sure about the future. It's about scaring the shit out of every nerve in our body, but pushing forward anyway. Because all the fighting and all the tears and all the uncertainty is worth it. And it's a hell of a lot better, than being 100% happy without someone to show us that there is a world of a difference between feeling "happy" and feeling whole.

Definicon De Amor
El amor es una cosa divertida, esperamos que sea fácil, esperamos que sea un mundo de rosas y risas y momentos perfectos que se encuentran sólo en las películas, esperas que diga siempre lo correcto, y siempre saber exactamente cómo te sientes, o exactamente cómo reaccionar ante el, esperas que te calme cuando estas gritando o te persiga cuando te escapas. Esperas tanto que te sientes enteramente y totalmente derrotado cuando algo no coincide exactamente con todos tus planes. Pero esa es la cosa, el amor no es un plan. No tiene un comienzo determinado y, ciertamente no tiene final o una visible línea final o visibles para aquellos profundamente en él.
El amor solo pasa, es tan increíblemente desordenado que las personas a tu alrededor no pueden comprender porque haces las cosas que haces o porque luchas tanto por algo que al parecer te causa tanto dolor; porque simplemente ellos no pueden ver. Ellos no pueden ver el anillo invisible de la locura que te envuelve cuando estas enamorado. Es incomodo y doloroso y devastador aveces, pero no podemos vivir sin el. Lo que no aprendemos es lo difícil que es amar, cuanto trabajo se necesita, cuanto tenemos que poner de nosotros mismos en el,y tal vez solo vale la pena cuando estamos totalmente y absolutamente idiotas al respecto.
El amor no es que te calme cuando gritas, es gritar tan alto, tan fuerte, regresando a ti, despertarte justo en su cara y mantenerte en tierra, no es que te lleve rosas todos los días o cosas lindas que hagan que una relación parezca presentable.
Es que después de una larga lucha que drena la vida y los huesos de los dos, aun se muestre en tu puerta a la mañana siguiente, de todas formas. No es decirte las cosas correctas o saber exactamente como manejarte. No, no es el (o ella) acariciando tu cabello y diciéndote que todo estará bien. Es que se quede allí, admitiendo que esta tan asustad@ como tu. Tienes que recordar que en el amor no eres el único implicado, sin saberlo has puesto tu vida, tu corazón en las palmas de las manos de otra persona y dijiste, aquí. Has lo que quieras, pícalo como carne o olvida que alguna vez te lo entregue, siempre y cuando lo tengas tu.
Nos vuelve locos, se hace realmente invisible y borra todas las lineas que no deben cruzarse. Porque el amor no es sobre nosotros mismos en esgrima, sentirse seguro, seguro sobre el futuro. Se trata de estar asustado como el carajo de todos los nervios de nuestro cuerpo, pero empujar hacia adelante de todos modos. Es que todos los combates y todas las lágrimas y toda la incertidumbre valen la pena. Y es un infierno mucho mejor, que estar 100% feliz sin alguien que nos muestran que hay un mundo de diferencia entre sentirse "feliz" y sentirse completo.
