Friends

Write about something old, something new, or something borrowed.

What can be both something old or something new? Something borrowed or something blue? The answer is love. Or so say I. And since I'm the one answering this topic. Yeah, love is the answer.

There are so many different kinds of love. Love of animals. Love of some fictional character, book, tv show, or movie. Love of holidays. Love of wine, women, and song. Love of friends. Love of family. Yet no matter what kind of love it is, the power to love and be loved is truly the greatest thing in the world.

The most wonderful kind of love is one that never ends... a love that persists through good times and bad. Love of family. Love of friends. Those two are amongst the most wonderous of all. For love of family and friends are the most meaningful connections that a soul will ever find in life. And such love is eternal love that will always stand the test of time.

Yet recent friendships, or even the unique bonds developed on such things as the internet can touch ones soul deeply. Can leave a positive impression on ones life forever. Love can be found in so many different places. It can be found when one doesn't even know they need it, or don't even realize their looking for it.

Love is a beautiful thing. Love is the most powerful force in the universe. Stronger than hate. Stronger than any evil the world can ever throw at you. Nothing is stronger than a love that is pure and true.

Love can be painful at times. Some wrongly think that love is all about happiness and hugs. It's not. Love hurts. Real love will always hurt. Loved ones can't help hurting each other. And truth be told if we didn't feel hurt, then we never really cared. You have to care about someone to be disappointed and heartbroken. Whether intentional or not, the hurt is real, and can take a long time to heal. Like when a loved one goes away. Whatever reason why they left, your heart will ache til they come home. And if you are unfortnuate enough to lose a loved one. Your heart will forever hurt, for your love of them will never fade away.

So to truly love you have to open your heart and risk heartbreak. It also doesn't hurt to remember that loved ones are neither perfect, nor immortal. They will make mistakes. Regardless of their screwups or trainwrecks. If one is not able to forgive... not able to love someone despite their flaws and weaknesses. Well, I feel sorry for those who are unable to love unconditionally. Unable to love with all their heart and soul. For they will never know the true power that comes from such selfless love. They will never know eternal love. A love so powerful that it only grows stronger with the passage of time. Growing into a ever deeper and a more meaningful connection. Two souls forever linked... forever united... eternally sharing their love together.

Love is good. Think that sums up my point of view on the subject. And with that I'll finish off this post talking about another love that I feel all around me. A love so strong that it fills me with nothing but happiness and joy. It is that most wonderous time of year once again. It's Christmas time. The most beautiful of all holidays has different meaning to different people. For me its not about giving or receiving some gift. It's about letting someone know that you are thinking about them. Letting a loved one know that you value and appreciate them. That is the most important thing. All the positive vibes and well wishes that so many share this time of year. All the kindness, and friendship that is freely given to friend and stranger alike, is the best gift one can ever give.

May everyone find nothing but joy, peace, goodwill, and above all else, love in the New Year to come.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Everyone:)
