This i believe.
love.
As cheesy as it sounds, I believe in love. Love is the most powerful thing in this world.
Personally, I do not like romantic love stories, I don‘t even like romance, but I truly think that love is the most important feeling that we have.
Growing up I never liked watching romantic movies, because I never understood the reason everybody was chasing another person their whole lives, the reason they dreamed and sought only love. I always thought that my life goal was being happy, not marrying some guy. I believe that now too, only throughout the years I‘ve learned that if I want to be happy, I have to learn how to love. Not specifically another person, but how to love life that I‘m living.
Everyday I‘m learning to love myself. This is the first step in living life happily. It is not very easy to do that, because I can always find a flaw in me. That‘s the reason I‘m learning to accept those flaws and find something powerful in me. This path of love for myself won‘t be easy, but I‘m ready to fight for my happiness, even if I have to fight myself.
Another thing I realised was that expressing my feelings is also an important part of life. When I was 16 years old I lost my best friend. All I kept thinking for days was If he knew that I loved him and if he knew that I really cared for him, but he couldn‘t answer my questions, because he was long gone.That is the reason I now try to remind my friends and family members as much as I can that I love them. My experience taught me to never hesitate and always express my feelings, so I‘m sure that another person knows that he is loved by me.
The most important thing I have learned is that if I want to be happy, I have to love my life no matter what. Life is the only thing that I truly have – I can lose my family, friends, home, and money, but I will still be able to live. That‘s the reason I have to appreciate this treasure – my life that I‘m living for the first and the only time. I would say that it was easier for me to understand that because I do not believe in life after death and that is the reason I chose to live now and invest in myself and my life now.
I want to live a happy life and that is the reason I chose love. I‘m not chasing my beloved one. I‘m trying to love everything that surrounds me. I believe that helps me to look at life positively and find many ways to be happy. Loving life might not seem easy, but it is worth it, because you have to ask yourself whether you want to enjoy your life or just exist among others.
