Why we Love?

Posted on at


What does love bring you?  Companionship, I suppose this is one of the main reasons people go all out to find love or to be loved.  However, along with this comes the stress, betrayal, disappointment and a scenario of evolving problems that you may not have bargained for.  Is is worth it really?  You tend to feel all light headed and bubbly being loved.  You believe you are wanted and appreciated then you are led to believe you can commit to this feeling as you have found the right one.  We have not come to see that all these emotions are a snare.

Easily we become ensnared in the trap of the system of paying bills, vicious competition in the work place,  achieving financial freedom (you're still not happy because you have to work even harder to stay on top), pursuing further higher education, taking loans and the list goes on.  Perhaps being single, you may not seek to invest your energies in exhaustive goals.  The need, however, to ensure that our family, the progeny has a secure future causes us to pursue such things.  Then the joy of pursuit becomes a chore and is no longer done for self-actualization but because the need exists to maintain and provide.   Love in these scenarios usually becomes strained and people tend to forget important small details because of the extensive demands that are constantly badgered upon them. Consequently, the decision to move forward or stand still in the growing tide of progress may give rise to even bigger issues in the love circle.

You may not want to think that love can eventually turn into a field of stress and monotonous routine.  The truth is, it does thus why so many try to bring the magic back into their relationships as the reality of what it can become stares them in the face.  My next blog will allude to the foundation and proper approach to a relationship that will stand the test of the economy and time.
