Love Reality VS. Self-Thinking
Pictures 4Ever

Love is a weird thing that is very different to people. But is it truthfully? Not really. There is what we think love is and then there is what love is in reality. But everyone thinks differently and it can be difficult to decide the difference between just a thought and the reality.

So, in most people’s eyes, love is finding someone that you can agree with but not fully. It also means that the two people were meant to be together. These two people usually are interested in each other and have usually known each other for a while or so. They could get to know each other very well over the course of days, weeks or months and be very comfortable with one another. This ends up being a friendship, then best friends, and then they become a couple. This is the most common thought concerning love, but it is not the only one. Most people think of love as a way to meet a soulmate or the person that will be with them forever.

In reality, love is nothing more than the hardest thing you could ever possibly do. It is a road that gets traveled way too many times and only gets more and more divots. Everyone who travels down this road is met with hardship and the fact that it is just fights, arguments and anger. Metaphorically, it rains pain and hardship. But those who take the time and work through everything with their significant other can make to the end of the road and be able to say they found true happiness. This is true and to most people, it is what their thought process points out love as. This version most people do not agree with but everyone at least knows this way as true or just a thought.

So, the one question that is on everyone’s mind as they read this article is why love is so strange? Well, it is because no one even understands it. So, if it is so misunderstood then why do we seek it so much? Will anyone ever know what it means? Probably not to be honest, but ever since ancient times, people fell in love with other people. Love, whether reality or just your own definition, is a very misunderstood and complex thing to have and experience. And this makes things complicated and can be particularly strange to everyone. So, go find love and see how your definition varies from person to person, and relationship to relationship.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
