The Power Of Showing Love For One Another

Love, what does that mean to you? What does that sound like? You might be thinking that I am going to talk about relationships and romance, but you’re wrong. This type of love is different. It’s something more powerful and deep. It's something that can change many of us. So what is love? Love is the feeling of showing warmth, allowing for you to feel connected with someone. It isn’t all about the lovey-dovey stuff, it can also mean something different. Why can’t everyone just show love instead of showing so much hate. We all need to learn how to love one another, but hate? Why, for what?

If we all showed and had love for another, the world would be a better place. That is what we need right now and will always need. We are all going through this huge battle right now and the last thing we need is hate. What are we doing? What’s happening?

It feels like a disease that is spreading, the disease of hate. We talk, kill, or even blackmail each other in a way that makes the world look so terrifying. How can one just be so cruel? What is it that motivates them to be who they are? It’s crazy how people want justice, equality, and world peace. But, you do realize that in order for that to happen, there needs to be love first. If we can’t show love to one another and accept each other, then what are we even doing?

Sometimes, it hurts seeing everyone showing hate towards a group of people or even an individual. These days, violence is even in force for showing hate, but why? Look around, stop being so damn blind. What? You are going to hate someone because of their color? Their background? What is it? We live in this generation where everything seems to be a problem, and therefore we show hate to one another. Honestly, if we all can join hands and spread love, things would be much easier. Everyone shares the same feelings, emotions, and we all have a heart. Nothing is different about us, we are all the same. Things could be different and better if the world itself had more love. This feeling can show that we are all in this together and that no one is ever alone. There is just so much hate around that I can’t even think anymore. Sad right?

Promote love, share love, spread it as if tomorrow is the last day to live on this planet. If we want to stop or defend something, then we can at least have one thing in common, which is LOVE. Embrace it, stop being afraid, no one is going to make fun of you, it just shows that you care and have a big heart. Inspire one another and motivate each other to do something great in life, make a difference. Love is a strong word, it’s meaningful, but hate, no, it’s stupid and not cool. Love. Don’t Hate.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
