Four Letter Word


My favorite four letter word is Love.

I love... Love. I truly do.

Love is the rawest form of vulnerability that can be shown in another soul.

Love is intense and hard and incredible and the most rewarding thing of all. It can consume you entirely and make you want to be the best possible version of yourself. Love is the greatest emotion I've ever felt. There are times where I'm so overwhelmed by the amount of love that I'm feeling, that I just can't muster the words to express it all blooming out of my chest. It ignites my heart and soul in a way that I never knew before. 

But like I said above, it's one's greatest vulnerability. From more of a lover's standpoint, it's a risk. Every single time. You're putting your heart on the front line. But the risk is worth it. Love is worth it. It's always worth it.     

I'll see it in a post of a couple on Instagram, or between a mother and her child walking in the park, or I'll hear it in a new song, or I'll read about it in an article, or I'll see it in the eyes of my own lover, when he looks at me. I'll never tire of seeing love showcased daily. There's too much hurt in the world to ever grow tired of seeing the happiness that love brings. 

I hope you have a weekend engulfed in nothing but love. xoxo
