What is love in your perspective and how do you know when you feel it?

In my perspective although I've never felt love, this is how I would describe it. When you find love you not only find a person who is with you through good and bad, you find someone who you can learn from, someone who you can trust, and somebody who balances out your life. Love isn’t about being affectionate and having to be told that you are loved, love is about being yourself. I lied earlier when I said I have never felt love, and to be honest I was just being close minded. I do love. I love me. Love is growth, and for a long time I thought I “never” felt it, clearly in the beginning of this question you can see that, but that’s okay, because I’m still growing. Love is about how you feel towards yourself and your actions, and honestly if you don’t learn that, no matter how hard you want to, you’ll never find love."

Who would you go to or who would you think about if you suddenly lost everything one day?

If I lost everything tomorrow, at least I’d know I still have myself. I’m not the type of person that relies on anyone else to make me feel okay. This is a good thing because I have learned that without me, I’m nothing. Obviously right? But many people don’t know that. You are the most important thing in your own life, and it’s not selfish, it’s the truth. That’s why people have so many problems with figuring themselves out and knowing what to do in situations like these. If I lost everything tomorrow, I’d have nothing left but to create the strength to lift myself up and start from the beginning.
