Love, what is it really? We hear about it all of the time but do we truly know what it is? Since we were children women were raised to fall in love and become wives and then mothers. We have all seen it the little girls dressed up in high heels and wearing makeup. They read us stories about Cinderella, snow white, Rapunzel, sleeping beauty, bell, Mulan, Jasmine, and even Pocahontas all finding their princes. From the baby dolls we carried around when we were younger to the easy bake ovens they used to teach us how to cook we have been in school learning how to be women since we were girls.  But when statistics tell us 50% of marriages fail we have to ask ourselves what exactly has happened to the happily ever after that we were raised to believe would someday be our own.

We have all seen it the little girls dressed up in high heels and wearing makeup. The statistics that show how young girls are when they enter into their first serious relationship. Today if anything is clear it is that we all hunger for love and seek it but it seems that happily ever after has an expiration date.  In my own opinion we all have a responsibility to fight culture as it teaches us to fall head over heels for a boy and expect him to be a man. A movie where a woman spends several years learning the heart of her potential suitor before she decides to commit to his once he has purposed to her may not be a best seller but it does teach young girls to look deeper than the “romantic” actions we promote now in media. Girls should be trained to look at the character of a man and ask herself if he treats her in a way that honors her worth not if he loves her enough to steal her heart. We should be teaching young me n to look at women as a precious and not in the terms of possession but instead in terms of communion. If young males were raised to tame their urges and only pursue a woman in hopes of romantic relationship to give of themselves and love her with all of their minds, hearts, souls, and bodies. The young mind is so precious and should be molded consciously. When we look at the issues we have in romantic realms we must first ask ourselves what we believe, what we feel, and where we have learned to believe these things from.

Never forget you are valuable and do not have to settle or sell yourself short love is not just a word or a feeling it is also a promise and a commitment.

100% of people want love you can know what it truly is!
