What is love? Love is a euphoric high that captivates your soul. It can range from passionate and consuming to diminishing and dull. Either way, love is a fiber that is weaved throughout the patchwork of our lives. I have been fortunate enough to experience love first hand. As a child, my parents and family showed me unconditional love. As I grew older, I found friends who were able to love me in spite of my flaws. I eventually found love with some very special men who made me feel like the most beautiful woman in the world.
Now, in my 30's I have finally found a love like no other. I fell in love with myself. I know that seems pretty narcissistic but I struggled most of my life to love the reflection that looked back at me. I'm finally at a point in my life where I am truly happy and satisfied with who I am. I think love is more than a four letter word. It is what every hopeless romantic yearns for; to feel appreciated, valued, needed and desired by someone who will love you in spite of it all. I define love simply as being an emotion that permeates my soul and resonates within me. Being in love feels like a healing balm has rushed over me and just soothed my broken heart and restored my bruised spirit.
I'm fortunate enough to work within an industry where I am constantly surrounded by love & romance. It is always a refreshing change to hear about how couples met, fell in love and why they have decided to get married. I'm always surprised to hear how different the male perspective and female perspective is on the exact same story. It's cute and comical because it is raw and totally unscripted but it shows their vulnerability. So, from my experiences I have decided to create this blog to explore both sides of the love spectrum. I hope you will enjoy this journey and we can grow together. I will feature some individuals and couples on the site to add to the dialogue. Next week I'll introduce you to Mr. Big, our in house male perspective. So until next time, tell me how do you define love?
