I find the most wonderful thing in this world evolves around love. Love is the guide that we follow to emotionalize in our lives. Love is the one pure thing we have that plays a major role in evoking emotion.
    When it is strong, we uplift to a higher plane of thought and continue on a positive cognitive through life. The world becomes our oyster. We are powerful. The effects of reality doesn't exist. But, when love has either been taken from us or not felt, the outcome is bleak...we look at the world through heavy eyes. Mismanagement of our emotions seems to be warranted. Depression, it is called. Lack of effort and no real meaning can be found for our existence in life. Goals seem unimportant.
     It is normal to feel this way in the beginning of post relationships, but shouldn't be felt for a long period of time. Lack of self esteem is the cause for a continuing effect of depression. Positive thinking can reverse any effect of negativity. I personally don't think anyone can survive without the power of love. There is a lot of people that have been scarred by love and refuse to open up their heart. Trusting in Love is a strong team. When it is abused ..it hurts painfully.
    The best feeling in the world is what we refer to as the "honey moon stage" in all relationships. The feeling of empowerment. To feel free and emotionally stable.
    If more people could see the effects of this time and learn from it rather than take it for granted, the "Honeymoon Stage" would last forever.
    One goal I try to invoke into all my relationships. Usually, what I have found is the other person has the lack of effort and looses the urge to continue. You push to continue with no return. A hard battle in the course of love that leads to smothering and emotional letdown.
    "I love you", is simplicity and should always be a factor in all relationships. What's the difference between "I love you", and "I'm in love with you"?
    In love means the ways it is felt, being "In" the heart, or inside the soul. Like saying forever. To feel it from the inside out, a deep felt emotion. "I love you" means you are accepted, someone cares about you, an expression of love.
  An expression of love is "I Love You!"
   An emotion of love is "I'm in love with you!"
