More than just a feeling

My brother asked me once, "Do you know what love is?"  I was young then, and although his question lingered with me for years, it took time for me to truly understand its significance. Through growth and learning, I now realize that love is more than just a feeling, it's about standing by someone through thick and thin, through the good times and the bad. As he once said, "Would you still love him if he turned for the worse? That's what love is all about." Love is a magical experience that cannot be simply put into words, and I cherish my free spirit because life is never just black and white. There may be those who fail to comprehend the true nature of love and express disapproval, but I firmly believe that facing challenges is an inevitable part of any relationship. What truly matters is personal growth and development as both an individual and a partner, driven by the powerful force of changing for the sake of love. My inner voice has always urged me ''to take a leap of faith'', even when the physical was urging me to run in the opposite direction. It's a feeling I've experienced before, and I've learned to trust it, even though at times it can be difficult to differentiate between this calling and my own anxiety. Yet, I'm still learning and growing, and I sense that you have the same calling as well, as evidenced by your unwavering presence by my side, even when the odds were stacked against us. Still we've managed to come even closer. Through thick and thin, through the good times and the bad, aways by your side as you are by mine. I eagerly anticipate the unfolding of this chapter in our lives.
