There are a number of different relationships we all experience in life. It is hard to understand how other people feel about you or other people in their life. Everyone looks at love and bonds in different ways, and every single human being expresses love in different way.
Many spend their entire lives in search of true love and still end up dying alone. This is tragic and heartbreaking, however, avoidable. I am guilty of finding someone and falling in love with them. I am guilty of thinking I was in love many times as I was growing up, and in high school and college. Those were just "flings" as most people call them.
I have met someone that I see in every thought and dream about the future. Her name is Elizabeth Cutlip. Elizabeth and I have a son together. He is now 2 years and 4 months old. Elizabeth and I have had a rocky road in our relationship. We have truly seen the best and worst of each other. Relationships are work. They take dedication, patience, and honesty. It is a lot more than just a four letter word that describes and emotion. Our relationship has been far from perfect. It has had many ups and down and heartbreaks. But, we decide to stay together and keep working on it after 6 years. If there is anything that I would call Love, that would be it.
Each one of us has made many mistakes. We are human, we are stupid. We push other people to their limits and expect them not to over react. We hurt people intentionally sometimes for personal gain, and destroy homes and relationships for selfish choices. It is the beauty of free will that causes this. We can not change every human being, we can only hope to be better ones for ourselves and our family and friends.
