Proof of Love
Can you prove to someone that you love them? Is what one person feels not necessarily what the other person feels? How can I prove to you that I love you? If that question is posed to you, how would you answer? What I always thought: love is taking care of someone and being intimate with someone. What I have learned: love is a feeling. Love is a feeling that overtakes your daily life. Loving someone means that you don't focus on yourself but on your life with that person. Thoughts of that person can consume your every minute, needing to take care of the person, needing to hug that person, needing to see that person, needing to be there for that person, kissing that person, holding hands with that person, making love to that person, nurturing that person, feeling nurtured and taken care of by that person. What I thought about love and what I have learned about love are a bit the same but very different. What I was taught about love was actually a very simplistic view of love. The definition I knew of love was more a dictionary explanation of love. What I have learned about love is all consuming. So how do you prove to someone that you love them? When seeing a person you feel complete, (yes the sappy line from the movie), is that love? How do you convey that to a person? There was a movie, Proof of Life, seems a bit obvious doesn't it? Proof of Life seems easy but Proof of Love isn't. If I was to cook dinner would that prove that I love you? How can someone prove they love me? Hold me. Kiss me. Talk to me. Hold my hand. Lay in bed with me. Smile at me. Stay with me. Call me to say hello. Most of all, the best way to prove to me that you love me - make a commitment to me for the rest of my life, understand that I am not perfect but that I will try to not let all my inperfections show all the time. Is that proof of love reasonable?
