A Broken Love!

One of the topics I like talking about is the different interpretations we have about love. That perception start developing from a very young age. Then with life experiences, it changes and evolves.

For me personally, love used to be conditional. I have to prove myself and work really hard to get it and earn it.

Then when you cross situations, you realize this meaning doesn’t work anymore. Why? Because then you become a puppet and people pleaser. You find yourself obeying, pleasing and doing everything you could to earn that conditional love.

Then you find people step on you, control you, shape you to meet their expectations and want to own you is if you are their personal property.

It is interesting but painful when you relate your deep thoughts and beliefs with the current conditions and circumstances happening in your life.

So now what? After reflection and mental and emotional processing, you arrive your own truth about love. What is love to you? Is it something to work hard for or is it something authentic, deep and genuine? If your perception of love today breaks your heart, what other ideas of love you may think of?
