Love is a very complicated thing. There are different factors that are connected when we say the word love. What is Love? Love is a feeling that only a feeling could understand. Is it an act of the will or an act of the heart?
In loving, you need to consider your heart and your mind. You need to balance these two things in order to love someone.
Love as an act of the heart. When we are in front of the person we are in love with, we always feel the different or the unusual beating of our heart. We can say that we are in love with that person. The heart, in a way helps us in distinguishing love. But, often times listening to our heart can give you heartaches and sufferings. I always hear people in love that “This is what my heart tells me to do, so I will do this for him”. The heart only symbolizes the word love. It does not necessarily mean it is the heart, which decides what it is right or wrong. If you will always follow your heart, it will come to a point that you will be foolish in love. You will do what your heart feels. You will do everything for your loved one even if it is not good already.
Love as act of the will. The will or the mind is the one acting in loving. It is our will to choose the person we want to love. Take for example when your parents do not want your girlfriend/boyfriend. It is for the reason that they do not want her/him because of her/his physical appearance. You will not say that I will choose her because I just feel to love her. Instead, it is your will to choose her despite what your parents want. But it is not always good to listen to your mind always. It will sometimes, make you do thing that at some point in time make you regret.
Loving someone is not easy. You need to accept the good and bad side of the person. In accepting the person, it is your heart and your will that is acting on it. Balancing your heart and your mind is very important so that you will have a good relationship with the person. The problem that most people in love faced is how to balance their heart and mind.
Always remember that loving is a good feeling. It can make you happy and contented.
