I want to talk about love today. I'm not going to go into this sappy lovestruck teenage babble about some cute boy who I am totally in love with after just meeting. No, this is about the love we feel and see around us.

When I'm with friends or family or even people I just sort of know but still care about I feel this love for them. They each have their own type of love and they each mean something different to me, but they are all still loved.

My friends have a love that I tend to call the "chose family" love. That's because they are people I've chosen to be important to me. They are put i that special place by me and they do become like a second family. My friends are amazing and I would never want to change what they mean to me. Being a friend to someone is also important to me, because I know how important having a friend who you know cares is.

My family has the "family love." Sometimes I may hate them with a passion and wish I was never a part of my family, but then I realize that my family is kind of awesome. Now, don't get me wrong I absolutely love my family, but they can be kind of crazy sometimes. I may not have been able to pick my family, but I sure was blessed with a pretty amazing one and that's all I could ask for.

Now those people that I just sort of know but still care about are a special group. They are people who I don't count as friends but they are more than acquaintances. These are people that I love and care about and they may not feel the same, but that's okay. I tend to be someone who throws herself into a relationship and I  realize that not a lot of people are like that. I also tend to get attached very quickly and start caring about people way too soon.

There is another love that I want to note. And that's the love that we see all around us. Parents with their kids, siblings, couples. If you've ever been somewhere like an airport then you've seen this love. The love between these two strangers you may never know, but it is so real ad tangible. A love that almost everyone can relate to at some point.

Being in love is beautiful. It's also something that happens every day. So be careful with your, but let yourself love other unconditionally because you ever know when love might find you. We always seem to have some sort of love in our lives, so never forget that there will always be someone, somewhere that loves you. Even if it doesn't feel like at that moment.

Love,
Natalie
