Love

Love is more than a physical attraction
Love takes more than a week to manifest
Love is not lost in a day
I don't know much about love, but I do know that those 3 day long "relationships" kids have today, are not for the sake of love...
So what is the point to them?
Why is having a boyfriend or girlfriend one of the major things on the minds of kids today?
I don't know the answer to this. I'm sure there are many different factors. I do know that if more kids spent their high school career focusing on their education and improving themselves, we'd have fewer broken hearts, and less drama.  We'd probably have fewer suicides and teen pregnancies too.  But I suppose that's not going to happen

If you're a kid reading this, think about it. What do you gain from putting all your time into the week long "relationships" that you have every other week? Isn't there any other way you could be spending your time?

I personally think a relationship should be about more than a physical attraction.  It should be about a connection.  It should be about shared views of the world, and shared life goals.  It should be thought about and considered before it's jumped into.
And love shouldn't be a word that's constantly thrown around.

But I guess that's just me...

Thanks for reading
