Our Gist on Love

Our Gist on Love

A little insight into our Gist on Love. Falling in love doesn’t happen once, or twice, but many times. Young love is beautiful, innocent, and exciting! But let’s be honest and realistic, there’s a time when it reaches its stage of being alive. It’s all part of growing up! And we think we know it all by then, how surprisingly wrong we are! You might think at later stages in your life and reminiscence whether that was love, yes it was! It was more of an introduction of things to come.

As we grow older, we meet and feel all types of love, a crush, an infatuation, desire, you name it, it’s all there. This stage can be life-changing too. It opens your eyes to the wonders and the disappointments that come with it. You get hurt, sometimes at breaking point, you make mistakes, sometimes hurting others’ feelings, and you experience the pain of deceit, and betrayal, which can all bear scars and unconsciously drive you to build up walls, but you get stronger and grow braver, time is a healer. Being cautious becomes second nature, guarding your heart, but also makes you more considerate, and compassionate. You learn the importance of life choices and the consequences, you learn to spot mistakes and mishaps, and your sixth senses are piqued. You can conclude exactly what you want and what you don’t want, what you need and don’t need.

Then finally, with the sense of never finding that soulmate, or accepting the fact that it may be non-existent, resonating to accepting where we are at this point of our life, and that we are complete no matter what, but there is, deep down, the hope that your soulmate does exist. Keep your hope ajar, for like a breath of fresh air, they might unexpectedly drift into your life, awakening the yearning for someone close to you, the excitement, the adventures, the flirting, someone to grow old together, holding hands just feels so fulfilling, the unexpected someone, that gets you, the person that manages to break down your walls and do it so artistically, considerably and kindly that you don’t even realize it! They make you feel complete and ready to face the world together, you derive strength from each other, and acceptance of each other’s quirkiness, habits, shortcomings, and past misdeeds, it may be hard but its all worth it, the loneliness, the despair, all are but a fading memory. You feel excited and alive again and the daunting and lonely future seems to not matter anymore.

You don’t need another human to feel complete, but in reality, let’s be honest, loneliness can have a huge impact on your well-being, so why not give it a try, it’s never too late, anything is possible, and happy endings do happen! 💘
