Love?

Love?

Desmond Benjamin, Editor//Dakota Meekins

What is love? Is love an actual thing? Is love something you can give someone? Love? Can love come from your heart? Can love come from the mind? People ask, do I love? I say I don’t know. Do you think about this person day and night? Can you feel or sense when this person isn’t feeling right? That’s what love is to me. Love is a deep affection for someone or something. I mean, can you love something before you love yourself? Many people make this mistake and love someone before themselves. Love comes in multiple ways. Some mayshow love by touch and feel, and then you have the thing people call tough love (like when your coach or parent yells at you). Tough love is a love that has a weird concept. It’s like how your parents say “This will hurt me more than it will hurt you!” Tough love is also just another version of love. It may come in many different forms but also it may come from many different people. It may come from your friends, your teachers, or even family. It means that they love you but they don’t show it like love is normally shown. Who knows maybe even you show tough love sometimes. You may not even show love.
