On the other spectrum are those who say falling in love or experiencing that feeling of it is a choice. What say you about love?
Is love truly blind; is it possible for love to be unconditional; does true love really last forever? Regardless of how we perceive or interpret love, one clear conclusion is that all human beings are susceptible to love. And love has the power to humanize and unite.

BONUS LOVE QUOTE
“You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She’s not perfect—you aren’t either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break—her heart. So don’t hurt her, don’t change her, don’t analyze and don’t expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she’s not there.” – Bob Marley
