Relationships.

For most individuals, they want to one day have that ideal relationship. That one person they can call their other half, perhaps even their better half.

Relationships go through cycles.

The beginning is filled with constant smiles, butterflies, hand holding, and unconditional affection.

Once you get comfortable around one another, most relationships begin to settle into their own niche.

What people fail to realize is that relationships aren't as easy as they are cracked up to be. They take an honest and equal effort on both parts for full functionality. People start slacking with the affection, the kind words often go unheard for a longer period of time than they should.. and the relationship begins to unravel.

Love is a living thing. Just like any living thing it has its essential needs.. love, respect, and most importantly attention. Without these 3 things, relationships become weak and eventually perish.

What I've learned throughout the years is that love is not for the selfish. Although they are often times granted the rare opportunity that many strive for in their lifetime, it's that much better if it's a mutual act.

Each relationship is different, but then one you should value the most, is your own.

Love it, respect it, and most importantly embrace it, for everything that it is and will ever be.
