Love Essay: To Love And To Be Loved

To Love And To Be Loved

The reality of true love is a controversial matter universal to the entirety of the world. True love is not black and white, it can be far more complicated than meets the eye. Regardless, love is a beautiful and warm emotion, and no matter what language you speak or what religion you practice everybody is capable of loving and being loved. True love is unconditional, forgiving, and understanding (Morgan). A love that is true is a feeling that conquers all; true love is without a doubt an inevitable part of life, and is displayed in many of the true love poems including “Somewhere I Have Never Travelled,” “A Red Red Rose” and “I Am Offering This Poem.”
