Love 

If you ask different people at different times in their lives what love is you'll get different answers each time because no one really knows what the full picture of love is.

A teenager after a breakup might say that love is pain, rejection, or putting yourself out on a limb and then falling.

An adult who is just recently married would say that it is a wonderful thing that he wouldn't trade for anything in the world

An older married couple might say that it is fulfillment and worth everything.

As for me, I say it is all these things, but that above all it is hard. No one really tells you this because you don't yet know the best parts or you already know both sides, but love is the most difficult thing a human can ever face. It can destroy us, it can heal us, it can bring us comfort or it can make our lives a living nightmare but its always worth it. Its always better to love even if you fail. perhaps it is insanity
