What is the meaning of Love?
Have you ever just thought about what the meaning of love to you is? If you really think about it you might realize that there are many different meanings for that four-letter word. Everyone is going to have their own opinion of what love is. For me it is very hard to describe what love means. I know that it means that you care for them, you would do anything for them, and that they are very special. I believe that there are two different types of love. One is the kind that we have for family and friends. This is the unconditional love that will always be there. The other kind is when you love someone such as your boyfriend or girlfriend. This kind of love has another part which is the fact that you are physically attracted to that person. Just think about that small word with a big meaning. What's your definition of LOVE?
Relationships
Who ever thinks that having any sort of relationship is easy is crazy. Through my 21 years of being on this earth and having many different kinds of relationships, I've learned that it takes much effort to keep them on track. There are the parts of the relationship that people don't even think about such as honesty, trust, communication, and connecting with that person, that are vital. The one relationship that I've learned that takes the most time and effort is the dating or married relationship. I now understand what my dad was saying when he said stay away from boys when I was younger. They are so difficult. But having that someone special is well worth it and you must learn to give and take to make the relationship last. Good communication is the key in maintaining any good relationship with someone and they must be able to understand you from many different ways.
Procrastination
I am one of the worst to put things off until the last minute. I always tell myself that I'm not going to wait, that I will get it done. Once again this semester, I have forgotten many times to write in my blog. Maybe it's more that I'm just so busy I don't have a lot of free time to write. So here I am, with 4 days left in the semester trying to get caught up in writing in my blog. Time seems to just fly by. It seems like only last week we were just starting the spring semester and now it's May. Procrastination is a very bad habit that I hope eventually to overcome. I know that I will get all my work done, it's just that now I'm thinking to myself "Why did I wait so long to get things done!"

Interpersonal Trust
I've never quite understood how two people can have a relationship without trust. I have found it very hard to trust people sometimes, and I just don't understand why this era trust is so overlooked. What I've come to realize is that people in my generation are lending toward the not so traditional ways of life. Divorce, cohabitation, and cheating or affairs have almost become norms in our society. Everyone is doing it so it's ok right? If you cannot trust someone, then you can never truly be happy with that person and believe everything they say. Trust is one of the major building blocks in any relationship, and without it, the relationship may not survive the obstacles of life.
Honesty
Honesty is something that is very important to me. In relationships, you must be able to be honest with the other person in order for the relationship to be true. All that I ask for in a relationship with someone, whether it's my mom, dad, best friend, or boyfriend, is honesty because this also helps to build trust with that other peson. Honesty will get you far in life. You will never be suspected as a fraud or liar if you are true to yourself as well as others.
