Love: a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person.
I think the word Love gets thrown around too easily. And it is said more often these days without real, true meaning behind it. And as well as that, actions speak louder than words. You can say you love someone but you have to really mean it for to be more than just words.
What love means to me:
To be there for him through thick or thin. To not question what will I get out of this. But to do it because you only want the best for him.
Passion, that powerful, compelling emotion you feel when you are with him.
Trust, when you trust him with the safekeeping of your heart. And you don't worry about getting hurt.
When I heard the song Parachute by Train, my first thought was THAT is true love. Real love. To say you are willing to be someones parachute. That you will always be there for them. And never let them fall. Especially when life becomes a challenge. Which without a doubt it will at some point. To know that you have that one person there for you no matter what happens is an amazing feeling.
Rob,
I love you more than words can even express. You have been my parachute. And I am so thankful for that. You have been more to me than anyone ever has. Thank you for being my shoulder to cry on. Thank you for seeing the good in me, when no one else can. I want to be your everything. I want to be your parachute. I will NEVER let you fall. You will ALWAYS have me no matter what is going on in your life. "True love blooms eternal, whatever life's obstacles."
These are the beautiful lyrics to Parachute by Train:
(The bold lines are the ones that mean the most to me.)
I wanna take you with me
To life with no more yesterdays
We can start again awake and so excited
and change the way we always push
I'll open up and be your parachute
And I'll never let you down
So open up and be my human angel
And we'll only hit the ground running
And when the world gets sharp and tries to cut you down to size
And makes you feel like giving in
Oh, I will stay, I will rain, I will wash the words and pain away
And I will chase away the way we push
The way we pull
You're beautiful
And if it feels like we might drop
It will stop so don't look down
It wouldn't be the same without you
This life is too good to give up on
