Hope

Since a long time I wanted to start with this blog.
I wanted to write about how difficult it is to find love nowadays, in a world where true love seems to exist only in fairy tales.
I'll surely tell you about my stories over the time.
But let's start with some hope.
Let's start with a story of true love. True love nowadays.
Today is the wedding day of two dear friends of mine.
So far, nothing special, you would say...
 But, how often does it happens that two young people fall in love, and that this love grows over the years, never ending since then? 
And how often does it happen that two people that are together since high school are able to realize themselves, to be happy together without pretending anything from the other?
I know them since 10 years now, almost as long as they are a couple.. And while I felt in love, got my heart boken and tried again and again to find the one, they were always there, stable as a rock. 
I have seen how they grew up together, becoming the beautiful people they are now.
They are like a proof that true love still exists. The kind of love you don't have to hunt, to run behind, but that is just there.
Of course, I imagine that they had bad moments too from time to time. But they believed in each other, and most of all, they always wanted each other.
I think that love is not only a feeling, but also something that two people have to nourish.
Gabry and Nick have found their recipe and I'm sure they will be happy together as they were until now, if not even more.
I wish them all the best and I thank them to have given me the hope that one day I'll find a love as true as theirs.

  1. Looking for love...

    Dear Stefanie, very nice story!

    I feel quite the same as you about the true love. Walking through the city nowadays, it is difficult to find couples who seem to be in real love. There are not many of them I think. Our world has changed so much for the last hundred years. Our consumer society is distracting us human beings from our real values as e.g. respect of the nature or faithful contact with our fellowers. Money and the career have become more important than the own family!
    Once, I've read about three things which are necessary that real love can develop:
    -understanding
    -admiration
    -something in common to grow together

    When thinking about my own experiences, I guess there are two things which can hinder somebody to feel in real love: On the one hand, it is important to solve you from old emotions. On the other hand, it is important to love and accept yourself as you are, without loving ourself, we can not love somebody else.

    Please check one of my favorite tracks:

  2. Hi Sam!

    I totally agree with you saying that we have first to love ourselves before we are able to truly love someone else!

    Thx for the track, it was new to me!

  3. Hey Stef!

    Yes, I think this is one of our most challenging thing nowadays, to love and accept ourselves, on the physical and emotional level.
