Why Love is Elusive

Love. The ever fading rose in the room. It can be said that one finds love. This is why so many are looking for it. Some find it, some do not. But there isn’t a soul on the planet that hasn’t looked…

So where is it?

This question is at the heart of why love is so elusive. But it’s an easy question to answer. Love is the most elusive when we are not ready for it. When we are too heartbroken, too angry, or too busy for it, love does not find us. It is truer to say that we have not found it.

I ought to let you know that what I am discussing in this text is love in the form of romantic affection. What I am not talking about is the love you feel for your parents, children, your dog, or your siblings, not even for your turtle, Hank. Not at all. I am discussing the most elusive of loves. That is the love found between a man and a woman who are fond of each other’s affection.

It is within these pages that I will discuss the importance of love, the need for love, where love comes from, and what is truly behind it. That said, it is no small feat to conquer such a subject with due justice and I cannot say that I have done so properly in the pages within. What can be said is that someone gave it a shot when others were too intimidated by the subject matter to breach the conversation.

Is there love in these pages? Yes. Is there love for you in these pages? No. I write without any being in mind but the relationships I draw on to make evidence of. However, I hope that you find the meaning behind the love that you give, and the answer to one question and one question only which is at the heart of why this book was even written:

Love = ?
