True Love hurts

Before my college graudation, we went to our school's strawberry farm and there we had our retreat - since our school is one of those catholic schools.

I was emotionally broken at that time and I was trying my hardest not to show it to my friends, so I was having fun and all but deep down, I know I am not. 

It was hard to pretend being the usual happy-go-luck me but I sure tried my best for them and for me. 

It was at lunch a song was played that hit me through my heart which was like my heart was the one singing it with so much emotion to a point I was in tears yet with a sad and pained yet beautiful smile plastered on my face. 

The title of the song played was 'Baby, I love you' by Tiffany Alvon. 

Every lyrics dig deep through my aching heart and made me realize how much I love him.

But as our retreat almost came to an end, our speaker said this: "how can you say you truly love someone if it does not hurt? True love hurts because you knew that you are truly loving for the pain is real. It may not be physically but it is both emotional and spiritual. True love hurts because you knew you are not to expect from it but only hope, it hurts because you want for them to be always happy even if you are not the cause. True love hurts because your love for that person is genuine and real. True love hurts in a way, you'd sacrifice anything, everything or even yourself for their happiness and well-being. True love hurts for it is unconditional."
