Love doesn't cost a thing

How are you all my friends? I hope you are all doing well and healthy. I am participating in a great competition. The competition topic seemed quite different to me. So I thought, let's discuss the topic a little.

Does love really have a price? Or is it free? When I listen to Jennifer Lopez's song, it seems that love is absolutely expensive, but is it true in real life? I was a little confused at first when I saw the title. However, when I think about it, I understand that love is actually a strange thing. It will make you do things that you would not do in a healthy brain.

Today, on the occasion of this competition, I will share some random experiences from my life.

The craziest thing I've ever done

People do so many things when they are in love! My incident was not very big, but it was very big for me. At that time, my pocket was not very good, my student life. It was the birthday of my beloved person. I insisted on giving him a gift with my own savings.

I don't know if you will believe it or not, but I didn't have lunch for a month straight. I would walk home after saving my tiffin money and rickshaw fare. My stomach was burning in the sun, and my stomach was growling with hunger, but I was stubborn. When I bought him a watch with the money I had saved at the end of the month, I felt like I had conquered the world. The pain of that month seemed to disappear with a smile on his face. Can money buy that moment? No, not at all.

What does "love" mean to me?

To me, love doesn't mean romantic dinners or expensive cars like in the movies. To be honest, love means trust. When you return devastated at the end of the day, that person who hands you a glass of water and says, "Don't worry, I'm here" is love. If you can find peace even by sitting quietly next to someone, if you can understand their state of mind even without speaking, that is true love.

Do I believe in love after all this?

When you see breakups, cheating, and selfishness all around you, sometimes it feels like there is no such thing as love. But still, I believe. Do you know why? Because people still do good to others without self-interest because of love. I have seen my old grandmother carefully wipe her glasses. Seeing these scenes, there is no way not to believe. Maybe the style has changed, but love has not disappeared.

Can love be found without doing anything special?

Of course it is! I think small things are more important than big surprise parties.

For example—

Gently holding their hand while crossing the street.

Letting them eat the last good piece of your food.

Sending a quick message, "Be careful."

Do you need a bank balance for these? No. It just takes heart. In my opinion, love is the small daily care, not a big one-day event.

Love vs. Obligation

This is where we make a mistake. There is a subtle difference between the two. Responsibility is what you are obligated to do. For example, office work or paying bills. There is no tension in her; there is a fear of "if you don't do it, there will be danger".

And love? Love is what you do from the heart. No one is telling you at gunpoint that you have to call or take care of him. Still, you do it because you want him to be well. Fulfilling your responsibilities makes you tired, but in the act of love, even if your body is tired, you have peace of mind.

Finally, I will say that love actually has no price tag. We may buy gifts with money, but the emotion behind that gift is priceless. So it can be said, Love really doesn't cost a thing.

Thank you all for reading my ramblings.

Love truly has no price tag and also it doesn't cost a thing. Love is kind and patient. Love is not something we are forced to do it is done willingly without grudge.
Wish you all the best
