what is the meaning of true love?

in honor of valentine's day, i've decided to take on this age-old question. kind of ironic, seeing as i've never been in love before. crushing on someone, maybe. but that's a whole different story.

disney provides us with ample examples of true love, from cinderella's prince searching the kingdom for her, a kiss from prince charming waking up snow white from death, and recently, princess ana sacrificing herself to save her sister elsa. but as everyone knows, love is not a fairy tale.

i think the best example of true love can be shown through families: parents make enormous sacrifices, move across the globe, and even risk their lives so that their children can have a better future. true love is someone who will always put your needs above their own. true love is someone who will do everything for you while getting nothing in return. true love is someone who loves you just as much in your absolute worst as in your absolute best.

true love is out there (we think!) maybe not in your school or neighborhood or state, but keep searching and one day you might just find someone who truly loves you.
