Love has existed since the creation of this small world we live on. Since the very beginning of life there has been love. But, Humans were truly the ones who personified love. Our capability to love a partner for more than just their physical capabilities placed us at the head of the leaderboards when it came to love. No matter what, a man or woman could love their partner for [b]who[/b] they are rather than [b]what[/b] they look like or their genes. If their love was true enough, a couple would be capable to surpass anything including mental diseases. There are hundreds, possibly thousands, of couples out there who have watched as one of the partners involved in the realtionship fall deeper and deeper into the pit of mental disease.

A man can watch his wife of twenty years suffer from dementia and still stay with her. While some people would leave the moment they realized that their partner wasn't perfect, there are others out there who will stay with them no matter what. I once heard a story of a woman who had come back from war and was suffering from PTSD. One night, it was particularly bad and she was alone in her house. She heard the door open and close downstairs and rushed to get her gun from her night stand. She waited for the intruder to enter and, when he flipped on a light, she shot him right in the chest. The intruder turned out to be her husband coming home from a late night of work. He was in surgery for three hours before he came back out. It was a success but his wife was killing herself from grief.

He told her that she wasn't to blame, that it wasn't her fault, and that he would stay with her no matter what. The husband stayed true to his word and stayed with his Wife. Now, put yourself in the exact same position as the husband. If your wife shot you because of PTSD would you really stay with her? Would you be willing to work with her to ease the guilt from shooting you and help her overcome her PTSD? Half of you might say yes, half might say no. The point is, those half who say yes show that humans truly are the best at love. We might make wars like they're candies but they don't overshadow all the love we are capable of. Those soldiers who fight terrorist organizations looking to destroy our worlds do it not just because they believe the terrorist evil but also because of their loved ones back at home.

The soldiers fight for a better world for their family and friends. I never quite understood why people were always disgusted by war. From my view, war wasn't necessary but the fact that our soldiers were willing to go out of their way to protect us and our world as it is shows the depth of their love for loved ones. Yet, there are those who believe that humans can only love as much as they hate. I call that true for you can hate somebody enough to committ murder but you can love somebody enough to die for them. Most people would call me crazy for having even written this but I don't give a fuck. I'm seventeen, never had a partner, and yet I feel as if this is the truth behind the human capability to love.
