Tola

January 18, 2014 by Monique Ameyo in Love Is

tolaName: TolaHometown: Snellville, Georgia and Ibadan, NigeriaAge: 24Age You First Fell in Love: 21Love Is: The ability to be out of yourself and value someone else as important. It is what allows you to sacrifice your time and life resources, everything that compromises you for another. It can be tested but it is hard to kill completely. Being African made me stifle love at first and made it hard for me to express it, but it is also what I think makes me able to embrace love in its fullness. Hard to explain beyond that.
