+ is that love eh? +
Nowadays it seems there are a good many e-mails floating around tryin to explain what's this crazy little thing called love. Especially with Valentine's Day (aka Judgement Day, cos ultimately we're judged by what happens on that one day, disregarding the acts of the rest of the year) just around the corner. With so many differing views, each bugger downright convinced that he/she knows whats good for you, i felt inclined to ask the big man upstairs. His answer was pretty direct. 4 Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, 5 does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, 6 does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails;1 Corinthians 13: 4-8
Hell, it ain't just direct. Its friggin hard. Romantic, platonic or paternal, in the end it boils down to these points. And married couples can be together for a decade without puttin a tick to half of these. (Note: "Believes all things" taken in context refers to truth, cos hey, how often do we refuse to believe the truth? we're jus like that i guess) Still, an ideal loses its meaning if the guys who hear it merely dismiss it as impossible. Tough? hell yeah... impossible? maybe....... but very much still worth fightin for. As for the inevitable Valentine's Day... everyone's gonna be judging everyone else... again ...tab unhealthy. save yourself the trouble n don't do unto others for a change this year yah? Cheers all! Good luck with your comin trials! *raises wine glass* P.S. did anyone notice the acronym for Valentine's Day is VD ???
