On True Love
What is it really?
There is a common popular idea about true love that is completely false.
It is believing that it is rare and, therefore, a big deal, a huge decision, an earth shattering event.
The truth of the matter is that true willful love is practiced millions of times a day by ordinary people everywhere.
It is an act of love to go to work, to feed a child, to smile, to do a little more than expected.
Kindness is simply love in the little things.
Patience is simply describing the endurance true loving requires.
Imaginative romantic love, filled with flowers and perfume, is to true love what a painting is to the object the painting attempts to represent. It’s nice, but incomplete, lacking substance.
Don’t miss experiencing true love today because you are expecting it to show up in the popular preconceived Hallmark way. Find it through gentle words, smiles, and grace instead.
Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth.
