Okay so you are made to believe growing up the fairy tales of finding Prince Charming or your lovely princess but is it all a bunch of hooey?? Boy meets girl, you fall in "love" and think that things are just grand and that you are going to spend the rest of your life with that person, but time goes on and you fight, break up and go your seperate ways. You meet someone else you fall in "love" and the cycle starts all over again. The Bible says: 4 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud 5 or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. 6 It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. 7 Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. 1 Corinthians 13 4-7 But is this how we truly treat the ones that we care about the ones that we profess to "love"? If love is not jealous then why do we act that way? And how do you show love the way you are suppose to if the one that claims to "love" you back lies, cheats, or treats you poorly? One should not rely on the other. You should still show the person that you love them regardless of the way they treat you; however who wants to be the rug underneath someone elses' feet?? So you put all this effort in a person that claims that they love you and then they treat you like crap you break up and before you know it they are off "loving" someone else before you have even had a chance to return their things. So is there really such a thing as love??? Are people capable of loving someone other than themselves and if they do actually love someone can you just turn that love off for that person and turn it on for another person?? Whatever happened to patience? Kindness? Honesty? Trust? Im beginning to think, that the only person a person loves is themselves and when the person they are with is of no benefit to them, they move on to love someone else. What are your thoughts? |
