Love: Beyond Feelings

ove. No one on earth would say that they aren't interested in love. Somehow or somewhere in their lives, they've fallen in love. It is in our nature to love and to put our love into something or someone... let it be an idea, a principle, an activity or a person... or anything else that could be the center of our attention and desire.

Still love is not what everyone thinks it is. I know what it feels to be madly in love and I also know the pain of an unfulfilled love. But that doesn't mean anything. Because love, like I said before, is not just a feeling.

Love, nowadays, has been tainted by human passion and ideas. Love is patient but we want to rush it because we crave for that blissful feeling. Love is prompt and proper but we can't wait to have a relationship because we can't take the social pressure of being single. Love is pure but we mix it with lust and ungodly passions. Love is simple but we complicate it with excuses and our personal versions of it. Love is powerful and life-changing but we make it appear weak because of the sad endings we give it. Love is as clear as the skies but it appears perplexing because we confuse it with infatuation. Love is challenging but we refuse to step up and so it emerges as a simple game of win-loss-draw. We say the three words of love and want to hear them in return, but the question is, how far are you willing to go for it?

Love is not what you think it is or what I think it is. It has its own definition and has its own Pioneer. So if you want to know about real love, ask the One who started it and He will give you the real meaning of love. To be precise, He is the definition of love. No day could have been better than the day I finally understood what love truly is.

God is the answer to all our questions. He alone knows what love is and if not for Him, we would have no idea of what it truly is.
