Love don't cost a thing
Helo friends, welcome again to my blog!
Since we are in the season of love, well, let's talk about love as we celebrate!!!
“Staying up all night for midnight call.” I laugh remembering this...
When midnight call was interesting, I was one of those who did it to my best. I had a lover then and I was in secondary school. We started this love story that kept on being interesting as it progresses. I would stay up all night just to say nasty things to her.
The midnight call starts exactly at 12:00 am, and I start my call from that 12am-4am, that's 4 hours on a call but tell me that time to read my books, I would doze off. It was so crazy that I wondered if I was the one who did it.
Teenage love was so intoxicating and that experience was new so when it started, I could do anything to make sure my lover was cool. She would always wait for this call so if I miss calling her, then I will have to answer for it the next day.
Well, it was worth it because that was the only moment we both had to express our love fpr each other. She made every moment count and unforgettable. I would never forget in a hurry her gentle words of affirmation as the sank down through my heart each night. She was a sweet soul so yes, it was worth it.
Hmm, love is one of those simple words we say but has a deep meaning. Love for me me means choosing someone without feelings but with actions. It is more that saying “oh I care about you”, it is more than butterflies in the stomach and more than attraction.
“Love bears all things, hope all things, believes all things, endures all things, Love never ends...”
Love is care, commitment, respect, growth, sacrifice, and endurance, it's all these and more
Yes, I still believe in love. Although everyone has their own meaning of love and how they view it. Love is not a difficult thing to give, if you have it in you, you can easily give it out. Building your love foundation on Christ our saviour, gives you the right knowledge on how to love, who to love and when to keep loving.
We've heard various stories of how a lover killed their partner, different stories flying up down or someone denying their lover outside. All these act does not mean there is no love, it simply means they lack understanding of love and how it should be. If you are an egocentric person, you shouldn't bring that attitude up with someone you claim to love.
Love is calm not loud, love is peace not war, love is accommodating not rejection. When we have a better understanding on the word love, relationships would be built well and last even forever.
Ah, no it's not possible. If you love someone genuinely, you must be drawn to doing special things for them. It is not something you are being forced to do but something that flows within you.
Each time you remember the person you love, you think of a surprise package for them, it is natural. You can decide to gift them, plan surprise party, or even surprise outing.
There is no way love exists without doings, or giving. They work hand-in-hand to complete love.
Doing something for love is choosing to do it, even if it's hard you don't feel forced. It flows from care and not fear, doing it feels connected with your partner.
Example; you apologize because you value the relationship and embrace peace, not because you're scared of losing the person.
Doing something out of obligation is having that mindset of the consequences attached to not doing a particular thing. It is feeling pressure or duty, like a daily role you must play
Example; always being the one to fix conflict because someone has to do it, not because it feels balanced.
When it's love, you hear “I want to”, when it's obligation, you hear “I have to”. In healthy relationships, responsibilities are shared. When one person alone us always adjusting, always swallowing pride, it gradually turns from love to obligation.
