“If it isn’t love, why do I feel this way why does (s)he stay on my mind?”

“what will be the topic for today?”
“love and war!”
First up, expectations….
“what do you expect in love?”
One kind gentlemen feels this way…
“Well i expect truth and honesty. i believe with those two there is nothing else that wont follow. truth will keep all in respect and honesty will keep those perceptions in line with truth”
Good answer … but, part two, “what do you give?”
He feels that…
“i give all of me whether thats emotions or advice or whatever it may be. i give it all”
Ok, I can dig that, but lets do some role reversing, “what about you, what do u expect in love?”
She says…
"I expect sacrifice and comfort
trust is earned so i never expect it because i dont trust people usually ...
when in love i expect you to be close to God, in the sense you are not even CLOSE to the other friends, ur the bestie ... hands down, no questions asked. if God took everything away from me, id pray he didnt take you type of friend"
He liked this ....
But, she offered more …
“love is an action word ... and, well, talk is cheap
im a simple girl that likes simple things
dont buy me things, i can do that myself
send me an "i love you" because thats what you were thinking, mail me a card that says "hi" because u know i get lonely, sacrifice your sleep because you know i need to hear you breathing ... be there”
In the end, its not about how many times you say it. Its not about how much you can conjure up some words. Its about what you do. What will you do for love? Will you sacrifice a bit of your happiness and comfort? God is love, right? HE gave it all! Now, Im not comparing man to God, but, I am comparing love to God. Stop throing it around …. Its deeper than the three words.

Love, one of my favorite subjects next to relationships. Love is an action word, it is not just an emotion. The essence of your being should lead your heart to love. Your heart cannot be trusted to lead itself...your heart is fickled. But, your essence, your core, the total you know love.
"On the eve of eternity I will know you from the love that exudes from your richly fragrant pores with a scent detectable from the depths of my being....because we share love"
Love is like the tears you have spoken of. Sometimes there are no words profound enough to speak so that one can understand the depth of Love. Actions are sometimes misunderstood or missed. Sometimes a tear is the compression of an unmeasureable amount of love that can touch you in the most guarded portion of your core, rendering you defenseless. Love is so powerful!
