If You Love Someone, Tell Them...Show Them!


What do you do with feelings of admiration you've had towards someone, but never shared? Why did you hold on to those feelings? Was it fair to the other person? Were you being fair to yourself? Well, I've been through it and watched a friend go through his dating phases while I sat on the side lines with feelings of, "that could be me." This went on for many years as we both went on living our separate lives, losing connection for a short while and finding each other again. One day it all came out in the open and to my surprise he felt the same way too, but our lives are so different now. Don't wait another minute if you are experiencing this. For me there is always a thought in the back of my mind wondering what would our lives be like today if we were just upfront and honest with each other in the beginning? If you love someone, tell them, show them, but never use it as a mechanism to control them. Love has no attachments, it's unconditional.

What Is True Love?


True Love isn't based on conditions, but is unconditional. Many people love based on personality desires. What I mean is, what a person does for them or how he/she makes them feel. This is all based on good and pleasant experiences. But what happens when all trials and challenges take place. Most people don't hang in there when the fire/heat is turned up. They live in a fairytale built on false concept of love based on their own selfish intentions. Personality desires have many ego tripping. They become attached to a person's status, title, possessions, good looks, sweet words, etc. and if the one chosen doesn't live up to the crazy concept in of how it should be...he/she, the chooser runs away to find a new experience. This is why so many relationships/marriages fail.

Love is centered around NO conditions, NO labels, NO title, etc. Those things aren't the essence of a person anyway. The beauty is getting to know someone outside of all the superstition of materialism and then those things will compliment. Love only works if the two become friends. Love is friendship on fire-and I mean passionate flames.

The One Who Loves the Most Has the Power!


There is a saying, "The one who loves the least has the most power!" That is so far from the truth. Love conquers all! Love is such a powerful force that it is long suffering. John 3:16 declares that the Most High loved us so much he gave his only begotten son. So we are alive on this earth today not because we did anything so great to deserve it, but by his love. Actually, the sacred scriptures declare that all have sinned and fallen short of the Glory of the Most High. But He looked past our faults and short comings and demonstrated love in spite of. It's the same for those who have children that disobey you; you don't stop loving them. You may discipline them, but through your love because you desire the best for them. Love helps to transform the life of someone who repeatedly does wrong and you never turn your back on them-not to say you won't show them tough love, but you are still there.
