True Love never
ends
·
we’ve all
observed it: two people who were once ‘in love’ now hate each other.
·
it can happen
instantly. it happens when u.s.a.
romantic/storybook ‘love’ comes with an array of expectations.
·
people should
simply be honest, and say “i love you, as long as you
_____________________.” (fill in the
blank)

…but that isn’t
really Love, is it. i see it as a form
of possession or ownership:
“i love you.
you’re mine. now do what i want you to do.”
it sounds so love-ly… in song, on valentines
day cards, and at wedding ceremonies, doesn’t it? it sounds love-ly... right up until it ends.
…but True Love is different. it is Unconditional. it is allowing. it is unending. it wants the person who is loved to have the best life that they can have, irregardless of how we feel about it.
True Love is more like mother-child love, or friendship love. it understands. it doesn’t expect. it doesn’t coerce. it isn’t out for its own gratification, but rather, for the other.
a friendship doesn’t need a ‘vow’ or a ceremony or a contract or an exchange of overpriced bling.

Love doesn’t ‘need’ anything.
