Can I Love You... But Not Like You?

I’ve always been perplexed by the concept that (agape) love is a feeling… how could it ever endure when feelings are so fickle? We choose to, or not to love a person. The real challenge is being conscious of who you choose to love based on their character and ability to love others. The intimate exchange (friend, family, partner) shouldn’t be based on if it feels good all the time, but if they are capable of agape love. It’s okay to “globally” love without inviting intolerance and judgement into your circle… some people don’t belong there.

PLAY REEL

Agape is patient and kind, it does not envy what others have or chase possessions nor does it feel the need to constantly show & tell; it is not conceited and self-absorbed. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not get caught up in drama but celebrates seeking and understanding truth. It always protects - with the intent of assuming best intentions, always trusts that this too shall pass, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. 🌷
