I saw this quote recently, and I thought that it deserved to be heard:
“The truth is that the more intimately you know someone, the more clearly you’ll see their flaws. That’s just the way it is. This is why marriages fail, why children are abandoned, why friendships don’t last. You might think you love someone until you see the way they act when they’re out of money or under pressure or hungry, for goodness’ sake. Love is something different. Love is choosing to serve someone and be with someone in spite of their filthy heart. Love is patient and kind, love is deliberate. Love is hard. Love is pain and sacrifice, it’s seeing the darkness in another person and defying the impulse to jump ship.”
– The Great Kamryn
I couldn’t have said it better myself.
So I won’t!
Love. Is. A. Choice.
Choose Wisely! And remember that every day there is another opportunity to Play It By Ear!
It is true that loving someone can be hard at times, but it is so worth it! Of course, it is important who we choose to spend the rest of our life with, that is a choice that will follow us the rest of our life! But to love our children and those around us, making wise decisions on how we show that love, and being true and faithful is the key to a happy life.
Thanks Val. So true.
