what is love you ask me.

honestly i don’t really know. 

i think i have an idea of what it means though. 

or at least I hope I do. 

so let me tell you my idea of love.

love is unconditional.

it’s sticking with someone no matter what. no matter what they’ve done or who they’ve become. 

love is seeing past a persons flaws and caring for them anyway.

love is when you know you would die for a person. 

love hurts when someone walks out of your life.

love cuts like a blade when you know you’ve hurt someone you care for. 

love is always honest...even when it hurts to be. 

love knows what is best for you.

love stands by a person in their darkest hour. 

love is in your actions.

love is in the way you think. 

love never gives up. 

love cares for others than for self.

love doesn’t want what it doesn’t have. 

love doesn’t focus on itself. 

love isn’t forceful. 

love doesn’t take note of every wrong someone does. 

love takes pleasure in truth. 

love puts up with anything and everything. 

love trusts God always. 

love always always looks for the best in a person. 

love never looks back. 

love keeps going infinitely. 

love NEVER dies. 

God is the epitome of love.

love is who He is. 

what greater love do we have than Him who would send His most precious son into a world as an infant to live and die for us? 

in the Bible it says “go after a life of love as if your depended on it. because it does.”

we depend on love.

thrive on love. 

breathe and drink in love. 

we all desire to love and be loved. 

this is what love is to me. this is deep love. this is passionate love. this is what i hope i show to people everyday. this is what i hope is seen as my creator flows out of me. this is what i live for and will die for. i don’t know if i will ever truly know what love is...but i hope i’m pretty close. my heart cry is to be just a fraction of what Jesus was to this world and if i’ve done that....then I know my life will have not been in vain.

Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 1 Corinthians 13: 4-7
