Let Love Be The Reason... Pt 2



LOVE IS KIND
Kind means to be friendly, helpful, well-meaning, generous, benevolent, considerate and warm. Kindness (the noun for kind) is not given merely because it is received. It is independent and can thrive without reciprocity.

So when we say Love is kind, we mean that love is friendly, helpful, well-meaning, generous, benevolent, considerate and warm. Love is understanding, and will never allow itself to stop no matter how pained it is by the lack of reciprocity.

If love is truly the reason, then love must be kind. Give kindness, even when you have a good reason not to. This is a quality that love cannot thrive without. Start with the little things...


Blessings and more, to you and yours.

Let Love Be The Reason... Pt 1



LOVE IS PATIENT

Patient, derivable from the word PATIENCE (derivable because patient means a few other things) means "the ability to endure delay, trouble, pain or hardship in a calm and contained way. The courage to tolerate, forbear and persevere"

Thus, when we say "Love is Patient", we mean that love has "the ability to endure delay, trouble, pain or hardship in a calm and contained way. It also has the courage to tolerate, forbear and persevere"

If love is the reason, then love must be patient. This truth is cardinal. Love never breaks under pressure. We must learn how to love and allow ourselves to be loved...

Blessings and more, to you and yours.
