What’s Love Got to Do with It? Knowing what love is sets the tone for living within its powerful beauty. Loving thy neighbor as thyself becomes an actionable expression of being a doer. The capability to be gentle, kind, meek, good, have peace, embrace joy for the little things, and hold onto it. Being faithful and patient with self brings out the love for self, spilling over to those with whom we want to express those very terms.
The choice to express love toward another comes from the depths of who we are. Marriage is an entity that allows us to have do-overs, again and again. Knowing the design of marriage is perfect and the two in it are not, we must not give up. When bringing the best of who you are to all occasions, the tone becomes a common place for contentment.
The mishaps entertained in life and getting through is an opportunity to see how love has been bestowed many times over. The inability to purge what’s familiar and unkind can hinder the expression of love toward another. The term “love” cannot be left among “feelings,” they could change throughout the day.
Being deliberate about who you are and want to be, could be the very act of identifying how to love thyself to become a better neighbor. The benefit of love is the focus on being a giver without the need for a return. What’s love got to do with it? Humbly put, everything!
