Confessions of a Bonafide Pastor's Kid.

Love is not just a feeling, it’s also a person, a blessing, and a choice. It is not just the showing of your affections, but the showing of your willingness to sacrifice, and your willingness to compromise. Not compromising yourself, but to create compromise because the only thing you want is for things to work, and for that person to be happy. Because that will make you happy. Love is about finding the person whose small emptiness you are willing to fill. That person who’s love can fill you. It’s not about finding someone to complete you though. Because the only time you will truly be able to love with all of you, is when you love yourself. This person can’t be your only reason for living, but this person enriches everything you live for. They are the blessing that you find in your day. You can’t rely on this person to give you life, but rather rely on this person to be by your side, during life. Joy, laughter, and smiles should be your daily routine. And when those three things are lacking, because of circumstance, or ‘life’, you make the choice to love, and to maintain the promise that love holds. Love is not just a feeling, it’s a person, a blessing, and a choice.
