L is for....

The way you LOOK at me
O is for the Only One I See
V is Very Very extroadinary
E is Even More than Anyone That You Adore

And Love is all that I can give to you
Love is more than just a game for two
Two in love can make it
Take my heart but please don't break it
Love was made for me and you...

So the other day I was wondering if true love was possible and so that was my status on facebook...and the next day I received a message..and this is what it said. The author will remain unknown!

Whether true love is possible is an interesting question.It requires an analysis of the definition "love" and "true" and then proceeds to inquire as to the circumstances in which it occurs. A logical, analytical approach is most preferred.

As per the definition of "love" I will reference the "he agape"--I'm sorry I can't use actual Greek characters. The selfless, giving love which is the ultimate result of a romantic association is possible.

Next, we consider the adjective "true", "aletheis" meaning, true, real, genuine, or honest. The love must be real or it is not love. It must be genuine or it has an alterior motive. Since "love seeks not its own glory" then alterior motives are precluded. It must also be honest for the same reasons. The conclusion then is that the adjective is mere surplusage and verbiage if we accept the proffered definition.

Finally, one consideres the circumstances in which it occurs. Love--omitting the unnecessary adjective--is something that is cultivated and worked for. It takes time and experience for it to be nurtured. It cannot happen by chance. Nor is it consistent with the idea that once two people fall in love that they stay that way forever. Many married couples fall in and out of love--as the term is commonly used--but they have to work for it. That's why arranged marriages aren't as bad an idea as Americans assume.

There are many proofs, examples, arguments, and Scriptural citations which I have used to generate my opinion on the subject, but explaining the intricacies of the analysis would be extremely lengthy, so I have tried to keep it to a very brief summary of a much longer thesis.

So what do you think? For most of you...your married..you think its true..but until the day that I find my one true love...I don't believe you! Hope you all have a splendid day! I will continue my search for true love and one day I'll find it! Don't worry I got people looking for me...hopefully God will RSVP to me one day and let me know who it is! :)

Prayers are always good and I'm very thankful for all of you who do pray for me!
