We all can agree that when in love, it's one of the sweetest feelings ever. This is what makes love magical. For many ladies, love is all the feelings in the world that makes a woman forget her problems.
I am sure you who are reading this right now also have your own definitions of love, if you're given the opportunity to define love in your own words and to let other know what you think love is. Permit me however, to chip this in: True love is work; it is compromise and sacrifice.
Every normal man and woman wants to experience the sweetest love life ever. Little wonder all the romantic fil ms, when they hit the cinemas, get lots of people storming there to watch them, especially the lady folks. Many want to get inspiration from such films to spice up their love lives. People want a grand love life but not everyone is willing to pay the required price that goes along with it. It's true that there's no gain without pain,
The earlier you know and accept the true meaning and proper definition of love, the better for you. You don't have to set yourself up to fail and to let people learn from your mistakes and experiences. You can choose to be a good example of true love to young ones and generations to come on. I want to share several helpful ways you can make love work in your relationship.
1) Know What True Love Means: To know true love as you ought to, you need to know God, the One who is the originator and source of true love. Just as we need to consult a manufacturer's manual in order to use a gadget or equipment to its optimum efficiency, we need to be in vital touch with God's laid down operational procedures for love in order to get the most from our marriages and relationships. To properly understand what love truly is, carefully examine 1 Corinthians 13:4-8. True love is defined by its expressions and actions, not necessarily by the words it professes or by mere thoughts.
2) Put Away Pride : A lot has happened which led to broken homes, separations and divorces all because one of the couple wanted to have his/her way, one wasn't ready to "look like" a fool for love's sake. Pride is most times at the root of so many splits in relationships. Like it or not, for love to last and flourish, pride has got to be out of the scene. The couple must be willing to let go of pride and choose to look like fools, if necessary, for the sake of love.
3) Be Selfless: Love never does well in a selfish environment. Love thrives where sacrifices are made. There are always things to give. From your time, to your money, your resources, your tender loving care, your concerns, your sensitivity to the other's plight, your hugs, your counsels, your calls, you just checking up on someone and so on; there's always what to give. When you love someone and you want it to last, you give freely and forgive continuously because no one is perfect. Love is the only thing that can make a person "nearly perfect". Anything done in love is perfect.
4) Be Friends: There's somethings the thought of having a very good friend does when things appear to fall apart in any relationship. True friends place the interest of their friends before theirs and are willingly to go the extra mile. This is one of the reasons why you should marry your friend because when all the feelings of romance and intense passion pipe low, when the grand appearance of a hot body and all the 6-packs disappear into the memory lanes of history, the foundation of friendship can be counted upon to always rekindle love.
5) Overlook Wrong: Always give excuses or a benefit of doubt to your partner for something you perceived as wrong which might not be the case for them for they might have had the right intention but the action came out wrong. As it is said, we judge people by their actions and expect them to judge us by our intentions. Always remember that true love hopes and believes all things and that's how it ought to be when you want your love to last a long time. Cheers
Keep Loving, Keep Living...............LOVE ISSUES
