Reasons to LOVE, RESPECT, and TRUST
Inside every person lies a reason, a purpose to endure life’s obstacles and tests of faith. Inside every person there is a need, a longing to feel needed and be loved. To be respected and held accountable to life’s expectations.
Often we forget where we are, how we got here, and what our purpose is. To be in love and love faithfully with all your heart is just part of the reason to be alive. To Respect and trust that other person and leave behind the emotions of anguish, insecurity, and controlling fears is one and yet the toughest decisions we must make.
Where do we start? How do we proceed forward without taking a step aside and be critical of life’s conditions? Its not an easy task. We weren’t promised that life was going to be a heaven, however, we were promised the presence of a SAVIOR, a GUIDE, and overall, a TRUST WORTHY LOVING COMPANION – GOD.
Falling in love seems rather a process of a check list. Marking off the areas we have learned of the other person as we endure and make a commitment to follow and give all we have to love and respect this one person. Once accomplished the tasks, you must take the ULTIMATE step to share your life time with this person. The most important, yet most rewarding life decision ever made. Nothing will be simple, it is a journey and adventure to continue to love one another and share the respect that each VOWED to give the other.
Respect in all areas and definition of the word is simple. Understanding the necessities of your partner, - life companion, making sure you cover all areas of those needs. How do you handle being fully determined and willing to contribute your 100% of you and dedicate yourself to that one person? Through understanding, respect, and through the unmentioned but highly motivated presence of your concise, you will learn to have patience, and fully devout your whole being to serve and carter to the needs of your mate.
What if you are not being understood? What if there is miscommunication and your needs are not met? What then? Divorce? Separation? It is an option, but pluck out first what works and what doesn’t work before you take this route. What have you done to make sure that this relationship works? What are the sacrifices you have endured and willing to continue to take? Have you only focused on the negatives and not given a chance to the positive aspects of love?
Remember, you are the only one that can change who you are. Not someone else that has come into your life. They can motivate you, but you can choose to be how you are by yourself. Is this causing you to break away and find another grieving shoulder?
Think about this, you can influence someone, but you can’t change them. In other words, if you and your mate are not seeing eye to eye, have you asked yourself, what did (I)you miss? And how did you get this far? Communication is the key. Being able to trust completely on each other and share your thoughts, heart, and soul with this person... NO SECRECY – this helps to heal any wounds or insecurities.
I don’t necessarily know this all to be true, but to the best of my own usage and comprehension. I am a thinker; therefore I will find ways to express myself to my love. We communicate and constantly remind each other how much we love each other. Pretty awesome.....Saving that kiss, those words of "Te AMO" (I LOVE YOU), that hug, and sharing that special meal together, laughing, wrestling each other till I end up crying (because I refuse to give up and surrender easily :) Love is just that, knowing when and how to pick and choose the battles in marriage.
