Love Huh?

Hi guys! How're you all doing? Well, personally i've been taking exams one after the other, and thanks to God i'm actually enjoying them! ie I'm not stressed out or worried or any of that stuff; it's awesome really.

Aight now truth be told, i really didn't have any plans to make a post about valentine's day...at all. Partly because i think it receives WAYYYY too much hype already. But oh well, plans change i guess.

Now please don't misunderstand, the last thing i intend to do is hate or bust anyone's bubble but let's be honest 'Celebration of Love'? REALLY?! I mean, do we sincerely believe that February 14th celebrates love? I mean sure there are the sweet wall papers with all them romantic lines and stuff, and there's the traditional rose-chocolate-wine-teddy bear ensemble. For those who like to take to another level altogether, there could be that new movie you know she'd just love, dinner at some exotic place with a killer menu...and very possibly a booked room at one of those classy hotels. Ring a bell? Riiiiight. Now of course this does not apply to EVERYONE, just the huge majority and many who fall under this category are convinced that those things i just listed above (of course they most likely vary in more ways than one depending on the couple but you get the picture ;) )are things people will most naturally do if they are in love. Correct?

Wrong.

Yeah, you read right but hey! chill, don't close the page just yet i'm getting somewhere. ;) What i'm driving at is that of the millions over the face of the globe who get crazed over this 'traditional' celebration, only a measly percentage truly have a clue what love is and who love is embodied in. But does he get recognized on Feb 14th even though He IS love? I wish.

If only girls getting greedier for materialistic stuff, and guys putting themselves under unnecessary pressure to impress someone; either the girl, her friends, his friends or whoever; if only that meant love...

If only letting go of my principles and subjecting my body to degradation outside marriage due to my need for acceptance or possibly a self esteem issue; if only that meant love...

If only letting lust drive me and trying to get what i know i don't value or deserve from a girl who adores me, just cus i probably can; if only that was love...

Nah. I don't think so. You see, the definition of love never changed...we just allowed the world's lies change our interpretation and understanding. That's what's pathetic. You want the truth? Get a bible and check John 3:16, and when you're done with that move to 1 Corinthians 13...THAT'S love. If you're not learning from that manual, or by THAT example, you've got a long way to go pal.

So please let's clear the misconception. Contrary to what we 'say' is being celebrated on Valentines day, all i 'see' being celebrated most is selfishness, greed and sex. That's a truth many will contest but still...
We degrade love and it's whole essence when we place it as modern day February 14th's theme. Love is NOT always getting stuff (material stuff or otherwise), Love also isn't about how much you can flaunt or show off or buy either. Those who're believers in the gospel of Jesus Christ have got the perfect role model to teach us how this love thing is done and it would be pretty cool if more people made Him their tutor as well.

People, love is a verb and the action here must be in EVERY aspect, EVERY season and for EVERY person..irrespective of who they are. 
Now when there's that special person, ya'll can plan your own special day, just for two! There's nothing wrong with that is there? Is it extremely expedient to join the rest of the world and make your love a commercial activity? Huh? More about 'goods and services' than the actual person?
Fellas, there's no beating J.C's example, okay? Once he takes first place in your heart and you learn to love like Him everything becomes easier. Ladies, i don't know about you but i'd be very content having a dude insanely in love with Christ; cus then i'm certain he can't help but love & value me right...as a princess ought to be cherished. ^_^

So please, let the love life run in our veins. For all those who might be feeling alone or left out due to all the hype and pressure from various people about you not 'having anyone' or you being 'sad and alone', firstly don't let them get to you (some of them just want free cake & candy) and then as someone told me recently, many just want to stick their noses in your business and try to pressure you till they're running your life; DON'T LET IT HAPPEN! Everything is beautiful and perfect in it's right time (a.k.a God's time). So just do as the following pictures say, and let your 'loving' be everyday. ;)
I Love you people! And i mean that too. :D
