Love is always supportive, loyal, hopeful, and trusting. 1 Corinthians 13:7
_among the most difficult to sort is love. is it for a friend or for a lover? do you want him as your friend or more than that? what separates love for a friend to a love for a lover? teeners cannot miss the confusion of falling in love with their bestfriends, most specially when they are the opposite sex. it is hard, really to differentiate one from the other. though, i will propose two major things that could seperate these two, still, my reasons are to be proven. one is marriage, though some considers and does rituals they call "friendship marriage" which in turn will i call, "friendship accountability commitment". another is body contact. you hug and kiss your friends but you don't sexually explore each one's body or think of procreating with them.
_before getting more in depth with the difference, maybe i could expound better on what "real love" is. in any other written or spoken literature or article, there's no comparing to 1 Corinthians 13 when love is explained. i extracted out a verse from the whole chapter that for me defines what love really is. again, this is to be proven. when you love a person, whether a friend or lover, you will always ..
.. believe and trust him,
.. give your best to him and
.. stand firm defending him.
No matter what it takes!
_yes, love isn't defined by social status, educational attainment or racial origin. it is something that is from the heart, the very core of every person which is un-understandable. for me, a heart is a sepeate being that lives in us. it has its own standards. it sees differently from our eyes. it feels differently with our skin. more than the superficial and outwardly appearance, our heart is amazingly capable of intruding one's heart, too.
_love is true, whether for a friend or lover, when it endures!
