LoVe

What is love? Love is a feeling. Love is not always revolving between two lovers. Love involves family, friends, best friend, couples, same gender relationship and love for animals. We call it love if we know how to share what we have and not expecting in return. Like our Lord Jesus, He saved us because He loved us even though sometimes we forgot to thank Him.

Love makes us grow. Love hurts, but love does not hurting us, we are the one who hurt our feelings because we always want to get what we wanted but sometimes it is not for us. So this one hurts a lot and we have to let go.

For instance, love. We have different beliefs or understanding of this four letter word. For some, it is a magical feeling one experiences when seeing someone we adore to the point that gives us the feeling of having butterflies in the stomach. It is hard to believe that what causes us to feel this emotion is a simple word. ---LOVE.

Teenage Love--- they say it is sweet, romantic and filled with dazzling light. When you love someone, you seem to forget the whole world and that person is the only thing worth keeping in our world.

It is not a crime to fall in love. We are not making mistake when we fall in love. Indeed love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast. 1Cor. 13:4

Love is not just about receiving love from other people, it is rather giving love to those people your heart is falling for.

Love is about choosing and still falling for the people you love despite how difficult, despite how they will hurt you back, despite the negatives you will get.

The Beauty of Generosity

It has always been our belief that the love of possession is a weakness to be overcome. Its appeal is to the material part, and if allowed its way it will in time disturb the spiritual balance for which we all strive.

Therefore we must early learn the beauty of generosity. As children we are taught to give what we prize most, that we may taste the happiness of giving; at an early age we are made the family giver of alms. If a child id inclined to be grasping, or to cling too strongly to possessions, legends are related that tell of the contempt and disgrace falling on those who are ungenerous and mean.

Public giving is a part of every important ceremony. It properly belongs to the celebration of birth, marriage, and death, and is observed whenever it is desired to do special honor to any person or event.

Upon such occasions it is common to literally give away all that one has to relatives, to guests of another tribe or clan, but above all to the poor and the aged, from whom we can hope for no return.

Finally, the gift to the great mystery, the religious offering, may be of little value in itself, but to the giver's own thought it should carry the meaning and reward of true sacrifice.
