I remember answering the very same question few years ago, even when I was still in grade school through the different slumbooks and autographs. I didn't know that it will take me 24 years to really realize the real answer to this question.
Love is blind.
It may sound cliche but its true. I hate to admit it but yes, love is blind (in all aspect). When you love you don't mind their flaws and faults, you just accept them as they are. No questions asked. Even if their actions may seem to be not appropriate or is not generally accepted by the majority, you simply don't care.
In love, you really have to go through all the mysteries of life from the joyful to sorrowful to glorious mystery and even the luminous mystery. Its not always happiness or pain there is a balance of everything in a relationship. That is how God made our lives. Perfect. Someone told me that perfection depends on the person's perspective and I believe him. How we view life or love will say whether or not we achieved "perfection".
Love is an unexplainable emotion.
True. I can't even describe how it works, when it starts and how it will end. Probably, we can explain it base on how we feel at that moment but it'll not be clear as the sky.
But God already provided us the perfect definition of what love is through the Bible:
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
I wanted to live by this definition. If I wanted to work on this relationship, I have to believe Him.
Always protects.
Always trusts.
Always hopes.
Always perseveres.
I know GOD is always there for me, for us. He will guide us in the right path.
