when dr. love is lovesick

a rough week. love problems — others and mine — occupied my entire week. i was so busy attending to others’ heart problems i didn’t get to sort out mine. so i tried to go out and let sh*t out for a day. didn’t work. now, i just did this weird/new idea: seek out the guidance of a pastor.
IT WORKED.
things are clear to me now. but it doesn’t mean i’m fine.
i will repost some of his insights from his website (related or not related to me, it doesn’t matter. i think this applies to everyone.)





INFTUATION causes us to have unrealistic beliefs regarding relationships. i remember believing my life would be perfect only if she was in love with me. infatuation causes us to think this way.

LOVE, on the other hand, is based on truth and reality. we love someone based on a ganuine understanding of who he/she really is. we see the good and the bad, and we love anyway. our affection grows as the friendship grows.





famous last words:
“can two people walk together
without agreeing on the direction?”
(Amos 3:3)
