This is an older post that I wrote back in 2008 on an older blog that is now private . . . in my opinion, it is one of the most important and profound posts I have ever written. It has been somewhat rewritten to reflect my present life situation, which is the best of my life. As important as the message is, there is another message within the message . . . good things come to those who wait . . . it is all about keeping the faith, no matter what.
If we want a love message to be heard,
it has got to be sent out.
To keep a lamp burning,
we have to keep putting oil in it.
Mother Theresa
There is one lesson in life I have learned about love
if you are truly in love, you need to shout it out to the world
what good is undeclared love?
what good is undeclared love?
Prideful love is unhappy love
Even if you don't shout it out to the world and make declarations as I do through my blogs, let the person you love know how much you love them, what their presence in your life means to you . . . make them feel special . . . they are the most high, the most special.
True love is the most special emotion in existence
It is something that I am aware of every moment of every day. After all the years without meaningful love in my life after suddenly becoming a widow, my sweetie is the greatest treasure in my life. I am a new person with a renewed faith that good things come to those who wait. It doesn't get better than that!
I love the lines from Mother Theresa, especially to keep putting oil in the lamp . . . it is so important to keep love alive. Make sure you never let that lamp burn out . . . that is what tragedies are made of.
