What Are Words....

How do you define Love? I define Love as the following...it's an action not a feeling...it's a commitment not vacant words...it's an overwhelming desire to selflessly give yourself to someone and hope beyond hope they do the same in return. You see falling in Love isn't about what you can get out of someone, it's about what you can give to them. A few people who know me might think I'm cynical when it comes to Love, but they couldn't be further from the truth. I'm not cynical! I just know what true Love looks like and what it doesn't...and honestly most relationships I see are selfish emotional vapors of deep infatuation desperately wishing it was something more. But that's impossible when you're dealing with one or two selfish individuals. Which is why I absolutely adore the below video.

If anyone watches American Idol you might already know the story of Chris Medina. Chris had a beautiful fiancee who sadly was badly injured in a car crash in 2009. She survived but had a horrible brain injury. Chris didn't leave her like most men probably would and honestly we wouldn't of blamed him if he did. No, Chris stayed and became her caregiver. He went on American Idol are her request and told his Love story. Below is the song he wrote for her. You want to know how I define Love...it's below. Love isn't a feeling...it's an ACTION...it's a selfless commitment to someone else. THAT'S the kind of Love we all should strive to give and pray someday receive!! Love is just another word, but it's what that word represents that can mean everything...

Paradise...

Imagine a world of peace, love, acceptance, and joy. A world free of judgement, sorrow, hate and pain. I think we all dream of Paradise. It's those dreams you accidentally wake up from in the middle of the night and so desperately try to fall back asleep to get back to. A happy joyful place that you wish so desperately was your reality. Sadly, worlds like that don't exist in this mortal life, but someday when my Lord calls me Home I'll understand truly what Paradise really is as I run and skip around Heaven.

Great New Song from one of my favorite bands 'Paradise' by Coldplay.

'When she was just a girl, She expected the world, But it flew away from her reach so, she ran away in her sleep, and dreamed of PARADISE...'
