The Excellence of Love

"Love is patient, love is kind  and  is not jealous; love does not brag  and  is not arrogant,does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong  suffered, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails; but if  there are gifts of  prophecy, they will be done away; if  there are  tongues, they will cease; if  there is  knowledge, it will be done away."

1 Corinthians 13:4-8

So I'm a fan of the Bible on Facebook and this was their topic today. I just wanted to share this because when I read it the first thing that came to mind is that this love can only come from yourself and God. I've always said love doesn't hurt and for that reason I can say that I've never truely been in love. I've loved selflessly, gave all I had but didn't get it in return. Seems like in these times you should be lucky to even have someone! Its a shame but there's not much loyalty left in this cold world. But I have hope for the real thing. Step one is finding someone you care about and everything comes into place after if its meant to be ... step one complete =)
