100% PURE LOVE, is that possible in this day and age. Optimistically I choose to believe that love in its purest and truest form is absolutely attainable but I also must admit it is becoming increasingly difficult to achieve. So many details, so many desires, so many obstacles, so many non-understandings, so many broken or lack of trusts, so many short comings, so many heart breaks, so many transgressions, so many chances, etc Seems to all over power what we all have the ability to accomplish; cooperate with our chosen counterpart and flourish in love in the manner the Lord would have us flourish and better yet grow. It is becoming hard for a man (black men to be more specific) to show a respectable love to a woman (black women) without that love coming into question. So many perpetrators get a hold of a "love" and no other way to put it, destroy the very essence of any and all positivity it possesses. Now, loving someone involves money, sex, stature, comfort, style, reputation, "bragging rights", attitude, something (one) on the side, and so much other mess. It was shared with me that a male only needs a wallet and his %#&@$! to show love to a female. Heartfelt feelings are not apparently needed (at least out "there" ) anymore. I would beg to differ however, as easy as we in this place in time can obtain and possess materials (house, cars, jobs/careers, degrees, clothes, jewels, technology) and establish independence, especially for women, where does love have a true foothold? God said out of hope, faith and love, love is the greatest of these. Having it all and then losing it all (which could happen to any and everyone) is the heart love enough to sustain??? Its is Better To Be Alone,than in the wrong Company.Tell me who your best friends are,and I would tell you who you are. If you run with the wolves, you will learn to howl.But if you associate with eagles, you will learn to soar to great height. A mirror reflect a man face, but what he is really like is shown by the kind of friends he chooses.The simple but true fact of life is that you become like those whom you closely associate for the good and the bad.The more you associate with some people the more your life will improve.any time you tolerate mediocrity in others,it increases your mediocrity. An important attribute in successful people is their impatience with negative thinking and negative acting people . As you grow, your associates will change. Some of your friends will not want you to go on.They will want you to stay where you are. friends that do not help you climb, will want you to crawl.Your friends will stretch your vision and choke your dreams. Those that don't increase you, will eventually decrease you. Consider this: Never receive counsel from unproductive people. Never discuss your problems with people who are incapable of contributing to the solution, because those who never succeed themselves, are always the ones who tell you how. Not everyone has a right to speak into your life. You are certain to get the worst of the bargain when you exchange ideas with the wrong person. Don't follow anyone who's not going anywhere. With some people, you spend an evening: with others, you invest it. Be careful where you stop to ask directions along the road of life. Wise is the person who fortifies their life with the right friendships. Happy Moments? Praise God: Difficult Moments? Seek God: Quiet Moments? Worship God: Painful Moments? Trust God: Every Moment? Thank God!
