What runs into your mind when people tells you how much they loves you?
The feelings are always interesting indeed when we heard those uttered word from peoples. There are some Significant terms to treat here so as to know the difference between "COMMON & SPECIAL LOVE"
this piece of writing will be of help to both teenagers and adult so as to have positive thinking toward the word.
Common love: This could mean Mutual intense feelings of affection and care or a deep liking shared by more than one, Simple, Ordinary or Normal people. A term of friendly address regardless of feelings.
Special love: Unique, of particular interest care or deep liking for a dear, beloved derling.
Here are some questions to be asked;
Where is common love expected?
Why turned special?
What's next to be done?
The word love is not as special as we all see it but we made it so. Why? If we have followed the commandment to love our neighbor, we will see how common love is.
I have discovered that this kind of thing is common among the teenagers and the youths. Nigeria to be precised and i have found out that it is due to how we are brought up. It is scarce in our growing up to hear that. Where we here that most is in conversation between lovers. So after many years, we are despirate to find someone to say that to us. We use anything to get it from someone.
Long time ago on a friday night as about 9pm. I was about going to vigil. My girl lover called me. We talked as usual and droped the call. She called back to tell me that i haven't said something. I guessed for a while and later realised it was that "i love you" i didn't say. After i drop the call, i was happy to say that to someone for the first time. That night i didn't concentrate in vigil. I was just thinking about it. After that day, i will call just to say and hear that word "I love you" from her. Smiles.
Relationships where common love should exist are neighbor, Family, Relatives, Friends, Coworker & Mutual Relationship.
Love have a great significant in these types of relationships. Not just to be acquired in but also to be profess in the mouth I LOVE YOU or simply LOVE YOU. "Because its a common love" its shared among more than one person. Love makes the other party in the relationship committed & ready to be there for you, whenever you show it "that you love" either parent, brother, sister or friend.
Why turned special?:
An adage says "when a purpose of a thing is not known the abuse is inevitable.
When there is misuse of a word; it sound more than it content.
If the word "LOVE" had been used from the onset, background, beginning i.e from the family (parent to children) when a mere person, friend tells you outside its not longer new to you, instead you'll rather appreciate the fact that the person likes, love you and not hate you.
And also you will have out grown or being able to differentiate the common love (regardless of feeling) & the special love (with feeling).
What's next to be done?
Keith Harrell in his book "attitude is everything" narrated this story;
Taking a survey, how many children have heard their parent say, "I love you'. The night i realized that i had never heard my father tell me he loved me, later that night i called my grandma and talked to her about it. She said something to me i'll never forget. "I know your daddy loves you, but looking back, i don't think his father ever told him. (You see, that's the problem; it started from the beginning, the onset).
Sometimes in life, when you want something you have to be willing to take the initiative (take the move first). I decided that on my dad's birthday I'd call and tell him "I love you" if you want more friends, you've got to be a friend, if you want love, you've got to give love. As a result of that one birthday call, my father and I regularly tell each other "I love you".
Three of the strongest motivating words in the world happen to be the three least used word: I LOVE YOU. Do you know someone who is overdue to hear those words? (It might be your youngest siblings you know! In order for you to get the best from him/her).
Janella, even though she had been treated poorly by her father, she took the initiative and wrote him a letter to try and open communication with him. He refused to read it, she wrote another letter, he didn't read that one either.
When his birthday came, she sent him a large bouquet of flowers with a card saying, "Daddy, I love you". That kind gesture opened the lines of communication.
The best next thing to do now is make a move.
"If the mountain is not coming to meet Mohammed, Mohammed should go up and meet the mountain" I guess you know that. Make it common to you. Tell it to people you love. Tell it to your parent. It is important you make it common now. Say it to your children.
Look at what the great book says about love in 1corithians13:1-9 message version.
If I speak with human eloquence and angelic ecstasy but don't love, I'm nothing but the creaking of a rusty gate.
If I speak God's Word with power, revealing all his mysteries and making everything plain as day, and if I have faith that says to a mountain, "Jump," and it jumps, but I don't love, I'm nothing.
If I give everything I own to the poor and even go to the stake to be burned as a martyr, but I don't love, I've gotten nowhere. So, no matter what I say, what I believe, and what I do, I'm bankrupt without love.
Love never gives up.
Love cares more for others than for self.
Love doesn't want what it doesn't have.
Love doesn't strut,
Doesn't have a swelled head,
Doesn't force itself on others,
Isn't always "me first,"
Doesn't fly off the handle,
Doesn't keep score of the sins of others,
Doesn't revel when others grovel,
Takes pleasure in the flowering of truth,
Puts up with anything,
Trusts God always,
Always looks for the best,
Never looks back,
But keeps going to the end.
Love never dies.
Inspired speech will be over some day; praying in tongues will end; understanding will reach its limit....
But you will be tested with the greatest commandmen which is "your love"
TUMI LOVES YOU.
