THE GIFT OF LOVE
No one falls in love by choice, it is by CHANCE.
No one stays in love by chance, it is by WORK.
And no one falls out of love by chance, it is by CHOICE
To My Friends Who Are SINGLE
Love is like a butterfly . The more you chase it , the more it eludes you. But if you just let it fly, it will come to you when you least expect it. Love can make you happy but often it hurts, but love's only special when you give it to someone who is really worth it. So take your time and choose the best.
To My Friends Who Are NOT SO SINGLE
Love isn't about becoming somebody else's "perfect person." It's about finding someone who helps you become the best person you can be.
To My Friends Who Are PLAYBOY/GIRL TYPE
Never say "I love you" if you don't care. Never talk about feelings if they aren't there. Never touch a life if you mean to break a heart. Never look in the eye when all you do is lie. The cruelest thing a guy can do to a girl is to let her fall in love when he doesn't intend to catch her fall and it works both ways...
To My Friends Who Are MARRIED
Love is not about "it's your fault," but "I'm sorry." Not" where are you," but "I'm right here." Not "how could you," but "I understand." Not "I wish you were," but "I'm thankful you are."
To My Friends Who Are ENGAGED
The true measure of compatibility is not the years spent together but how good you are for each other.
To My Friends Who Are HEARTBROKEN
Heartbreaks last as long as you want and cut as deep as you allow them to go. The challenge is not how to survive heartbreaks but to learn from them.
To My Friends Who Are NAIVE
How to be in love: fall but don't stumble, be consistent, but not too persistent, share and never be unfair, understand and try not to demand, and get hurt but never keep the pain.
To My Friends Who Are POSSESSIVE
It breaks your heart to see the one you love happy with someone else but it's more painful to know that the one you love is unhappy with you.
To My Friends Who Are AFRAID TO CONFESS
Love hurts when you break up with someone. It hurts even more when someone breaks up with you. But love hurts the most when the person you love has no idea how you feel.
To My Friends Who Are STILL HOLDING ON
A sad thing about life is when you meet someone and fall in love, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be and that you have wasted years on someone who wasn't worth it. If he isn't worth it now he's not going to be worth it a year or 10 years from now. Let go.....
TO ALL MY FRIENDS...
My wish for you is a wonderful, Holy Spirit filled man/woman whose love is honest, strong, mature, never-changing, uplifting, protective, encouraging, rewarding and unselfish. Now that's love!
Making Mature Decisions   Sometimes in life, we come to a crossroads. If you haven't yet, just keep on living, and you will eventually come to a place, a proverbial fork in the road, where a choice is standing there demanding to be made. There are consequences to both decision and indecision. I read a quote once that says, "Indecision is the choice to forfeit all of your options." When you don't choose, you are - in fact - choosing to allow circumstances to dictate your destiny. I've been in the decision-making posture for the past few months. It is an uncomfortable place to be. The decisions I've had to make are of such magnitude that they could not be entered into hastily. I had to sit back and quantify the reality of the situation versus my illusions of "what I wanted." These decisions have caused and will continue to cause me to be separated from those who I called friend. My decision to be a mature son (in the biblical sense), and do what was right for destiny - even in the face of enough cirucmstancial evidence to support a decision for the opposite - has caused those who were close to me to distance themselves from me. But...I do not regret my decision. That's truly the one thing in this life that we as indivuduals have...our choices. We choose to submit to God. We choose to submit to our spouses and leaders. We choose whether to be fully led and guided by the Spirit of God or to be led by our own carnal thinking. I chose to follow God, and inevitably dealt a lethal blow to my own preconceived notions about what is or isn't right for me. When I gave my life to Christ, I CHOSE to allow Him to override and supercede my own inclinations. I CHOSE to allow the Holy Spirit of God to lead and guide me into ALL truth...the truth that only He knows. Although my flesh (my carnal nature) does not understand the mature, spiritual choices that I have made in recent times, I am comforted by the fact that these choices have led me directly into will of the Father. Shalom, Evangelist DSW Entry for October 05, 2006 Rules for a Married Man Wear your wedding ring 24/7. * Be nice. * Do household chores before she asks. * Let her go out with her girlfriends and occasionally stay overnight with them. * Let her have a weekend trip with her girlfriends. * Let her know you cherish and love her. * Call her at work just to say "I love you." * Listen to her problems without seeking solutions. * Phone home if you will be late. * Send her flowers at work so she can get them in front of her coworkers. * Send a love letter to her workplace. * Show your affection by kissing and hugging in front of her friends. * Tell her often, "You're beautiful," and that you love her. * Brag to your male friends about your wife; tell her you've done so. * Make your relationship, not your job or career, your highest priority. * Don't spend too much time on the newspaper, the TV, or your buddies. * Buy her perfume that you like. * Place a picture of her (at least one) in your office or work space.
