Luv 2 love you
Happy Friday beloved. Today's blog is inspired by an often abused emotion. Love, at least as far as I can tell is a fairly intricate and confusing feeling. Some folk misuse the expression by frequently and carelessly tossing the phrase around in every direction. C'mon now, if we let them tell it, they love every damn thing. It seems as though this sort of individual simply inserts the term 'love' in place of the word 'enjoy'. Ladies, after 4 weeks of dating, if he turns to you and says "I love you", trust me, what he really wants to convey is the fact that he "enjoys" you. The next time your girlfriend goes on a tirade about how much she loves Starbucks' Caffe' Latte, please understand that what she really means is that she enjoys it. My brotha, when ole' girl whispers in your ear how much she loves making love to you, (no disrespect but...) it is highly likely that she really just thinks the 'lovin' is quite enjoyable. Here's a thought... how about we start 'calling a spade a spade'. Let's stop confusing gratification with the emotion of Love. They are completely separate and unique entities.
On the other end of the spectrum, we have those overly guarded individuals who would deliberately dispute Love's presence in their life even if they were hit by a Mack truck with LOVE spelled out on the license plates. Okay, I realize that was a little dramatic but you get the point, right? Some folk wander through life intentionally trying to avoid emotional attachment to anything or anyone because they've been "hurt" before. I don't claim to be a psychologist nor a psychiatrist but if I were... my advice to such an individual would be to seek professional counsel, confront the issues that plague your past, break the shackles of yesteryear so that you can maximize your future potential. Trust me, true love is one of those things that we can't afford to deprive ourselves of. If you are the type of person who refuses to love someone because you don't like to appear vulnerable, that's a clear indication that you're already in a very endangered space. Love God, love life, love yourself... enjoy milkshakes. Be blessed.

Right on. Too true, on all counts, especially the milkshakes and Mack trucks. LOL Keep up the good word... :) (and the good work)
I know all too well about that mack truck. Don't let love pass u by...you'll be sorry!
I agree that so many people throw the word Love around to the point where it is devalued. Maybe some people aren’t aware of what love truly is. If you have never experienced it or seen real live examples of true love how can one recognize when they are face to face with love…….. What is love? What does it feel like exactly? Can you put a timeframe on when you should love someone? ……. I always use the definition that Love is an unselfish loyal and benevolent concern for the good of another. I don’t think people these days truly love the person that they can be so quick to say it to. Maybe that’s why some people guard it so closely because to them it still holds some value.
