What Love Is...

I'm currently listening to All or Nothing at All by Harry James on my Frank Sinatra Pandora station, reading blogs about God's love for us...for me...reading about how others have worked through a life of singleness and all the struggles that come with that, and all the joys that come along as well!  How much more of a cheese could I be???  Oh, and I'm watching a romantic comedy as soon as I'm done with this post here....wow.  I can't help but be a hopeless romantic in my heart, but I think I'm pretty realistic about the practicality of hopeless romance.

So, a couple of my favorite things to do are read blogs that others write about the struggles and blessings of their lives, and then share those articles I truly enjoyed with others.  The following article is from "The Sexy Celibate", a blogger I've been following for some time.  She's witty, honest, loves God, and has an obvious passion for women to know how dear their hearts are and how much God loves them.  She also has a passion for women to make good, healthy decisions when it comes to dating.  I love this blog!  I suggest following it! :)

My favorite quote from this post is "I think this can be summed up by an eight year old boy who was asked what he thought love was.  He cocked his head and thought for a little bit.  Then he replied, "When my grandmother got arthritic, she couldn't bend over to paint her toenails anymore.  So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis.  That's what love is."  So dang cute.  And it has a point.  Dating isn't about following a prescribed list of specific qualities and physical features, but rather about finding a good match; someone who will point you to God over and over again.

Here's the link to the article!
