“The whispers in the morning of lovers sleeping tight…” There is something about those words that slows the heart and steadies the soul. Love does that. It softens sharp edges. It makes strength feel gentle and gentleness feel powerful. When it is real, love is not weakness. It is force. It is courage. It is the decision to stay when leaving would be easier. It is the humility to forgive when pride demands distance. Love can rebuild what ego tears down. Love can calm storms that logic cannot silence. Love can transform two flawed human beings into partners in purpose. But wisdom must guide love. Because we often confuse love with likeness. To like someone is to enjoy them. You admire their humour. You respect their mind. You feel light in their presence. Liking is delight. It is comfort. It is the quiet satisfaction of simply being together without tension. Liking makes you smile without effort. To love someone goes deeper. It is commitment. It is a sacrifice. It is choosing a person even when emotions fluctuate. Love is anchored. Love absorbs imperfection. Love says, I am here — not just when it feels good, but when it is hard. Yet love without like can become heavy. Someone may love you out of attachment, history, or dependency and still not enjoy you. They may love you and resent you. Love you and compete with you. Love you and attempt to control you. That is not healthy love; that is distorted love. Likeness without love can be shallow. Someone may adore your brilliance, your beauty, your energy, yet retreat when responsibility calls. They like you, but they are not rooted in you. They celebrate you when it is easy and vanish when it requires depth. Love requires maturity. Alignment of values. Shared vision. Emotional discipline. Peace, not just passion. Above all else ... Love is patient Love is kind. It does not envy. It does not boast It is not proud. It does not dishonour. It is not self-seeking. It is not easily angered. It always protects, trusts & hopes.
