I don't think there is a right or wrong way to define love. I believe one's definition of love changes with each successful/failed relationship, birth of a child, and lose of a loved one. I think how we view love changes as we grow older and realize the things that are most important in life.
Right now at the age of 29, love to me is defined as the emotional connection between two people.
The longing to be in that special someones presence.
Love is unconditional.
Love is all encompassing.
Love is compromising without regret.
Love is not selfish or self centered.
Love is giving.
Love is freeing.
Love is tried and true.
Love changes.
Love heals.
What's your definition of love????

Stormy Days
This weekend has been filled with stormy weather. I have seen more rain in the past few days than I have seen in the last three months. My son has run into my room more times than he normally would. I have had to stop working on my laptop at the most inopportune times.
I remember growing up as a child and wishing that the sun always shined so I could go outside and play hop-scotch. I remember wondering as a child when lightning struck, where it landed. I remember the fear and the intimidation of the thunderous clouds and the sharp lightning.
Now as a grown up, I relax in God's work. I reflex in his promise. I find comfort in a day filled with storms because I know that after the storm and the rain, the sun will shine again. I know that the puddles will clear, the rainbow will shine through. I think it's the same in life.... don't you?
Whatever your storm, trial, tribulation, obstacle......look at your storm and tell it, the sun shall shine again! And when it does, bask in it's glory. Soak it up and smile because you made it through the storm.
