The Dude

First of all, tell me what your qualifications are to make you the all-expert on what love is? ;p

If you're a single dude who's approaching 40 then please don't continue. If, however, you feel you're in a successful, meaningful, beautiful relationship, then I'm interested in hearing how what you wrote will continue :)

1)If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
2)If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
3)If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.
4)Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
5)It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
6)Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
7)It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8)Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
9)For we know in part and we prophesy in part,
10)but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears.
11)When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me.
12)Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
13)And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
- end quote (1 Cor 13 1:13-NIV)

I rest my case! =)

"The truest love that ever heart Felt at its kindled core, Did through each vein, in quickened start, The tide of being pour.

Her coming was my hope each day, Her parting was my pain; The chance that did her steps delay Was ice in every vein.

I dreamed it would be nameless bliss, As I loved, loved to be; And to this object did I press As blind as eagerly.

But wide as pathless was the space That lay our lives between, And dangerous as the foamy race Of ocean-surges green.

And haunted as a robber-path Through wilderness or wood; For Might and Right, and Woe and Wrath, Between our spirits stood.

I dangers dared; I hindrance scorned; I omens did defy: Whatever menaced, harassed, warned, I passed impetuous by.

On sped my rainbow, fast as light; I flew as in a dream; For glorious rose upon my sight That child of Shower and Gleam.

Still bright on clouds of suffering dim Shines that soft, solemn joy; Nor care I now, how dense and grim Disasters gather nigh.

I care not in this moment sweet, Though all I have rushed o'er Should come on pinion, strong and fleet, Proclaiming vengeance sore:

Though haughty Hate should strike me down, Right, bar approach to me, And grinding Might, with furious frown, Swear endless enmity.

My love has placed her little hand With noble faith in mine, And vowed that wedlock's sacred band Our nature shall entwine.

My love has sworn, with sealing kiss, With me to live--to die; I have at last my nameless bliss. As I love--loved am I!"

What I hate about blogging is that any one can leave a comment, and everyone is an expert. Well as the dude promised you next week you will get real guide to know if you are in love..

Hi ..... I found this - am I number 5?? am I super late on this? I didn't honestly get the love post thing...but love is like family. If it is anything else it might be lust or possessiveness (ownership).
p.s. I am not an expert so don't take my word for it. but I am smarter than all of you. I like the Cor. thing zmaster.
peace!

What is this! I hate the internet! I am thinking of shutting down this blog and go back to writing on paper.. I think not.

الظاهر يا صديقي أن بعض الناس اليوم يمرون بشيء يمكن يكون اسمه أزمة منتصف العمر وليس شرطا أن تاتي هذه الازمة في منتصف العمر قد تأتي في المنتصف او الثلث الأول او العشر الأخير أو عند عمر التاسعة والعشرين الله وحده اعلم
