Happy Valentine's Day to all the happy couples out there!! And shout out to all my single ladies hahahahah..
Anyway on to more important things... Tainted love. What is tainted love you ask? Well I think it's this idea of love that the media, books, music, poetry, etc gives us. Now if you know me I LOVE to read some Nicholas Sparks and boy does he know how to write a good love story, but is that truly going to happen to me. Nope! But it's great to wish and hope that. Then there's music I can't even decide who to choose but you all know who my favs are, but anyway you can't find many artist if any, who hasn't had a song out there about love. So what in the world am I supposed to think about love with a future mate. Are they gonna be able to sing and play piano for me, will I always be the only person they see as theirs? I don't know, I guess it's a risk I have to take but one thing I do know is that I have a love that it everlasting and that is the love of my Savior. So all those other things are just an added bonus and if He blesses me with those things then I will forever be grateful.
For great is His love toward us, and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever.
Praise the Lord. Psalm 117:2 (NIV)
Your future relationship needs to be SOLID!...SOLID as a ROCK!
ReplyDeleteI definitely agree that the media centered world that we live in now has had a major impact on the relationship styles and "love" that our generation lives by. Yea, the Nicholas Sparks idea of love will most likely never happen, but that's meant to be fiction and entertaining. But I have to disagree with you on the idea that music and poetry gives people false hopes. Sure some of the music does, but if you read the right poetry, then I believe that a person could feel like that. Music and Poetry are two of the things that I hold dear and love to do, listen to music and write poetry. And yes, the love God has for us, and hopefully we have for him, is totally pure and untainted, that's the wonderful thing about God's undying love. And I hope you don't mind the comments I'm leaving.
