We can learn to Love. When the foundation for a building is begun, the wooden forms are placed and concrete poured in. In time, the forms are removed, and the real foundation is there. That is how it is with Love, whether it is Love within the immediate family, with friends, Lovers, spouses, or anyone else who comes into your life. Then the concrete is poured in, and in time, there is a solid foundation.
Real Love takes the investment of one's self and one's time.
After all, just like your grandmother always said, you only get out of something what you put into it. Any good relationship needs work and mutual respect. One of the saddest stories I ever heard was from good friends of ours who had just attended a wedding. Oh well, if it doesn't work out, we can always get a divorce. No matter who is special in your life, day in and day out, we need to show our love and caring for each other.
