Why Books Do Not Prepare Us For Real Love

As I now recognise, marriage is rarely in danger of being dull, and never in danger of being simple. The word marriage, suburban and colourless in its connotations, in fact hides a welter of intensity and depth that puts to shame the most passionate works of literature. read more here

Books do not prepare us for real love; on the contrary, they prepare us for unreal--or more often, surreal--love.

From subject article:

"Married love teaches us that we bring all of ourselves into a marriage - anxiety, boredom, free-floating sadness and alarm. I continue sometimes to feel unhappy about my work, to worry about my future and to be disappointed with myself and with my friends.

My wife isn't just a witness to my problems, on a bad day, she can sadly end up being held responsible for them."

He, he. Paet...

there is one book that talks about real love 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, 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.

Ate Lee,

Love is also a fruit of the Holy Spirit, diba?

Galatians 5:22 : But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness..

mao gyod Dong, peru ang fruit of the Spirit magkuyog gyod na dili pwede kun love ra, ang tanan nga virtue mogawas gyod kun naa ang HOLY SPIRIT naga control sa usa ka tawo.
