LOL... Seven

So i was on Facebook recently and i posted something in my status. It was just a thought that i had... something to think about, so i posted it to see how others reacted. Now, i have this friend. I have never really met him before, but one of my close friends knows him. His name is Chris, and he is an amazing writer. I really appreciate his words and thoughts. I just wanted to share mt post and his response with all of you because it really gave me something to think about. I put up that post in order to give people something to think about, but in the end, i was the one who was doing the thinking. 


my post :

love is scary... i cannot ever pretend like you are not going to leave. because when you enter a room... you ALWAYS walk out eventually... unless something in that room kills you. Either way... someone gets hurt.

Chris:

...Love is patient, love is kind. It is not self-seeking or self-seeking but is always hopeful. This is a Bible verse, and while you may or may not be religious, I believe the statement to be virtuous common sense.
A room can be entered or left, but it's home. It's a place to look to when not looking for experience in the real world. While it must not be one to be locked in, it is the external representation of flawless beauty within you, me, and anybody.

A room can be compared to the soul. Your soul. It only takes up space unless you make it your own piece of art. The soul for love is never pointless, only when used without purpose. Like your room, be it a bedroom, or any room, invite only those who you think deserve to see it, and the beauty that you choose to forever lay in it. Your room, your soul, your heart.

They are very beautiful words, and they are very true. I have thought a lot about them. They relate a lot to life, love, peace, and faith. Yes, faith. Faith is yet another value of love. Another lesson. Love can be connected to many things, but faith... means a lot to many, it is, for some, all they have in life. The fact that faith and love can be so closely connected is amazing. Love and faith are basically all that the human population have to keep them together. Without love, and without faith, there would be no peace, no freedom, no point to living. I just wanted to share this because it is a reminder to me of how love is not strong enough to keep people together when it is alone, it can only work if there is faith. If we had no faith in love, then we would have no love. This post is a reminder of that, and this reminder came to me in the form of a friend, someone in my generation. The generation that will be running our future very shortly. I realize that with love, and with faith, with strength, we will be able to build our future. And for as long as there are people who believe in love and hold faith in it, then we will be okay, together.
