The Cost of "LOVE"

If we love someone and we give them 100%, what will we get back?

We only get back what they are willing to give us, but should that change how much we give?

The answer is NO. We give not for what we receive, we give because we say we love. The word love is giving up of who we are for the person we say we love. It means surrendering (maybe that is not an understood word) but we give to that person irregardless of what we receive back. A gift is given without expecting anything in return, love is given without expecting anything in return. When you love someone you shouldn't expect anything back, it is their choice.

Today do you chose to love irregardless of what you receive, or do you put a price on the love you give? And if you put a price on it, is it truly love?

What does True Love mean to you? Does it come with a cost, or is it free? I urge you to view the very thought of that word "LOVE", what does it mean to you? "I Love You" Does it mean I only love when I get X, Y and Z, or does it mean I only love when I feel it back? Does it mean that you will do anything for that person, you will lay your life down for them irregardless of how they look, smell, what they have said or how much they have chosen to love you today?

What happens when you give all? Are you afraid to try it? Yes, love may be free, but it also comes with a cost, the cost is we have to except that it may contain pain, hurt and rejection, but without those things we would not understand True Love.

Today Love is free to give, how will you love the one you are with? Are you giving them 100%, or are you only giving just enough to get by?
