LOVE

LOVE

Of all the forces in the world, one that is most powerful is love. Love is not just a feeling, it is a force; it is not just about emotions, it is sacrifice. Love is the force binding people and relationships together, it is the basis of peaceful coexistence in communities and societies the world over, it is the unseen cord that binds people together.

Love exist between different people in different forms, there is no form of love that seeks to harm any one, or that is damaging to anyone in any way. Anything that brings hurt, injury, or damage is definitely not love but something else. Love towards any person or people should be unconditional, conditional love is no love, but a relationship of mutual benefits.

In a letter to some Corinthians , Apostle Paul wrote plainly some of the characteristics of love, He said, "Love suffers long, and is kind; love envies not; love vaunts not itself, is not puffed up, it does not behave itself unseemly, seeks not its own, is not provoked, takes no account of evil; rejoices not in unrighteousness, but rejoice with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes in all things, endures all things. Love never fails..."

Love towards others is not expressed through words of mouth alone, but revealed in actions and deeds. We must seek to love and show it to all. The only way to having a better world is to love everyone around us, and show it to all irrespective of race, colour, sex, religion, and social status, LOVE is the true essence of humanity.
