'I Love You'

Many Asian soap operas will give you the impression that you only have to say "I love you" to your significant others once in their lifetime on that very important moment, and that would be enough. But between Tim and I, we say that phrase to each other almost every 5 minutes. Yet sometimes in between these five minute gaps, we would ask each other, "Do you love me?" And the other would surely answer, "Yes, I do. I love you so so much." I think human beings need a lot of affirmation and also we forget easily, that's why we really need to be constantly reaffirmed. You will certainly encourage your students, your children, even your dogs whenever they learn something new, but because they're inferior to you, so you feel that power to be the encourager. But why not do it to the people equal to you or even superior to you. Like your spouse, friends or even your parents, your grandparents. Let them know what they're doing right, and show them you appreciate their love for you constantly, so that you won't take their love for granted.
Love is such a fragile thing. Pay very careful attention to it before it disappears!

To all the people who love and are being loved.

This pregnancy has drawn Tim and I even closer together. Sometimes I wonder how that could be because we're already so much in love always. Tim would talk to my tummy every night when he comes home from work. He would always tell me, "Thank you for carrying our child, I know it's not easy. But you're becoming a strong woman, and I'm so proud of you..." Things like that. My heart just opens, and I feel I can do anything by the power of love.

God loves us even more than we could imagine. If humans can love so deeply, I don't know how much deeper our God loves us. Because I am limited, I do not know the answer to my question, nor does anybody else on this earth. But that just makes God so much bigger, and so much more loving. HE IS LOVE! Praise His Holy Name!
