Love Looks Like Wal-Mart





Two things happened today:

1. I went Mother's Day Shopping and those tasks are complete.
2. And I got my heartbroken. But I did it myself.

Before
I allow anyone to use me for even benign motives.
Before a toxic situation pollutes progress.

And...
Before words become a reason.
I
WILL
GIVE
UP
And that's just what I did. Gave it up.

God has been this good: he's given me enough discernment to determine a dead-end. Wherever a road ends, generally there's no civilization beyond it. Where there is no civilization, there is no life.

So you must Look.
Listen.
Be Aware.
Turn around.
And get back on track.

I truly thought I was in love.
But was only imagining.
Love doesn't look like desire.
Desire implies lack.
Love is perfect.
Whole.
Complete.
Love looks something like Wal-Mart.
Much of what you need... is right there.
