~*~True Love~*~

It's not the one that you live with.
It's the one you cannot live without...
It's the one who makes your whole life worthwhile...
Now, THAT'S what TRUE love's all about!
~*~
It's not the one you lay down with.
It's the one you make love to with only a glance!
It's not the one that you dance with,
But the one who makes your HEART dance!
~*~
It's the one you keep going back to
In memories that don't fade away.
It's not just a name on a paper,
But a name you keep longing to say.
~*~
It's someone you want to grow old with,
Whose beauty seems never to fade.
It's the one you want to die with,
That keeps you living, day after day.
~*~
It's not just a passing moment of passion,
This thing that is called true love.
It's a moment that NEVER passes,
That your heart keeps thinking of!
~*~
It's the one I always knew existed,
But didn't know where to find,
'Til God sent me a soul mate...
And said that he was mine...

~I was asked how one knows if what they feel is love or not? The best comparison I can think of love is:
1 Corinthians 13
(The Love Chapter)
1} If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2} If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3} If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.
4} Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5} It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6} Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7} It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8} Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
9}For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10} but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. 11} When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me.
12} Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
13} And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
If it falls within these perimeters..it IS LOVE, & love NEVER fails! ~
