love believes the best

Do you remember how you and you husband were like when you were still just lovers? When people would criticize him or say bad things about him, you immediately come to his defense with a litany of all things good and honorable about him.

The truth is you could both be right. You’re looking at the same person with different perspectives.

But your perspective is that of love.

Some people say that love covers all flaws. But I’d like to put it this way:

Love chooses to focus on the best and celebrate goodness.

Loving someone doesn’t mean you turn completely blind to his faults. What it does mean is you act and react with more understanding and compassion.

You separate the attitude from the person and you help however you can to help him deal with his imperfections.

What do I love about my dear Kernie?

  1. He’s very understanding of my quirks and my occasional weirdness.
  2. He’s patient. Very, very patient.
  3. He’s thoughtful. He remembers the things I love and surprises me with little gifts that make my heart jump.
  4. He’s considerate. He always checks how I am and if he could, he would make things easier for me.
  5. He’s encouraging. He always knows the right words to say when I feel down.
  6. He’s supportive. No matter what I venture into, he’s always right behind me cheering me on.
  7. He’s funny. He’s corny most of the time, but he makes me laugh
  8. He’s affectionate. He always showers me with hugs and kisses.
  9. He’s hardworking. Sometimes more than I’d like because he stretches himself too thin. But that’s his nature.
  10. He’s responsible. The best father in our world.

But more than all these, he  loves me unconditionally. He accepts me for all that I am and brings out the best in me.
