‘To have and to hold from this day forward, for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until we are parted by death.’
As i read the news of the late passing of Mrs LKY and how her husband took care of her all the while, you can tell that the couple were dearly close to each other and it was hard to part. Love – in its simplicity means love no matter what the circumstances are. And you can tell that they both loved each other so dearly, a wonderful marriage through the turbulent times in the early history of Spore’s independence and all the way when she was bedridden. Love simply never changed. And it’s the power of what love can do in marriages. And i guess many can learn from them about love in marriages and love in the family.
The reason why love is so limited today is because many haven’t tasted and grasp hold the whole meaning of love. I don’t believe that the Source of Love made love so complicated. It’s easy in good times, it’s less easier to love in hard times, but i believe the nature of love shouldn’t change no matter what happens. Just as the marriage vow says – for better or worse, for richer or poorer… i guess the greatest of all things you can ever find and treasure in life is love.
The source of Love expresses His love throughout generations, and it’s just that touch of His love that people’s lives become meaningful become changed. It literally can’t be explained in words. And i guess as a recipient of His love, i should learn to be a carrier of His love to others, investing my effort and time in people’s lives. i believe love can spark a change in people’s lives, spark a restoration of broken emotional souls and love can lead many to the Source himself.
You stay the same through the ages
Your love never changes
There may be pain in the night
But joy comes in the morning
And when the oceans rage
I don’t have to be afraid
Because I know that you love me
And your love never fails
~ Your love never fails, Chris Quilala
