Love is patient
One of my favorite movies is A Walk To Remember. The plot of the movie isn't very important to this post, so for right now all you need to know is that it's a love story.
In the movie, Jamie has Landon read the following quote:
Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
(1 Corinthians 13:4)
This is one of my favorite quotes about love. Whether you are religious or not, you have to admit that this quote has power. It describes love in its truest form. It leads me to believe that if love does not bear all these qualities in a relationship, maybe the use of that very powerful word needs to be reconsidered. The quote does not tell us what to do, yet it guides us as to what love is.
What do you think about the above quote? Do any of you have favorite quotes about love? Is there anything we can learn from them?

This would have to be my favorite quote of all time. There's just so much truth in it, it comes from the bible, so I feel that if you follow love this way, then the love will be forever! And I hope that one day I will find this kind of love. Glad that you did a post on that verse!
