Love is not a feeling.


Love is not a feeling.

Love is not "you look beautiful today".

Love is not sex.

Love is not expensive gifts.

Love is not good morning texts.

 

Love is actions, not words.

Love is holding back her hair when she's throwing up. 

Love is loving the person even when you hate them.

Love is commitment. Love is work. 

Love is helping the other be successful, happy, and the very best person they can be.

Love is sacrifice. Love is the pain and the hurt and the joy.
