When Love Gives Way to Lust


In a modern world, consumed by sex, one does not think of Love.

It is only the minority that still practice love, real Love.

Love is cute dates, Courtship, Kindness, kissing.

Passion is Love, solely Desire is not love.  

In this modern age, these two are confused.

Love and Lust are not a reflection of each other.

Courtesy of Caring and showing Compassion is Love.

Modern men should Cherish the old ways, when Chivalry existed.
