The Decision
I am sure that people are chasing something,
a fleeting thing that at times seems to have wings and fly away every time we get close to it.
It is a powerful thing,
It is a shy and frightened thing.
It is a beautiful and comely thing.
We must have it,
We crave it,
We desire it.
And yet for all of our endeavors,
For all our attempts to obtain it,
Very few of us ever have the pleasure of calling it our own.
Still, it is the one thing in this world that every human being,
No matter what we are or where we come from,
Must try to have.
It is universal,
It is LOVE.
We must understand,
That love is not a warm, fuzzy feeling that comes over us,
Nor is it a magical or spiritual connection between two people.
Love is a decision.
A decision that we make within ourselves.
In order for us to have love in our lives,
We must all make that decision.
The problem is that many of us are indecisive about everything in our lives,
And that can be a death blow for love.
The one thing that everyone needs and desires is a beautiful and fragile thing that can become rock solid and steadfast.
All it needs to be yours is one thing...
That is a decision to give and accept love.
