Never Say Goodbye.

Genuine love

is a 

covenant

that

never

says

goodbye.

*

Goodbye:

escape,

leave,

disappear,

abandon,

neglect,

ignore,

quit,

give up,

disconnect.

These are actions

birthed by 

a particular 

decision-making process.

And

the common denominator

in these words is

its 

decision maker -

Feelings.

When 

over-considered,

feelings 

hurries our feet

to walk out on

Genuine Love.

When 

over-valued,

feelings

pulls us away into

the wrong places

at 

the wrong time.

*

What we

feel

always changes

because

our surroundings

keep changing.

Feelings are

unstable,

fluctuating,

fickle,

inconstant,

and according to the Merriam Webster,

'traitorous,

unfaithful,

untrue,

disloyal'.

The strength of 

Genuine Love

is completely different.

It is the opposite of

goodbye.

Genuine Love 

doesn't change.

It is

steadfast,

continual,

durable,

devoted,

steady

faithful,

loyal.

*

What I feel

is 

just about 

me.

When I consider

my

feelings,

I'm just concerned about

myself.

And if

I

matter most to me,

Genuine Love

cannot exist in me.

Genuine Love 

takes two or more,

never just

one.
