Love or Infatuation

Infatuation is an instance desire. It is on set of glands calling
another. Love is a friendship that has caught on fire. It takes root and
grows - one day at a time.

Infatuation is marked by a feeling of insecurity. You are excited
and egar but not genuienely happy. There are nagging doubts, unanswered
questions and pieces about your beloved that you would just not examine
too closely. It may spoil the dream.

Love is quiet understanding and mature acceptance of
imperfection. It is real. It gives you strength and grows beyond you -
bolster your beloved. You are warmed by there presence, even when they
are away. Miles do not separate you. You want them nearer. But near of
far, you know that they are yours and you can wait.

Infatuation says, "We must have each othe right away. I don't
want to risk losing them." Love says,"Be patient, don't panic. Plan your
future with confidence."

Infatuationhas an element of sexual excitement. If you are
honest, you will admit it is difficult to be in one another's company
with unless you are sure that it will end in intimacy. Love is the
maturation of friendship. You must be friends before you can be lovers.
Infatuation lacks confindence. When they are away you wonder if
they are cheating. Sometimes you check. Love means trust. You are calm,
secure and unthreatened. They feel the same trust and it makes them even
more trustworthy.

Infactuation might lead you to do things you will later regret,
but love never will. If you have love in your life, it can make up for a
great many things that you do not have. If there is no love in your life,
whatever else there is has a lot less meaning.

Love is an upper. It makes you feel whole. It completes the
circle. It fills the empty spaces in your heart. It makes you look up. It
makes think up. It makes you a better person than you were before.
