Does love outweigh common sense? Time and time again we hear people say follow your heart and not your mind because your mind will get you in trouble. The mind can sometimes be a playground for lustful ambitions, but will also allow you to rationalize situations. There are two different types of love. You have God’s love and you have love for man, but if you can’t distinguish between the two, you will definitely be lost. People know love, but do they have common sense to know that no matter what, love is God. We lack the knowledge to understand where love really comes from and that if you lack common sense to love yourself, how can you love someone else?
Love is stronger than any gravitational pull on earth.
Love is not supposed to hurt, but the lack of common sense to know that this is not the situation for you leads to heartbreak and pain. The foundational characteristic of love would be to not just understand your worth, but yet the Value of your worth. Let’s say your heart is gold, a precious metal. It will never lose its value and be considered an asset until you devalue it. You sell your soul for money and materialistic things that add no value and fail to realize what’s truly important. When you drive a new car off the lot it depreciates. The value of paper money fluctuates. Moral of the story, we tend to allow others to devalue your worth, when we lack common sense.
Successful relationships require you to complete each other rather than compete with each other. Reflecting too much on past relationships leads to failing to notice what’s in front of you. Love requires action, vulnerability to accept, and commitment to do it unconditionally. Love is the creative ability to see the need before it even occurs.




God's love is agape love. Man's love has strings attached. You have to be perfect in the relationship or risk losing their love and affection. There's a lot of people who choose not to be in loving relationships, because it requires them to be vulnerable. They instead choose to be situationships while reflecting on past relationship hurts and failures. All while leaving behind pieces of their Soul with every "situation" they have been in.
