Love, Love, & More Love 

Chapter 1

I wrote this book in 2015. I was 33 years old. It has been exactly 10 years. 

I hope you enjoy it. 

I love, love. I wrote this book for the lovers and haters. It does not matter if you are young, middle age, or elder. It does not matter your gender or your ethnic background. It does not matter because we are all born with a natural desire for love and relationships. This book does not focus on love as we see it in the movies or as we think about falling in love with a person, but it is about a pure love and our ability to show it. I am talking about a love on a deeper level. Some people think love is being a door mat. Some people associate love with sex. I am referring to love as it exists among individuals who have lived long enough to experience heart break, betrayal, and heart disappointments. If you are a young person who is dating and learning about love, please keep reading because it is important to learn how to love. Learning how to love is just like our natural development it takes time, experience, and knowledge. I also like writing about love because it is a subject that causes people to either feel extreme happiness or extreme disappointment. It may seem strange, but I enjoy love because love deals with the issues of the heart. The heart is a special part of a person. It functions with the mind. All together they make up our will, emotions, and the feelings we have within us. The heart can feel different emotions and we learn so much about ourselves as we deal with different situations in life. Dealing with the heart and emotions can be chaotic but that is why I am so excited to talk about love and the different complex issues of the heart. I am opening up my heart to you with the hopes that this book opens up some new ideas or even some old thoughts about love. 

Children & Love

Chapter 2

    Your child comes from you. According to scientific research parents play a significant role in teaching their children what is love as well as their child development. Children do not have any idea about how to love or to hate; but they will learn how to love or hate base upon what they learn in their home environment. If you show your child grace they will give grace. If you give them compliments, they will develop confidence. If you belittle them, you strip them of their value. If you never hug them or tell them, you love them they will believe the world is cold and one day they will enter into a relationship, and they will struggle to be affectionate with their spouse. Children will mimic the actions they see. A child can only give what he or she has been taught to give. The bible reveals that if we train up a child in the way he or she should go they will not depart from it when they are older. If that works in the positive, can you image the negative things working in that same way. Picture an adult that refuses to change and they refuse to depart from those bad habits they learned as a child. Parents are teachers. It is up to parents to show their child love through tender kindness, nice words, and a loving touch. As I think about children who are abandoned or even end up in foster care it is predicted that sometimes that child will struggle with relationships in their adult years. As parents we have to be careful to show our kids love. They watch how we speak as well as how we treat others, and they will take note. They watch our behavior more than they will listen to us. Children will avoid listening, but they are always watching. As adults we are living out things we could have learned from our home environments. It is okay to admit to ourselves if we have been successful in love or not. It is no one business but your own but it is a personal question that we can reflect on. Are current relationships successful or not. It is okay to admit to ourselves if we have been unsuccessful in love or not. We can have any love experience we want as we grow, date, and have love experiences. Some people learn from their mistakes. Others are blind to their mistakes, and they continue to make them. But a wise man will admit their mistakes and move on to learn better.
