Love is Blind? (a 100 word diatribe)

Bob bristled at Angie’s comment.

“Love isn’t blind,” he said.  “Love sees everything.  Every wart, every defect.  Everything.  Love just accepts all those things and keeps giving hugs.  Love wants to show you that it’s okay to not be perfect, to fail, to do something stupid.  Love is there to be wounded, kicked to the teeth, and spit upon.  That’s why love is considered folly by some and ludicrous by others, but in the end, love wants to see you be the best you you can be.”

“But Charlie is blind in the book,” Angie said.

“But his love isn’t.”

Light of the World (an acrostic poem)

Lifting the handle, Stephanie looked inside the box

It contained a whole lot of nothing

Giggling she closed it and looked at Timothy

“How are you able to afford that?”  She asked

Timothy smiled, “I just saved up all the sun rays I could from the summer.”

 

“Of course you did,” she said.  “I love it!  It’s just what I need.”

Forgetting he didn’t like physical contact, Stephanie gave him a huge hug

 

To her amazement

He didn’t push her away

Even pulled her closer

 

Well the moment was short lived

Or that’s how it felt to Stephanie

Releasing Timothy back into his own world she sighed inwardly

Loving someone like Timothy was easier than people thought

Didn’t this echo how God felt?
