Dear Journal:
When I was catholic, I would read the bible sometimes, as the bible is a beautiful book. To me, it is a book full of philosophy and teachings of how we should live our lives. Of course, some of the stuff in the bible is really outdated, I guess that is why different religious leaders, often have to make some adjustments to their religious rules, based on the things that are written on the bible that no longer apply to this generation. At least that is what I think, but don't take my word for it, I do not study any religion, the only thing I practice is..........LOVE.....I practice love because love is that in your heart that helps you to make the right choices. I am not referring to romantic love, that love sometimes makes you act all sorts of crazy, or at least it has made me act that way in the past. I mean, LOVE as in Love yourself and Love others.
When I went to my cousins wedding last year, the priest read a scripture from the bible that I had heard in the past, but did not know it was from the bible, I always thought someone had made it up. When I heard it at my cousins wedding, I made a mental note that I had to put the verse on my journal because it is absolutely beautiful! my cousin was married nearly a year ago, it took me THAT long to finally put it on here, but the reason why I remembered, was because I had a situation and I needed to make a decision, in order to make the right decision, I looked for the verse and it made my decision very simple. I'm glad I looked for it, I want to keep it on this journal to remind me that LOVE IS AMAZING!
1 Corinthians 13: 4-13
Love is patient
Love is kind
It does not envy
It does not boast
It is not proud
It is not rude
It is not self-seeking
It is not easily angered
It keeps no record of wrongs
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth
It always protects
Always trusts
Always hopes
Always perseveres
LOVE NEVER FAILS
