Love | often confused w Love Ain't
Due to the nature in which love flourishes, it is often compared to plantlife. Love is not a Strangling Vine or philodendron, however it'll grow steadily & deeply if nurtured & properly cared for. Neglected love wilts & fades, similar to the lawn in your back yard. If the lawn looks greener on the other side of the
fence, remember y'own lawn was just as vibrant once (but you watered the neighboring gr-ass). See: Rose colored
glasses . Also keep in mind, you built the
fence yourself.
Love can't be trimmed, cut back or, shaped into what you think (s/he) should be. If you
lie,
cheat, ignore, shut out, put down, insult, degrade, criticize, constantly fight, see only their faults, flaws & imperfections .... that? Love ain't.
Love requires warmth, positive/supportive & environment. Shallow dirt is not a proper habitat for love to prosper; after 7 years, love's roots still won't connect.
Suck the
soul out of love & it will surely die a natural death.
As with
plant species, love goes by many names. It's besth to
Google a certain
plant to find a blethora of aliases. True origins are often unknown. Ie: Venus flytrap is said to be native to Planet of the Apes, doubtfully a sincer8 planet considering the dense population of greedy cheetahs.
Shirley "I fkn love Antonio's guts. From the depths of my
soul, to my fingertips. I can't explain it. He can put me down, criticize me, call me names, stand me up, tell me what to wear and not to wear, embarrass me in
front of my friends, accuse me of things I'm not even capable of doing .... But at the end of the day I will always love him."
LOVE AIN'T -
Betty : " I love how we get so drunk together &
don't even remember how we got home"
Ruby: "I just love this pizza! It's so spicy. '
Phyllis: what are you f****** insane? You're a f****** idiot! I told you what to say! I even told you how to say it? You must be an imbecile ... I
bet you can't even call
Uber."
Mrs. Folgers: "I love the way I tell him my body is beautiful then buys my drinks."
