This blog post is dedicated to a word used often LOVE, but the question resonates “is the action in alignment with the meaning”? Love is used is so many ways but how is it demonstrated from the giver and embraced by the receiver.
Author C Clark Jefferson, shares her experience and observation of Love in her newly released book Love Theories. Love Theories is a collection of eight short stories illustrating how people equate the word love. “Often the word love is misunderstood. People equate so many things with love like money, sex, power, abuse, and revenge” she claims. Through much observation of interaction between a parent and child, friends, husband and wife, & boyfriend and girlfriend she inquisitively questioned if what she saw was actually love triggered her to write Love Theories. As she sat in public places observing strangers in their natural environment, she was intrigued that couples sat at restaurant tables lifeless with minimal conversation, blank facial expressions, where it appeared to be no type of bonding or better yet evidence or substance of love.
C Clark Jefferson reflects on a time when she was in a relationship that had the appearance of love, but as time passed, she desired for the beginning to recreate itself over again. The reality was the relationship was not going back to what it once was. Regardless of the emotional and mental bruises, burns, scars and wounds endured in that relationship, she was inspired to move on to something better. Now let’s pause! How many times have we (ladies) stayed in relationships past the expiration date? How many times have you tried to recreate the “moment you fell in love”? Wait was that love or maybe the smoke screen called lust!
Her perspective on love is if you truly love someone just be sure your actions aligns with what you say. She also believes that true love is accepting a person in spite of their flaws and instead of trying to change them you just help the other person be a better individual. The heart is a very fragile thing, it can easily be broken by someone you know, like, and trust. Before using the “L” word ask yourself is it really love? A lot of times we love conditionally and not unconditionally. Guys I highly encourage you to pick up the book Love Theories by author C Clark Jefferson.
It is a book that readers in different areas of life can read – recent college grads, couples, singles as well as older generations.
