the cross

The heart is an insufficient symbol for love. Love is not all about good feelings and emotions. The way I love others; love brothers; is not the same as when I say I love chocolate, or that I love napping. It is too shallow. Romanticizing gives us a view of love that is too good to be true. And then there is the cross. A symbol that represents sacrifice for others. A symbol that is about forgiveness for all the horrible things in this world. The cross shows us that there is suffering amidst love. And although it is tough, and it is hard.. it is worth it. I don't ♥ you, I †  you
