Ebun this is beautiful. I’ve been thinking about the safety net friendships provide and I love the angle you’ve come from, it’s worth pondering.

It's the fact that I always relate to what you write, Thank you for always speaking to me, for writing just when I need it❤️ God's love for us is the definition of true Love, real love because even when we were still sinners He first loved us!

You’re welcome❤️

God is the greatest example of love because He’s love himself.

This kind of love is often displayed in parenting...

Though the greatest is Christ's love.

Thanks for reminding us of love.

A literal x-ray of how unwilling I am and have been to die. To die for love. Seems I have to start making conscious efforts. I am also of the opinion that them seemingly small sacrificial acts of death are almost far more demanding than the actual death

At least with literal death, you don't have to live with the pain of death

You see the other death for love, it's aching and you're living with the pain and reality of whatever you sacrificed for as long as life deems fit

Beautiful piece. This is the type of vulnerability I like. Not the toxic positivity bullweewee everywhere!
