A quest for the true meaning of love

What Is Love?

What is love? What is love if there's no patience? What is love if there's no kindness? What is love, if all that there is is envy and jealousy? What is love in the midst of pride and pomposity? What is love in the midst of toxicity and chaosity? What is love in the midst of unforgiveness? What's love when there's no peace? What's love when evil reigns and rules? What's love when all the sins of men are laid bare? What's love when all that exists and matters is self-gratification? Can love exist in the midst of all these? Can love thrive? Can it suffice? Can it remain? Can love stand the test of time? Can love be the opposite of all this negativity and even more? Can men love one another? Can they do so effortlessly, unconditionally? And will they? What do you think? I put it to you🫵

Inspired by 1 Corinthians 13:4-7
