Love and Other Things

Ironically, the Groom isn't in this picture because he had other duties to attend to.

It’s Valentine's Day, and I'm at the airport in Tampa watching seemingly unattached people and families make their way to and from their final destinations. I can't help but think what love looks like in their lives.

Over this weekend, I was blessed to stand with my cousin as he took his wife's hand in marriage. In between the festivities, last-minute runs to JoAnn's Fabrics to find notions and basting tape, as well as many other situations, the guys and talked a lot about love and life. Some of us are in the process of self discovery, some have wisdoms they've gleaned along the way, some are just not sure of anything anymore, but we're all still figuring it out.

Love is a complicated thing. Sometimes it's easy as getting butterflies in your stomach whenever you see a person. Other times it's hard like choosing between two or more options that are less than great because you know it will benefit someone you care about.

Whatever love looks like it your life, I hope it continues to grow you into a better version of yourself.

Happy Valentine's Day to you all.
