Life is not pretty. It poops, it bleeds, it is messy.
Life is what happens off camera, not what the TV shows present.
Changing my daughters diapers isn't glamorous, but it is love. And love is not some bubbly feeling, it is a bond, a commitment, a choice.
10-FOUR! or, uh, I mean, Amen!
It is the loving we do when it's not glamorous, when we don't especially feel like it, that provides the best hermeneutic for TRUE Love, the Love which came down from heaven.
