We are so quick to put on the trappings of love, hop into bed, break out the champagne, break out the prophylactics. And we are so low on confidence, so unable to trust. So few are worthy of that trust. So love is an undependable word. No wonder people run away from it. It is not enough to say "I love you," once or even a hundred times. No, you have to find a hundred different ways to say and everyone of those ways must be true. They must be a revelation. Say, "You are the best part of me." Say, "My life is dim when you are gone." Say, "I thank God for you."
