Love is patient, love is kind
-- 1 Corinthians 13:4-7
There are times when we are timid and shy about expressing the love we feel. For fear of embarrassing the other person, or ourselves, we hesitate to say the actual words "I love you." So we try to communicate the idea in other words.
We say 'take care' or 'don't drive too fast' or 'be good.' But really, these are just other ways of saying 'I love you,' 'you are important to me,' 'I care what happens to you.'
We are sometimes very strange people. The only thing we want to say, and the one thing that we should say, is the one thing we don't say.
And yet, because the feeling is so real, and the need to say it is so strong, we are driven to use other words and signs to say what we really mean. And many times the meaning never gets communicated at all and the other person is left feeling unloved and unwanted.

Robert Frost's - The Road Less Travelled
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveller, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference

sometimes, you gotta learn to love what's good for you
However i find this rather meaningful.
In the movie "New Moon", Charlie Swan: Can I ask you something? Hanging out with Jake seems to take your mind off things for a bit, doesn't it? You know sometimes, you gotta learn to love what's good for you, you know what I mean?
Maybe time to start reading again..

Burnt Biscuit
Mom liked to make breakfast food for dinner everynow and then. And I remember one night inparticular when she had made breakfast after along, hard day at work. On that evening, mom placeda plate of eggs, sausage and extremely burntbiscuits in front of my dad. I remember waiting tosee if anyone noticed.Yet all my dad did was reachfor his biscuit, smile at my mom and ask me how myday was at school. I don't remember what I told himthat night, but I do remember watching him smearbutter and jelly on that biscuit and eat everybite!
When I got up from the table that evening, Iremember hearing my mom apologizeto my dad for burning the biscuits. And I'll neverforget what he said: "Honey, I love burntbiscuits."
Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy good nightand I asked him if he reallyliked his biscuits burnt. He wrapped me in his armsand said, "Your Momma putin a hard day at work today and she's real tired.And besides - a little burntbiscuit never hurt anyone!"
You know, life is full of imperfect things.....andimperfect people. I'm notthe best at hardly anything, and I forget birthdaysand anniversaries justlike everyone else.
What I've learned over the years is that learningto accept each othersfaults - and choosing to celebrate each othersdifferences - is one of themost important keys to creating a healthy, growingand lasting relationship.
And that's my prayer for you today. That you willlearn to take the good, thebad and the ugly parts of your life. Because in theend, you are the master ofyour own life, to be happy or unhappy, to bepositive or negative. We could extend this to any relationship. In fact,understanding is the baseof any relationship, be it a husband-wife orparent-child or friendship!
"Don't put the key to your happiness in someone else's pocket - keep it in your own."
So Please pass me a biscuit, and yes, the burnt onewill do just fine ......
