THE THIRTEENTH CHAPTER
OF FIRST CORINTHIANS
REVISITED 23 YEARS AND 32 DAYS
AFTER THE WEDDING CEREMONY
Love is called for
when there is anger,
impatience or jealousy.
Love is called for
when the other is boasting,
rude or selfish.
Love is called for
when the other is offensive
or resentful or loves it when the other fails.
Love is called for
when the other will no longer
excuse, trust, hope or be willing to endure.
Love is called for
when we have forgotten to use
the gift of the languages of love.
Love is called for
when we are still childish and
we still argue and are angry like kids.
Love is called for
when we’re looking in the mirror
instead of looking into each other face to face.
Love is called for
when we forget the 3 things that last
faith, hope and love, the greatest being love.
