Love is indeed mysterious. I'm glad it comes into my life; or else, I still wallow in selfishness. It makes me give generously to my beloved; just as God has generously showered me with blessings because of His love for me.
Indeed, we need to reflect on ourseleves everyday. This is the way in which we know what are our shortcomings along the way. It is good to dwell on our victories but we need to know our limitations because they will put our feet on the ground; they make us humble. The victories that we have would not be there if there's no help from above. Our limitations would also necessitate us to have visioning day by day. We need to submit our plans to Him for afterall, He alone can take us to the right path.

Love has its time. When I married my wife, I know that her love for me is greater than my love for her. She is far from being perfect; but her sincerity covers all her limitations. Thus, she is perfect for me. Now I can say that our lover has leveled up. They're now equally intense.
