Welcome to Blackmail - Colm's blog. I am a Relationship Educator so I will be writing primarily about relationships. However I will venture into other territory as well.
Recently I attended a concert by Beth Neilsen-Chapman. In one of her songs she had these words: "All that matters when we're gone, All that mattered all along, All we have that carries on is how we love."
Love - a word which trips off the tongue and is easily spoken. But love is not easy. It requires us to be tough, compassionate, forgiving, determined, courageous. It is a choice we make not an emotion we follow, for love changes with time. Yes, the emotions are invloved, but only after the high of the emotional phase can real love begin and that is where choice comes into play. We chose to love and that is shown in our actions towards others. Without love, we are nothing and what we do counts for nothing.
