Adoration is an endurance sport
played in the quiet intervals
between the grand gestures.
It’s the recurring revenue of the heart.
We are not struck by a bolt;
we are built by a thousand small "yeses"
whispered into the teeth of a "no" world.
To cherish is to choose.
To choose is to live.
Repeat until the end of the chapter.
Love is not a monument carved in granite,
but a garden requiring a daily weeding of the ego.
We often mistake the initial spark for the permanent flame,
forgetting that even the sun
must rise again every single morning
to prove its devotion to the day.
Commitment is the recurring subscription
to another’s complexities.
You don't just "have" it;
you do it,
over and over,
until the doing
becomes the fabric of who you are.
