We are emotional creatures. Like it or not, whether you are a boy or a girl, you have emotional needs. And as emotional creatures, we do experience that ‘falling in love‘ state, don’t we?
This entry has been inspired by the book “The 5 Love Languages” by Dr. Gary Chapman and “Fit to be Tied” by Bill and Lynne Hybels. IPraise God for the wisdom that they give through their writing.

There is a state in time when you are ‘in love’ and you set reason and logic to a secondary state. Your feelings and emotions get the upper hand. Suddenly a 1,200 peso bouquet of flowers seem so affordable in light of the girl you like. Suddenly the time you could have spent working on your thesis seem less important than spending time with that certain someone. Suddenly, everything else seems less of a priority compared to your relationship with that person.
Being ‘in love’ spells out an emotion that is so good – it keeps your emotional tank running in full. Unfortunately, this state of emotional being has a limited duration that, according to Dr. Gary Chapman in his book, ‘The 5 Love Languages’, lasts for 2 years at most.Time is something to take into account when you’re in this state of emotion.
I’m not saying that being ‘in love’ is bad. No it’s not. In fact, I find it a good and enjoyable state of an individual’s emotion. Though I do tell people to double-check their decision making when they are in this state
