"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, and it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth."
Love is an emotion that we can easily understand, but its essence is often deep and complex.
Love cannot be simply defined as a soft and warm feeling; it possesses a powerful force that refines and transforms our inner selves. Through love, we can understand each other's differences and form deeper connections.
Love is like sandpaper smoothing out a rough surface. Sandpaper needs time to smooth an uneven surface, and in the process, the surface becomes firmer and softer. Similarly, love involves the process of refining each other's rough edges. In this journey, we may hurt each other, but through those pains, we come to understand each other more deeply and strengthen our bond. Love is a journey of devotion to one another, where we also discover ourselves.
Love is also like the spring breeze that suddenly arrives, breaking the silence of winter. Just as the warm spring breeze blows in, "경칩 [Gyeongchip] " comes closer, awakening life. Love is like a "경첩 [Gyeongchup]," a hinge that opens the closed door of our hearts, leading us to a broader world and connecting us to people.
Love is not just a means of drawing closer, but a process of deep understanding and a link to a greater world. Through love, we are invited into others' worlds and led beyond to a new universe.
※ 경칩 [Gyeongchip], 경첩 [Gyeongchup], is Expressed in Korean for the sake of wordplay.
As the saying goes, "Love is as strong as death, jealousy is as cruel as the grave; its flames are flames of fire, a most vehement flame. Many waters cannot quench love, nor can the floods drown it." Love brings deeper experiences and realizations and moves the deepest parts of our being.
Love is sometimes rough like sandpaper, sometimes soft, warm like the spring breeze, and like a lubricant that opens doors. That is why we long for love and seek growth through it.
