PASSION, (The deeper version of Love)

 Most times many have wondered, what is the actual recipe for a successful marriage?

Well there is no one specific or actual recipe as you call it. There are many things that needs to be  in place for a marriage to be successful. 

But the main area of today is Passion, which is one of it. In fact what this blog has been teaching and will continue to teach is how a marriage can be successful. So feel free to check in on any of our posts.

So back to passion. Passion isn't something you just wake up and say you have. Passion grows overtime, it takes effort, it takes patience, careful observation and many more.

Most persons will be like "I thought it was love that was the key to a successful marriage".

Well plenty times, we've said that love is not the key to a successful marriage. Sorry to surprise you. If you even look at the current trend of things in this generation, the word love has been underrated. 

A person can just do a favor for you, and in reply "You'll say thanks I love you" as a compliment. 

Love is seen as a compliment as the way this generation is going, not like how it use to be previous generations ago. Love was considered a very sacred thing then. In fact it was only meant for the adult who were matured to get married. It was held in high value.

Not that it isn't in this generation. It is, but there have been a switch on how it's been used.

So love is evolving, and the way it's used also has evolved too. But the word Passion is the deep rooted version of love.

Just imagine someone saying "I have passion for this lady". How does it sound in the ears. 

There is this deep emotion you feel, most especially when you're around that person.

One major difference between love and passion is time. Love will wear out overtime, but passion is a die hard (last).

Take for example, "You can love someone today, and with time things could possibly change. But when you talk about passion, it sinks deep. Either it's that person or nobody else".

There are actually people like this who exist. They will never trade their feelings. Or simply put their feelings for a person won't wear out, except if it warrants it.

Unfortunately, such persons are not common. And overtime a lot of persons take them for granted. These set of persons find it very difficult to love, but once they love you, its till the end (passion). Except if there is something that warrant a breakup like we earlier stated.

So therefore be on the lookout for passion and not just "I love you".

Let's also note also that

Passion is the genuine form of love,

Love overtime could grow into passion. 

Take note of the word could. It is not a must. Like we earlier stated, passion takes time, effort, sacrifice and careful observation. It is not so easy, and it is not for everyone to have if you choose.

Lastly, Don't expect a return of passion, when you don't give one. 

A Big thank you to Apostle Joshua Selman for this insight.
