HYGIENE IN LOVE

 

Love is an affection. It’s that strange feeling that binds us together. Your feelings about someone or something should be crystal clear. Just like glue binds two edges together in clarity, we are supposed to do the same. And being clear means simplicity, humbleness, and purity. The combination of the three aspects fosters a strong and steady bond between people, characterised by affection, as well as in how we perceive things.

You say you love someone or something, but your intentions are impure. How then can you be accountable for your actions? When we discuss hygiene in love, we examine actions, words, attention, health status, communication, and connection. What is it that you do well to embrace love? You can’t be stingy with your actions and expect more from your partner. If you show respect and honour, then your partner will be ready to reciprocate. Don’t expect disrespect to change its colour when your turn comes. It’s like a two-sided sword, cutting on both ends.

When you say, “I love you,” you should mean it. It brings meaning when you do exactly what your mouth utters. The heart is an organ, yes, it is, but remember, breaking it is a deed carried out by fools who do not know their plans. When you plan on doing something, you should propose to execute it. Remember, love and hate are opposite words carrying four letters, and if messed with, could bring unaccountability and malice. Be wise and choosy with your words; speak positive words to promote healthy living at all costs.

Attention is also an important aspect to consider. It drives into the soul and nourishes its endeavours. The amount of it matters, since it validates inner peace and activates calmness. Quality matters in everything we touch. No, it’s not only in food products, clothing, and building materials. Quality love and affection bring about push and pull to make it happen. If you find yourself bored or low when your partner seeks your attention, then you are sailing in the wrong ship, headed in a dangerous direction. And may sharks find your awful spirit 😂😂😂😂.

How often do you call, text, or even pop in unannounced? Who said we have to plan for a meeting? No, we are not in an official office; here we are purposed to do it the traditional way sometimes. Just show up, even if it means walking in the rain to do it. Just show up; your other half needs you.

You see, that thing you fear will someday come to light. Make a choice, and let it be genuine. Sometimes we do say you fear finding the hidden because of how deep it has gotten. The willingness you had when you started should be the force you use daily. The late-night calls, laughter, and jokes shouldn’t end because he is your husband or she is your wife. Let the light shine.

I have heard of cases where your partner is only an asset when he or she is healthy. But when they get sick, the situation makes them a liability. This negative attitude toward health should be discarded. It isn’t a cool thing to do. It shows how reckless you can be. Remember you swore, “in health and in sickness,” what is it that is making you fail to fulfil your promise? So you’ve become so selfish that you forget sickness is part of us. Yes, it is, darling, and it comes in different angles and shapes. I think this is the time you are supposed to overdo it. Show them the good and nice parts that they have never seen. Be more concerned and help where you can and are supposed to.

Also, remember not to be the reason for his or her sickness. I boldly direct this to those who mess their genitalia and then lie to themselves that they are okay. No, you are not okay, and it’s not only HIV and cancer that are painful. STIs and STDs such as PID and gonorrhea are very painful, especially when infected by those you love. The body is the temple of God, so protect it.

Yes, life takes a turn at some point, but remember the vows, the promises, the good times. Remember, doing the right things lifts your spirits and helps guide you in everything you do. So just do it, no matter what. Tests are there, but that does not give room to step back. A beautiful reflection always reveals a nice picture.
