How often we have heard this phrase, “Love is blind”?
In a group of friends, we had a lot of jokes on this expression. Since many of the lads have never been in a relation, so when they see a decent guy with a girl who is beautiful, they say “Love is blind”. 😀
For me,
Love is blind, when we don’t care how a person looks or how annoying they are, all we do is Love them unconditionally. 🙂
Here is a small story I came across,
Few days back in a cold foggy morning, I saw two people sitting next to each other outside the center court of the coffee halt. They look just like some other girl and a boy on this planet. But there was one uncommon thing in those two people sitting together. They were constantly facing towards the bushes, with one hand together. 🙂 They never faced each other.
The air floating around had some good content of water molecules which turned everyone’s breathe to fog. And just like a little kid, I was enjoying my winter smoking that way. 😛 The place was quiet & I was looking in the same direction where those two people were looking at and waiting for my cup of coffee to come, all of a sudden I heard, “I Love You” from the boy. Within seconds I heard, “I too” from the girl. ❤ That brought a smile to me. 🙂
Just then my coffee arrived and I was still smiling. Serving the coffee the server asked me, “What’s special sir?”. I replied, “Good to hear the word Love in this cold morning”. He saw me looking into that direction and replied, “They cannot see each other, they are blind. Sir” and he walked back to court.
I still had a smile but with a thought on what love really is! It is not looks, it is a feeling which you never had before. It is a feeling for one another.
On that very day, I realized the true meaning of “Love is blind”. 🙂

If God had wanted us to make all our decisions on relationships solely on some other basis than using our sight He would not have given any of us a pair of eyes. However, the basis of what you are saying is correct. We must make our most important decisions about people on more important criteria than how they appear. I would be sad not to have my eyes. I’m always searching out beauty because I’m an artist at heart. I always look deeper than just surface, however. I like what you wrote. It’s very thought provoking.

This story about those two blind people was very touching to read, A, and the way you described them displayed your sensitivity toward others. It seems to me that the eyes of the heart of that couple had been enlightened in a certain sense so that they could see (read love) without their natural eyes involved. You wrote,
For me, Love is blind, when we don’t care how a person looks or how annoying they are, all we do is Love them unconditionally. 🙂
Yes, exactly, that is the way it should be, but is it always easy? As for me, I know that I cannot love unconditionally without God’s help – ever, but with Him, the impossible things become possible, finally. Regarding the blindness of love, I was reminded of a longer article by T.A. Sparks of which I think it goes well with your post, Therefore I decided to paste an excerpt on here.
Love is as far removed from blindness as heaven from earth. “Love is blind”? No – not true love. The fact is that true love sees everything, but transcends everything. The love of Christ for His disciples was not blind love that did not know His men, love that was duped, deceived, misled, but eventually found out that they were not the men He thought they were. No, “he… knew what was in man” (John 2:24). His love saw everything, could tell them beforehand exactly what they would do; but love persisted in face of it all. Love is a great seeing thing. If you are consumed with a burning love for the Lord, you will be very quick of scent as to what is doubtful and questionable. You will not need to be frequently and continuously told when a thing is not right. No, love for the Lord will bring you quickly to see and to sense there is something that needs to be adjusted. You may not know what it is at the time, but you have a sense that all is not well. Love will do it. All the instruction in the world will not bring you to it.
http://www.austin-sparks.net/english/books/001273.html
May Love guide us all – in everything.

I loved what you shared about the blind lovers, A. Oh, what perfect lovers see that goes beyond the frequency of mere light! True love sees deep into the heart of the one who is loved and only beholds the beauty there, the beauty of that person’s love for them. This kind of love is so great that even when we feel something they did and it triggers an offense in us from an old wound from others, we say in our hearts, “No, this is not possible that my lover would mean to hurt me. It must be my reaction to an old hurt that I am being reminded of,” and then with God’s help we deal with that so that it does not get in between us and the one who loves us so much, again. Of coarse this is not possible without the perfecting love of God in our relationship. I know of such a love as this and I am soooo blessed to know another who dwells in it too.

A,
What you wrote about love not caring what another looks like, this goes to the heart of me. Having Cerebral Palsy, it’s hard for me to tell when someone isn’t taken by the fact I take a little longer than most because I move slower. But through friends and family, I see how God loves. Because while we look at outside appearances, he looks at the heart. And through those in my life, he continuously shows how he is patient and kind and loves me fully, even with it.
Thank you for writing this. 🙂

I am glad that it made your heart feel with positives. I am very happy that you have friends and a beautiful family which loves you for what you are and not how you appear to be. I know its hard for you to be with Cerebral Palsy but somewhere you’re cured with love and care. God has its eye on you which has a glitter for good.
From the time, I became a teenager one thought that has always been along side me is, that looks are just mere packaging done by god, what all reside inside that packaging is what matters.
You’re one of your own kind and you’re the best and beautiful heart. *Hugs around* 😊
Take care!! Smile.
