Love is an intimate part of who we are as human beings. It’s the ebb and flow of our very existence. And when that flow is interrupted by such challenges as fear, disappointment, hurt, separation, and grief, we tend to run away from the one thing that gives us strength. We sometimes forget that love will never disappoint us, it won’t hurt us or separate us or cause us to be afraid. In fact, love is the only thing we can truly count on.

Have you ever had something to say but was kept silent by a secret that only your heart knew but refused to tell? Well, Darius did.

Have you ever felt locked away while on the inside your heart was wide-open? Well, Darius did.

Have you ever felt unknown and yet longed to be known? Well, Darius did.

And have you ever been so in love with love but was frightened by its presence? Well, Darius was until the day a star from heaven fell into his arms and rescued him from all his fears. With her boldness, she intrigued him; with her kindness, she invited him in; and with her love, she changed him forever.
