They Say Love is Blind

They say love is blind. I disagree.
infatuation is blind, love is all-seeing
and accepting.
Love is seeing all the flaws and blemishes
and accepting them. Love is accepting the
bad habits and mannerisms and working
around them. Love is recognizing all the
fears and insecurities, and knowing your role
is to comfort. Love is working through all
the challenges and painful times.
Infatuation is fragile and will shatter when life is not
perfect.
Love is strong and it strengthens
because it is real.
