"The Crying In A Ferrari Syndrome"

I haven't blogged in a while and it is weird that after that while all i could think about was this. A lot of girls and women my age, older and younger have been tossing this line around and using it as a barometer to find men and settle down. " I would rather cry in a Ferrari than Laugh on a bicycle." They say all the time but what does that even mean? Is this some excuse we women have come up with to settle? Are we really this far gone that we have no ounce of hope in love at all that we would measure our worth to some fancy car? I mean for a fancy car you would pledge the rest of your life to a man you don't love, you would settle for crying and misery for just a damn car? What has happened to us? Is this what we are handing our daughters, grand daughters and the whole woman generation? How selfish and unfair is that? These girls will never know love because we have told them to settle for a damn fine car?
This is what i have to say to those people who find some bit of comfort in that statement. People who say this plainly don't know what love is. If they did, they wouldn't put a tag on it and in this case "Ferrari" is the tag. If you've known love you wouldn't trade if for a car. You would know that love is "PRICELESS". I have known love and it is "Jesus Christ". If you feel even an ounce of that man's love you won't settle for that Ferrari because he won't let you. If you trust Jesus enough he will bring you that love even in a man's form and it may never be as perfect as his because we are human BUT he will bring you a man in his own image. I don't care how you classify sadness and tears. Who plainly settles for tears like its an option. It doesn't matter what kind of car you cry in or what kind of house you are miserable in, you are miserable and crying simple as that. You can console yourself all you want but it is what it is. All this talk of love not being alive or existing is bull shit. I serve a living God who is Love itself. He is a Living God people so because he is, Love is.
This is what i will tell my daughter " I believe in Love, I believe its alive, hard to find but alive and the only way i know how to get to it is through Christ alone." Just because we can't find something easily doesn't mean it doesn't exist. You have to dig to find diamonds, we don't find them lying around and pick them. Anything beautiful shouldn't be easy to find.Let us have more hope and standards as women  for it was written "Not one will lack her mate" Isaiah 34:16. If you are to put a price, Let it be Christ. Make him your standard and he won't fail you. Let us give our daughters things money can't buy and that is hope and love(hope in love).

God Bless You!
