There are
people who make commitments or promises and with everything in their fiber
they remain faithful no matter what. It doesn’t mean that there are no
challenges to being faithful, but its value lies within the heart of the
individual. Faithful people want others to know they can be depended on and that
alone provides the ones they love with a sense of emotional safety.
However, too many of us have known or experienced the pain of unfaithfulness,
especially in regard to romantic or marital relationships. The Good Book
distinctly says that an unfaithful person lacks sense and destroys his or her
own soul. Yet the faithful man or woman often feels like the fool or is called
a fool because they remained faithful during the relationship. However, one is
never a fool who honors love by being faithful to their word and true to
their own nature. I know by experience the piercing arrow of unfaithfulness and
I am determined never to do that to another human being. I walked away with my
dignity and character in tact and have been fortunate to find a new faithful love. I truly value faithfulness
in myself and others. Is it an awesome trait to possess and one most people hope to find
in anyone they pledge their hearts to; including, I hope, their own heart. A fool, you see, is a
person who “acts unwisely” or is “deficit” in character. Faithfulness demonstrates
both wisdom and depth of character, so the question needs to be asked of the
unfaithful: Who’s the “real” fool?
