7. Love is not nice

I love you she said
And I you he replied
As long as you're nice to me
I'll be nice to you

Agreed
So began a transaction some call love
Which lasts forever
Until he stops being nice to her or she to him

But Love is not nice

Love is kind

Love is patient

Love is not self-seeking
Love keeps no record of wrongs

Love never fails

But transactions do

So be nice to her
Even if she's not nice to you
Love without payback
Expect no return
Love her even if she doesn't love you
