When a child is born, the parent’s reaction to this person, who so recently did not exist, is to feel that “I would do anything for her.” In the doing is the love-the feeling is enacted. The first love mentioned in the Bible is not romantic love, but parental love (Genesis 22). You may have very strong feelings about them, you may even believe you cannot live without them, but you do not love them. Since they see love as a feeling, the word hides the truth, which is that you do not love someone whom you repeatedly beat and abuse. Too many women have told me, bruises visible on their faces, that the husbands who struck them love them.
