Why Save a Best Friend when you have a lover? A lover, assuming that it to be true, is a person one can and should be devoted to without exception. The reason for this is that a lover tends to become one with the person in question. They, almost literally, spend every waking moment together; a personal sacrifice one must give in order for the relationship to stand. This personal devotion stems from the book of genesis as the woman and man are one in the name of God’s blessings. Therefore, the love between a man and woman, considering that love is a relationship, is that of God’s love towards mankind directed into one person. Because of God’s relationship with man as that of mutual understanding, then that mutual understanding must be devoted into a person that manifests God’s love in the view of the observer. If every person indeed is the image and likeness of God, then the person one must love is the epitome of God’s image in a person, therefore giving man a chance to express his love for God in a more physical manner.
