(If you want to follow along, make sure to subscribe so you don\u2019t miss a post!) \u00a0 We\u2019re quick to romanticize \u201clove of learning,\u201d but I\u2019d argue that \u201clove of school\u201d is even more important. What\u2019s the difference, you ask? It\u2019s similar to the difference between \u201cloving\u201d and \u201cbeing in love.\u201d Have you ever thought about that? Falling in love is all warm and fuzzy, all fireworks and butterflies. But\u00a0loving\u00a0is something more than that, something solid and unshakeable, like bedrock. Not an emotion, but a choice. The theologian C.S. Lewis paints a lovely picture of this. He says: \u201cWho could bear to live in that excitement for even five years? What would become of your work, your appetite, your sleep, your friendships? But, of course, ceasing to be \u2018in love\u2019 need not mean ceasing to love. Love in this second sense \u2014 love as distinct from \u2018being in love\u2019 \u2014 is not merely a feeling. It is a deep unity, maintained by the will and deliberately strengthened by habit; reinforced by (in Christian marriages) the grace which both partners ask, and receive, from God\u2026. \u201cThey can have this love for each other even at those moments when they do not like each other; as you love yourself even when you do not like yourself. They can retain this love even when each would easily, if they allowed themselves, be \u2018in love\u2019 with someone else. \u2018Being in love\u2019 first moved them to promise fidelity: this quieter love enables them to keep the promise. it is on this love that the engine of marriage is run: being in love was the explosion that started it.\u201d Now, let\u2019s apply to this school.
