Love is...Acceptance that loving another involves loving the whole person with all of their imperfections.

In my dreams I'm always with you.
Love is hope. Hope is faith. Faith is trust. Trust love. Wait for the one you can't live without. YOU CAN'T SEE IT, BUT YOU CAN FEEL IT. Love is amazing.... You find it in people you least expect to. And see it in people you often reject. How often do you find love when you're not looking for it? But you know you've found it when your knees turn numb. Love is something some people try to ignore, They are afraid of loving and what it opens their heart for. Love is something some people try to find, And when they find something close to love, they fool themselves sometimes. Love must be a coincidence, or an unexpected event, A surprise in its happening, and heaven sent. You must not rush it or plan the road you wish it to lead, Let the feeling take its course, in any way it needs to. You'll know when the feelings there, and when its completely right, From there on, just let that feeling go, totake you to an unreachable height........ If love is... not a game, then why are there so many players? If I had a rose for every time I thought about you, I'd be sitting in a garden~ When in search for that perfect bloom we often misss the smell of the roses. Kiss me and you'll see the stars... ..Love me and I will give them to you Theres a sparkle in your eye that only I see, and theres a place in your heart where only I want to be. Unknown

I have a story similar to the one that started this thread. I am a nurse, and several years ago I worked on an Alzheimer unit. The husband of one of our patients would come every day to feed her breakfast, visit with her, and feed her lunch. She was in end-stage Alzheimer's, nonverbal, and had no sign of recognition that she knew who he was...and yet every day, without fail, there he was. He would talk to her, sit with her, feed her, and every day tell her he loved her. He told me the story of how they met...at a dance on a naval base. They met in January, and he married her that June. He said she was the love of his life.
One day we had a blizzard, it was a state of emergency and the local news channels were warning that no one should be out on the roads. I was sitting at the nurse's station and to my surprise, I looked up and saw him walk through the doors. I said to him "Mr *, what are you doing out! You shouldn't be driving in this weather!" He just looked at me, smiled and replied "Well, I couldn't leave my girl alone now could I?" That is love

Love is a verb, not just a noun. Most people think of it as a noun. But it is like the word seat. You sit on a seat (n), or you Seat the customers. One is a word describing something the latter is the action of putting people in their seat.
When you say I love you to someone, it is a verb in that sentence. Its the actions you make. Things like giving a massage to ease their pain, celebrating special days, and even just working on the relationship talking. They are all actions that show love. Everything you put in the category of things you do FOR that loved one to Show your feelings. Love just isnt some vague undefined feeling that there are never enough words to describe... the feelings are different for everyone so the dictionary references as a noun are only a foundation basic explanation. Love used as a noun is subjective and interpretation is different for everyone. So if it isn't something you can touch like a seat... how is it real? For me it is because Love as a verb is factual. Tangible. Really easy to prove because as a verb, the actions are the proof. You experience it as it happens outside of one's mind and in the real world. Love as a verb is what makes love real. If its not a verb, then when it is used as a noun we would all think of it (world wide) as a FICTIONAL or Mythological thing. Most of the world can recognize a fictional character or make believe item like invisibility cloak of Harry Potter for example. Author imagined and not "real". Maybe the subject and plot had realistic aspects, it was make believe by Rowlings and she gets paid a lot of money too I might add. Love is not supposed to be in this category is it? Love is a verb for me.

"Love is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it...It really is worth fighting for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk everything, you risk even more." - Erica Jong

Love is letting go
Love is looking back, and realizing it really wasn't worth it, and being ok with that. That is love of self. |

Love is simply that...
Meaning.. When you are love... Truely loved... when you love... Truely love.. then nothing changes that.. time distance communication It doesn't matter, if you see them, speak to them.. It still exists.. Love simply is...

"Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being "in love" which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Your mother and I had it, we had roots that grew towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossom had fallen from our branches we found that we were one tree and not two."
-St. Augustine |
