Love Is...

bright_arrow · 04-26-2012, 09:40 PM

Love is waking up together, but then you fall back asleep and she takes the dog out of the room so it does not trample you.. Then comes back in an hour to wake you back up, dog in tow

Love is her bringing the car to the shop door when it rains, despite my constant protest of "I'm not going to melt!"

Love is lingering kisses, and staring into each others eyes

Love is cooking dinner together and sharing the clean-up

Love is looking over at your partner sleeping and thinking "Damn, I fucking love her like crazy"

Love is being interrupted during a makeout session by a puppy who wants some loving too!

Love is a cat sitting outside the tub while you shower 'serenading' you.. and I use that term loosely LOL

Love is thinking about adding another furbaby to our household once we move into the new house, despite her special needs..She pulls at our heart strings, and Phoebe would love a play mate (http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/22306924)

Love is a constant state in which I live.. Annoyed, sad, mad - all it takes is coming home to her, and I am happy

(Okay, sometimes I have even grumpier says and have to vent first.. but then I am uber happy

)

Love is......for no particular reason, several times a day saying to yourself.....OMG I love this woman <3

Love is...

Telling her I got a small watermelon today but don't have what to carve into it with and her reply being... "See this is why we need to live together. I have knives for watermelon." That makes perfectly good sense. Why didn't I think of that? lol

Love is in the actions, not the words. Love is making it happen, whatever it is, love is being together.

Background: I screwed up my back.... Almost healed and I did it again...

Me: baby, I need help
her: what do you need
me: my socks and shorts

Love is the girl putting them on me so I wouldn't hurt so much and be comfortable

girl_dee · 07-27-2012, 08:09 PM

Love is the day in and the day out, the morning coffee (even when i overflow it) the easy and the tough, the daily dirty laundry, the chores, scraping chicken poop off of the stoop...the tears and the laughs, the hard days and the fun times.. watching the sunset together, the fairy lights, the girl's swing..the music.. the critters...walking around the land holding hands knowing this is ours, our home, our life, our future, whatever that brings...

Love is seeing, hearing, feeling; being seen, heard and felt.

Spirit Dancer · 07-28-2012, 01:24 PM

Love is......Knowing hard limits and trust.

ruffryder · 07-28-2012, 07:41 PM

Love is the weather of life.

Love is when you and I become one.

Love is the sweetest poison ever.

Love is not free. The price is your heart.

Love is about trust, happiness and compassion. Love is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance, and buidling confidence. Love is about what you say, what you mean, and what you do. Love is about seeing people for who they are and not what they have. Love is about choosing to use your Life to touch someone else in a way that could never have been achieved otherwise.

Loving with your whole heart always, not just when it's convenient to you.
Seeing the light even when times are hard.
Working out problems.
Adapting and compromise.
Loyal above anything else.
Showing what you can give, not what you can benefit from or take.
Thinking of the other person in everything you do.
Caring about *our* future, not just *yours*.
Appreciation.
Not selfish.
Making her smile when she doesn't want to.
Letting her know how good she is when she can't see it for herself.
Guidance and support.
Appreciating all the little things you adore as well as the ones that drive you nuts and being able to smile at them all.
Being smart enough to know what you have, and making sure she knows it every chance you get.
Not giving up just because the road gets bumpy.
Finding the good and letting go of the bad.
Sharing your lives together.
Loving beyond faults and forgiving the past.
Honest even when it's scary.
Eternal not fleeting.
Seeing and appreciating what you DO have and NOT constantly thinking about what you don't have or could have etc...
Not always looking for the next best thing out there.
Hard but worth it all.
It's the most beautiful gift you can give or receive.
Taking chances.
Waiting for the right person, not taking what's *there*.

Final note, sometimes love is looking at you in the face, are you wise enough to see it? A lot of the time we tend to pick and choose, I think that is human nature (to a degree), but if you can slow down a moment and look closer...see the bigger picture, chances are you just might see your soul mate has been there with you all along..waiting for you to figure it out.

I could go on but you get the idea.

Love is.. ..when you dream of dancing in the rain...

Blade · 07-29-2012, 11:20 AM

Love is...pruning

Together pruning things from your life as one, that don't fit with the Masterful plan.
