Love

Love lies at the foundation of the society and permeates unconsciously the thoughts, aspirations and hopes of mankind. Love is glorified as the source of the most admirable productions of art, of the sublime creations of poetry and music; it is accepted as the greatest factor in human civilization, as the basis of the family and state. Love is the greatest conqueror, it is as strong as death...it is rather foolish to believe that this life exists on anything less than love.
Here is this pertinent question,"what is the true meaning of LOVE?"...
"True love gives meaning to life and makes life worth living". It is love that keeps us alive, since it alone makes life lovable. It is love that saves, and love itself must be saved. There is but one happiness in life: to love and be loved.
Whether or not life is worth the pain of being lived, or, rather, whether it is worth the pain and the pleasure of being lived depends on one’s capacity for love.To have no love at all defines unhappiness, only souls that love and are loved are happy.

"True love does not lie", it covers a multitude of sin,gives beauty for ashes;strength for fear;gladness for mourning and peace for despair. If we speak all the languages of men and of angels and do not have love, life becomes only a sounding brass and a clanging cymbal...The need for love lies at the very foundation of human existence. It results from the profound interdependence we all share with one another...
In genetics, love is tender, caring and fair but always in distress crying for pity just like the mother. Like the father, love is bold, enterprising, strong, a mighty hunter, always weaving some intrigue or another , keen in the pursuit of wisdom and fertile in resources. Love is neither mortal nor immortal but alive and flourishing at one moment when in plenty and dead at another moment when all hope looks bleak...

"When you love someone, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you".
"When people love you, the sound of your name is different and safe in your ear".
"When a girl puts on a perfume and a boy puts on a shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other, that is love".
"When you go out to eat and you allow people to take most of your french fries without making them give you any of theirs, that is love".
"That thing that makes you smile when you are tired, that's called love".
"When mommy makes coffee for daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him to make sure it is okay, that is love".
"When a couple kiss at all times and when they are tired of kissing they still want to be together and talk more, that is love".
"That thing in the room with you at Xmas when you stop opening presents and listen to the quiet room, that is love".
"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt and he wears it everyday".
"Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still pals long after they have known each other too well".
"Love is when your puppy licks your face after you left it alone all day".
"Love, as small as it may be, conquers a battalion of Hatred".

You don't say 'I LOVE YOU' unless you mean it, but sing it aloud when it comes from within so that people don't forget.
If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend you hate.

Always remember that two kinds of love exists; our love and God's love. But God, the ultimate source of all things made them both.

"It is love that saves, and love itself must be saved. There is but one happiness in life: to love and be loved". The very words of one who has loved and is loved.
