LOVE-What is it to you?

Love can be defined as many things to different people nod. It has many forms and comes and goes freely, but I think that love is just an unbreakable bond between two people. The feeling of love for another can never be changed "it just is" like Prince said wink . How do you define love? Do you think that it can be defined? If you care to share-what is your most memorable moment of love? I would have to say my most memorable moment was when my son was born and I saw him for the first time heart.

In memory of Captain Chaos, I would like to say that love is usually $50- $200 an hour depending on the girl.

Certain kinds of love, I guess. I'm really just speaking in memory of the Captain. It's not necessarily my point of view. smile

for me, love encompases everything: trust, honesty, respect, security, fear, co-operation, adoration, affection, comfort, support, loyalty, etc...
EDIT: and lust, passion, compassion, desire...

all the components that are required for a healthy relationship equal love for me...
now, depending on the intensity of the love, depends on how many of those components are present...



and then, there's a difference between loving someone, and being in love with someone...

and when you have BOTH of those..it's truly a beautiful thing... mushy

This is so true. Healthy relationships do require all of these things and like you said, unfortunately some get being in love confused with loving someone. Nicely said SammiJ wink .

thanks smile
and just so make things clear, not every well-rounded relationship has to have ALL of those...most do, but people will make what they have work, determination, which i think is the biggest component
if the love is strong enough, the worth of keeping it is so much stronger
and the reward is beautiful

My most memorable moment of experiencing/feeling love would probably be any one of the thousands of times I've felt the connection with my daughter...the first time I laid eyes on her it was overwhelming. heart

My most memorable moment of romantic love...I'll keep that one to myself. rose

heart fallinluv love


The first time I saw my little brother after he came back from the hospital in 1995.


I was so scared as my mom came up the elevator and I saw her holding a little bundle on her shoulder. I was 14.

She went down the hallway and I saw a little peach face with big grey eyes open lookin dead at me. touched touched

I couldnt move! I knew that i would love my little brother forever at that moment!

I cant imagine the love that is of your very own child. I cannot wait for my day


Matter of fact..I had a very strange dream last night...



I was at a Sperm bank where all the celeb's go. falloff
And i was paid like $40 fo mine for some reason. I had to come back later because I 4got my keys.
And I saw in the office a woman saying yes I would like that one as she went in2 the room pointing to a pic of me. I ran in the door to find her, but she wasnt there anymore. LOL!!!!

That's not an easy question for me at the moment.

Truly respecting the other one's core and dreams, and your own, and make the positive energy that flows from this combination stronger.

Something like that.

IMO, true Love is always an outgoing emotion.

Love is a never-ending fuel supply that originates in every human being's heart with which we all have the choice (will) to tap into or not.

For me, if I'm ever feel lonely or sad, that is the universe's way of reminding me of this, which means it's time for me to go out & do something for some-one else. Whether it be surprising my girlfriend with flowers or some such, checking in on my elderly nieghbors, calling a friend with the intent of listening more than talking, planning the next step for cause I'm involved with, etc..
The feeling of being "unloved" is a reminder that it's time to be more loving.

I remember some-one once saying, "To fill your heart up with Love, just empty it assisting your fellow man. You will find that your heart refills itself up instantly."
For myself, this is great way not only to put some perspective on the "problem" of lonelyness (or any other self-induced form of negativity), but also to experience the unlimited supply & power of the Love that resides in us all.

love this is better than the index cards! (sorry Byron! mr.green )
so true, when I had a baby I thought I might run out of love! But I had an infinite amount of it so I kept having more kids neutral which might not have been such a smart move financially, but they are so loved, and their daddy? well horny
