I don't know whether to thank you, or puke, or cry.

You frustrate me to no end.

I guess you have to define what the concept of true love means to you. What you look for in someone and what is important to you. What values you praise, and if you see all that in someone and they feel the same about you, I think its LOVE

AWWW that is sooo sweet.

I remember someone once said it the old org chatroom..

When an orger disappears and doesn't come back
They've found true love.

I say "true love finds u...when u least expect it" however, my hubby says "true love swallows" u be the judge

if i find it i will let you know...

Will you marry me, rio?

When you have found it, you know...you feel it, you live it..and you never find yourself doubting its existence within you or within the one you share true love with...and quite often, its description and definition goes beyond any words you can come up with...you simply appreciate it and live it, never questioning whether or not it's real--you know and feel it is--and you feel it wherever you are...and whatever you do...

...and...

I think if a person is looking for love, then she will find it. If it doesn't appear right away, she must keep looking. If love doesn't meet her expectations, she needs to throw the expectations away. Love is there, somewhere. We just have to change every idea or perception that blocks our awareness of love's presence and we'll find it...

And I almost forgot!

Acknowledging and appreciating love in various forms is important, not just romantic love! Love between family members, friends, love for humanity in general, for your pet who loves you unconditionally, towards a small child you see doing something adorable and you get that flash of intense, painful, heart-squeezin' love that goes through your entire body...

What can I say that has not been said before. How can a word like LOVE be described as so many people have different views on things?

And then TRUE LOVE.

That is just meeting someone with the same spiritual vibe as you. Someone who's love is as forthcoming as the love you yuorself offer...

Had it once. Did not last though. Cuz people grow or shrink all of the time. The hardest thing is finding it and then KEEPING it. Cuz it needs tending, work; HARD work...

Suntanned, windblown
Honeymooners at last alone
Feeling far above par
Oh, how lucky we are

While I give to you and you give to me
True love, true love
So on and on it will always be
True love, true love

For you and I have a guardian angel
On high, with nothing to do
But to give to you and to give to me
Love forever true

For you and I have a guardian angel
On high, with nothin' to do
But to give to you and to give to me
Love forever true
Love forever true

When I can't think straight and she's always in my thoughts.
When her presence makes your heart pound so hard your neighbors are asking you to keep it down.
When you feel that you could just hold hands and sit together, without saying a word, and never feel bored.
When you can be mad at her no matter what.
When her smile makes you melt.

A few people have asked me why do I fight so hard for the one I believe is my true love.
My answer was very simple:
Everything in life is temporary. The place you work, the house you live in, the people around you. but if it's true love, then it is forever, and that's why it's worth fighting for more than anything else.

What IS true love? i dont think u ever know 4 sure, as so many things can change along the way. u just have to go with your feelings and HOPE it lasts. enjoy it WHILE it lasts. i dont think ANYONE should ever say "forever".but if u find yourself lovng that person MORE & MORE as time goes on, and u want 2 keep pleasing that person, making them happy, feeling content in their presence, as well as when your apart as a seperate individual, being there 4 them, and not only to build them up but tell them when they r wrong, when u dont mind giving up certain things u love to please them, when their happiness is as important to u as to them. most ppl, myself included, never reach these very difficult acts of "true love", but if u do, u wont need to ask what it is. you'll know. it also has 2 work both ways, even tho one of u ALWAYS loves more than the other.
