what is LOVE?

“ Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it meaning.”

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres.” 

 1 Corinthians 13:5-7

Some say it's mysterious, magical, complex, difficult, imaginary, thought-provoking, inspirational, intuitional, joyous, immeasurable, ecstasy, and indefinable. Perhaps it is.

      But REALLY….

                       what is LOVE?

…is it those times you never want to leave … is it that first kiss, or the first time you held hands... is it those special places you visited and had the time of your lives… is it those deep talks that you wouldn’t have with anyone else… is it those moments you looked into each other’s eyes and hoped it would never end… is it those times you went on adventures together as if you were dreaming… or the fights that were always resolved… is it the times you cried and always knew you had a finger to catch your tears… is it the times you wrote letters, and always knew you would get one back… Was it real? What did it mean? Is it still there?

         But REALLY….

                         what is LOVE?

Love itself is a universal experience. Yet, every individual occurrence - while perhaps bound by a common thread - seems absolutely unique. Love is what love is! To everyone it expresses itself differently.

There is no fear in Love; but perfect love casts out fear.

1 John 4:18

You must understand whether "what is love" can be a question which can be answered? Love cannot be a question. For, if it is a question then an answer should be there. If the answer is there, where is it? Then an answer should have been found by now! If the answer has been found, the question would have disappeared.

             But REALLY…
                                                   what is LOVE?

… the question still remains, meaning the answer has not been found. If it has not been found as yet, then what is the certainty that it will be found? Maybe the mind can never find the answer!

"One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life:

That word is love."

"Love is like war: Easy to begin but hard to end."

How do you know it’s love? How do you know it was real? Was it there… will it be forgotten? Will you always feel it? When does it end? Did it even start? 
Does time REALLY heal?



                      But REALLY…
