Love is actions. It is a series of choices of putting someone else first. It is the example that Jesus gave. He always put US first. He was LOVE. "We love because He first loved us." And in a relationship... Love is different. It is different to always put the other person first when in a relationship. I was in a relationship with a boy for 9 months, and had a million gazzilion feelings for him, but we never said I love you to eachother, because we had this belief. I did NOT always put him first, and in high school, neither of us believed we were ready for that kind of commitment at all. Neither of us were ones to throw around the "L" word.

To give an example of my belief, if love is a feeling... when you are very angry at someone, do you still love them? Are you feeling love for them right then? NO. Because you are pissed at them! lol. You are feeling anger. Now, I believe because of the feelings you have for someone, love is easier. But love is never easy. Ever.

Let them ressurect dead threads. Then they're no longer dead. It's like we can ALL be Jesus. Bring those things back to life, revitalized and new. mrgreen

As long as the discussion holds anyhow. xd

Oh, by all means, this thread has new life, but I'm talking about other threads. We made this rule for a reason. stare

Love. Love has many meanings.
But the kind we speak of likely,
...
It is wanting what is best for the other person, even if that means it doesn't include you, but wanting both of you to be happy.
It's a commitment. It's a feeling of desire and contentment.
It can be a deep friendship, it can be a passionate relationship.
What love is, in a particular relationship, often depends on what the people in it have experienced, if they are capable of love, if they have known it yet themselves.
Love is transformational, love is accepting.
Love is there for one another, love is willing to let them pursue their dreams.
Love is paradoxical at times, sometimes it is unrequited. sad
Sometimes it is returned biggrin
Love is.
