Why does love have so much power over people?

Answer 1

that's just the way it is

Answer 2

Love doesn't have power over people. Love is completely freeing and accepting of all a person wants to be.

Answer 3

I feel love have so much power over people because it's a mind thing. You put so much in it and sometimes get of little out.

Answer 4

Love is one heck of a hard thing to explain or theorise on. However what we do about it is that it can't be seen, tasted, touched, smelt or heard, its just felt. It has no boundaries and no limitations and no conditions. Its just there surrounding us in different forms in different ways. We either accept and acknowledge it or refuse it. Either way we feel some amount of pain and thats one assurity of love, with it comes pain. I think by believing in love thats how it manages to have that hold or power over us. Its a wonderous emotion and should not be taken for granted for often it is the one thing thats assured in this world of chaos.

"Love your neighbor as you love yourself", the greatest commandment of all is LOVE

Matthew 22:34-40

But when the Pharisees heard that He had put the Sadducees to silence, they gathered themselves together. And one of them, a lawyer, asked Him a question, testing Him, "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?" And He said to him, "'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the great and foremost commandment. The second is like it, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' On these two commandments depend the whole Law and the Prophets."


Love brings all the goodness... and it brings out the best in an individual, even pets.

Hello zorro in my bed,
I am laughing to myself - your question has an answer in your nick-name!!!!!

OK, love is embedded in the hearts of people to work upon, multiply it by millions, share it with as many people as you can and it develops into a wonderful thing, expressed by yourself as POWER.

Love is understood differently by individuals - some express it in delicate ways, others use it physically only, others emotionally only, others embroider all these elements together to produce a marvelous pattern throughout their life-time.

The power that love produces leaves an impact on the individual that encounters it. Infact there are many people who get hurt with the power of love. Other get cured. Others relieve their suffering, etc, etc.

I augur that you embroider your power of love in a beautiful pattern that would satisfy your needs, and creates a marvelous opportunity to the one who opts to share it with you.

Good Luck
