Love is a condition or phenomenon of emotional primacy, or absolute value. Love generally includes an emotion of intense attraction to either another person, a place, or thing; and may also include the aspect of caring for or finding identification with those objects, including self-love. Love can describe an intense feeling of affection, an emotion or an emotional state. In ordinary use, it usually refers to interpersonal love, an experience usually felt by a person for another person. Love is commonly considered impossible to define.

The Greek word agape (love) seems to have been virtually a Christian invention -- a new word for a new thing (apart from about twenty occurrences in the Greek version of the Old Testament, it is almost non-existent before the New Testament). Agape draws its meaning directly from the revelation of God in Christ. It is not a form of natural affection, however, intense, but a supernatural fruit of the Spirit (Gal. 5:22). It is a matter of will rather than feeling (for Christians must love even those they dislike -- Matt. 5:44-48). It is the basic element in Christ-likeness.
Read 1 Corinthians 13 and note what these verses have to say about the primacy (vv. 1-3) and permanence (vv. 8-13) of love; note too the profile of love (vv. 4-7) which they give.
James Packer, Your Father Loves You, Harold Shaw Publishers, 1986.
What is love?
Asks the child untouched
Whose mother's hand he clutched
His tender heart knows only Trust
Feels only love, knows not of Lust.
What is love?
Asks the blossoming soul
Questioning her life's role
Struggling to separate
Infatuation from love's fate.
What is love?
Asks the youth enlightened
Remembering passion heightened
Wondering if is was an act of Love
Or if not approved by those Above
What is love?
Asks the united one
Whose ring reflects the golden Sun
Hoping it will last forever
That they will always remain Together
What is love?
Asks the furrowed face
Moving at a withering pace
"It has remained all around me.
To its treasure I've not found
The key."
What is love?
I cannot explain
It includes extremes of
Happiness and pain
I will never understand love's
Many hues
Yet I will always know that I
Love you...
Anna Smith - Lind High School, 1993.

Love is different for everyone. But I hate seeing the hollywood version of love. You can't be in love until you actually know the person, and it's been more than like, a day. You have to spend a lot of quality time with them, and by quality I mean lots of talking. If you don't know if you love them or not, then you don't yet, you might be in the process of falling for them though. You will completely know when you finally love them. Plus, love is an action word. You can say you love someone, but if you're not actively trying to make them truly happy, then it's not love.

LOVE is the most overused & abused word in the English Language. The same word is expected to convey personal feelings regarding a brand of soda, sports teams, movies, family members, members of one's own gender, members of the opposite gender, members of questionable gender, animals of all sorts. food of all sorts. People 'LOVE' television shows, People Love People, People love Objects.. People object to People loving Certain Things and bring a moral battering ram to back up their contention that People should not love certain things. Love is everywhere - - - it is in the flowers reaching for the Sun it is the wolf baying at the Moon. Love can be intence it can be offensive efusive energetic electric. Love simply is Love. Peace.

LOVE is a decision you make to stick by someone forever no matter what..... LOVE is when everything you picture is with that special someone..... LOVE is that divine feeling that makes you feel great even if you wanna cry...... LOVE is when nothing else can make or break your day.... LOVE is the closest thing to perfection we humans have got......

Love is not just feeling. It comes from past life relationships. It have combinations of sex, culture, religion, your education, etc. But not only sex. Sex give some -pleasure to love. cos of love people deeply learn about people & own mind. Love is in mind. Love happens what we give promise to one mind to another mind in particular life among our infinitive past lives. When this promise become steady, both partners meet every life time. When we meet love we can reomve selfishness of mind & give our help to another one. Love sepaerate us from parent, relations, friends, etc. Love is like meditation which we focus our mind to another mind.
