A deep attraction to and a desire to physically love a member of the opposite sex.or a strong feeling of caring for another person or pet.
Some of us will never know the love of another because we are not attractive .
We only know of the love from our parents and family .
But that`s enough for me.

Love is Jesus coming to this earth and dying for my sins. The way that I can show love is to put others before myself and tell as many people about Jesus as I can. Love means having compassion on others and not judging anybody. 1 Corinthians 13 is a good summary of how love should be.

Love, to me, is something more than words. It is a deep feeling that you have for a person beyond their mistakes and flaws. It is the immortal emotion and devotion you have for them. It is the unconditional state, and the feeling that you'd love them no matter what. It is the feeling you have for a person that just goes beyond the universe.
Your love is also something you can let go of. If your love does not care for you back, you still love them. If they don't love you, and they leave with someone else, you love them. You don'r get jealous over minor or major things. It is the whole conception of care beyond words.

Without a doubt, true love is appreciated wherever we go. The love that can make a real difference in life is that described by the Bible writer Paul: “Love is long-suffering and kind. Love is not jealous, it does not brag, does not get puffed up, does not behave indecently, does not look for its own interests, does not become provoked. It does not keep account of the injury. It does not rejoice over unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.”
Yes, “love never fails.” Love heals. Love unites. Love is shown not just by words but by unselfish actions. Love has a pure motive. Paul also wrote: “If I give all my belongings to feed others, and if I hand over my body, that I may boast, but do not have love, I am not profited at all.” If we make sacrifices or give gifts just to be seen by others, then from God’s viewpoint it is in vain.
Jesus put it this way: “When you go making gifts of mercy, do not blow a trumpet ahead of you, just as the hypocrites do, that they may be glorified by men. Truly I say to you, They are having their reward in full. But you, when making gifts of mercy, do not let your left hand know what your right is doing.” Yes, love does not boast or brag.
What Is Love?
One description of love is ‘a feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, a warm fondness or liking for another.’ It is a quality that moves people to work for the good of others, sometimes at great personal sacrifice. Love, as it is described in the Bible, involves both the mind and the heart. The mind, or intellect, plays a role because a person who loves does this with his eyes open, recognizing that he and other humans that he loves all have weaknesses as well as attractive qualities. The intellect is further involved since there are those whom a Christian loves, sometimes, perhaps, against his natural inclinations, because he knows from his reading of the Bible that God wants him to do so. Still, love basically comes from the heart. Genuine love as it is revealed in the Bible is never merely intellectual. It entails deep sincerity and full emotional commitment. 1 Peter 1:22.
People who are selfish at heart are rarely capable of a truly loving relationship because a person who loves is prepared to put the interests of another ahead of his own. (Philippians 2:2-4) Jesus’ words “there is more happiness in giving than there is in receiving” are especially true when the giving is an act of love. Love is a powerful bond. It often includes friendship, but the bonds of love are stronger than those of friendship. The romantic relationship between a husband and his wife is sometimes described as love; however, the love that the Bible encourages us to cultivate is more enduring than physical attraction. When a couple truly love each other, they remain together even if a physical relationship is no longer possible because of the infirmities of old age or because one of them is incapacitated.

To hold another person as being more important than yourself. To do for that person before you do for yourself. To be willing to lay down your own life to protect that person.... Jim

love is putting yourself aside and the other person first. the bible says to lay down your life for someone. i use to think that meant to die for someone, but i think it is harder some times to live for someone. i think to love someone you want the best for them, you see their full potential and do everything you can to help them achieve that. you don't tear them down. you forgive them. you don't own them, you let them go. you see the inner beauty. you are their best cheerleader. you go the distance. it is not selfish. or arrogant or proud. it is not jealous. it does not have ownership. IT is kind and patient and it is free.
