Lovers call it by many different names, its defined differently and uniquely by each and every person. Matrimonial ceremonies claim that love is not jealous or boastful. Love is not a gourmet dish, a domesticated animal, or a latest trend. Love is not a strategic defense mechanism nor the best kept secret at the Pentagon. Love is not a seasoning to bottle and stick on the dust lined shelves of the spice rack. Love is not to be confused with adhesive tape.
Instead, love is a great counterpart to late evening thunderstorms on hot July nights. Love goes well with cold pizza on picnic blankets. Love is cold, wet sand between bare toes. Love is a capitalistic sell-all for novels, top 40 pop songs, summer movies and greeting cards.
In its simplest terms, love is a four letter word. Much like other words of similar letter make up, when expressed it can evoke pleasure, desire, tenderness, laughter, pain, and anger. Love is food for a happy mind. It is kindness, devotion, or affection to another. Love is the most wonderful experience in the world, yet it can hurt you more than anything, physical pain hurts less. Love is sacrifice. Love is quite good if shared between two with trust and understanding, and at the same time dangerous.
Love is so hard to define because its felt, expressed, and viewed differently by each and every person. We all come to know love over time though, the good and the bad side, one way or another.

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." - 1 chrinthians 13:4-8

Love never dies...
When you love someone, your heart is with him or her forever.
Love is just wanting to be in his or her presence
Love isn't about the physical aspects of a relationship
Love is about a strong foundation of trust
When one can talk to his or her companion about anything
Love is the ability to communicate
And the ability to be alone without being tempted to become physical
Love is an amazing respect for one's companion
It's knowing how far to go without crossing boundaries.
Some say that love has no boundaries,
But love is a boundary in itself
Love is binding one to one other person
The words "I love you" have become unimportant
Those three words are extremely overused
And have become hard to believe
If one wishes to prove one's love,
Then he or she should show his or her companion.
Not by being physical,
But by simple romantic gestures
Don't decide if you love someone right away
Let time pass before you say those three words.

Love is an emotion...
it is an emotion that you feel not only with your mind but your body as well. The feeling can make your heart feel like it is bursting with joy or breaking from pain.
For each person feels love differently--each in their own unique way. Though the symptoms above are usually universal extremes.

Love is feeling your heart soar, evertime you are near her. Love is feeling your heart hurt everytime you are away from her. Love walking with her side by side through good times and bad. Love is still looking into her eyes 60 years later and realizing how lucky you are. Love is knowing that all of those feelings are returned in no uncertain terms and lasting a lifetime.

Love is when you care about a person more than others, love is when you get this feeling in your stomach that you never get, love is when you cant stand being away from that person, love is when you just click the first time you meet!
Hope that helped!

Love is a deep, tender, ineffable feeling of affection and solicitude toward a person, such as that arising from kinship, recognition of attractive qualities, or a sense of underlying oneness.
Thats How I explain it!

It's what you feel in that moment when you find yourself becoming happy by going out of your way to someone else happy.
It's when everything seems bland until you see that one person and then everything is better.
It's when someone holds you and you feel somehow stronger and weaker at the same time.
Love is everything.
