Love is Love
Love like a flower has a fragrance you can breathe it in, or just pass it by. Whether you are close, or far away, it is the same with love, because like the flower it is full of perfume and therefore sharing its fragrance with everyone. Some take the time to breathe in the fragrance and see for themselves the beauty of the flower. Love like a flower is always, fresh, and alive. When thought comes to understand itself, then inwardly you are completely silent and love like a flower unfolds, and the fragrance fills everything and flows through everything.
Love is the light of the Soul, in which all that is perceived is truth - also the fire of the Spirit by which all that is base is transformed into good. Love exists at those levels where we touch the true nature of things...
Love and magic have a great deal in common. They enrich the soul, delight the heart. And they both take practice. -- Nora Roberts
Love is but the discovery of ourselves in others, and the delight in the recognition. -- Alexander Smith
Love is something that flows through me from the sacred one. I have to be careful about how close I get to some of the people I love. Especially if they have a weapon in their hands.
Then there is the whole thing about the call to reproduce which disappears at a certain time in a woman's life. It is a lot easier to see men clearly now...............................
Answer:
Nooooooooooo

There is a confusion in this statement , the madness of the love you are talking is basically lust at the beginning of a relation , it makes you act and do things you other wise wouldn't do , but this period or epoch of love is necessary to establish the initial bonding of two people , this will in time transform , into two directions : the two can't tolerate each others idiosyncrecies ,and the relation will terminate with each one going in it's own direction , or it will succeed and the mad love will give way to a caring love that will hopefully have the basic necessities that are , Attention, Acceptance , Appreciation , Affection and Allowing .Then grate love that has no madness will develop .

It would be too narrow to define it that way. If you would look at Mother Theresa's life, she gave willingly without expecting returns. What is her mortal gain? Did she benefit from what she's doing? Did God grant her immortality just because she gave her love willingly? Now another fact to consider is would a sane person do that? Give up all his money and wealth just to serve humanity and those who need help? I don't know about you but I would say no. I would say there is a little madness in love but then isn't it the inexplicable nature of love which makes it so powerful? Haha something else for you to think about.

Maybe to start with, when the hormones are racing! For some couples that have stayed together a lifetime, it wasn't even like that to start with, but they claim that came after they got to know each other.
After that, love is very steady. Mostly. True love is nothing negative. It is enduring, and even long suffering, though that is not a popular idea today.
It's kindness, patience, understanding, and supporting one another in everything that we do.
Values like never putting each other down, and not staying angry endur for a lifetime.
Course, that wasn't really what ya were talkin' about, right?
I think you are talking about the lust stage, really? But I wouldn't underestimate it, there can be love with it.
Just don't mistake a plastic flower for a true rose!

Well, No. Because even if when you really love someone, you'd give your life for that person, you still have some common sense. And if you are mad, then you don't have it. So for example, if the person you truly loved, was a murderer, only someone that is madly in love would follow. But you don't have to be madly in love to REALLY love someone.

Love is the reason one gets married.
Learning to like your partner is the reason you stay married.
Been married 36 years and she is my best friend.
Love hell that went out the window as soon as the lust was over.
If you are young you will not believe this but you will learn. Sex gets old and if that's is all you have keeping you together. Go ahead today and get the divorce papers ready.

The line from Tales of Orlando translates: What is the first sign of madnes? Seeking another and getting lost, for love is just so!

You bet. Think about it when you are in love you let someone else contol your emotions when your lover is upset you get upset, when your lover is sad you get sad so on and so forth.
Madness has got to be the only way to descibe losing control of your emotions.

I believe you have infatuation, an aspect of unconditional love confused with unconditional love.
