Love is a Many Splendored Thing was a soap opera which aired on CBS from September 18, 1967 to March 23, 1973.
The show was a spin off from the original 1955 20th Century Fox movie. The title of the show was sans the hyphen used in the movie's title.
The show focused on lives and loves in San Francisco. The opening sequence of the show, in fact, was the title of the show superimposed over a picture of the Golden Gate Bridge, with a slightly reworked organ rendition of the movie's signature hit theme. Soap writer and creator Irna Phillips was hired to adapt the movie for television, picking up the story some years after the end of the film.
In the beginning, the star of the show was Nancy Hsueh, but since her character was deemed too controversial, she was phased out within the first year.
CBS censors balked at an interracial love story between a white man, Paul Bradley (and later, Dr. Jim Abbott) and an Amerasian woman (Mia Elliott, played by Hsueh). Phillips explained to censors that such a story would be necessary as the Mia Elliott character was the daughter of Korean War veteran Mark Elliott and Dr. Han Suyin, born out of their love affair from the original movie. When they still refused, Phillips quit the show.
That was not the only time the show courted controversy, however. One of the characters, Sister Laura Donnelly (played by Donna Mills, Veleka Gray, and Barbara Stanger), tried to fight off carnal desires she had for a man, a move that proved to be very controversial and ended up necessitating the woman to leave the church due to this conflict. Mills, Leslie Charleson and Bibi Besch played sisters. Charleson played the older sister, Iris Donnelly Garrison, and their conflict over the character Mark Elliott (portrayed by Sam Wade, David Birney, Michael Hawkins, and the late Tom Fuccello) brought the show strong fan devotion as well as a spike in ratings.
Other actors who appeared on the series and would go on to greater fame in daytime or primetime included Beverlee McKinsey, Andrea Marcovicci, Constance Towers, Judson Laire, Susan Browning, Vincent Baggetta, David Groh, Ron Hale, Paul Michael Glaser, Stephanie Braxton, John Karlen, and Michael Zaslow.

Love is any of a number of emotions and experiences related to a sense of strong affection or profound oneness.[1] Depending on context, love can have a wide variety of intended meanings. Romantic love is seen as a deep, ineffable feeling of intense and tender attraction shared in passionate or intimate attraction and intimate interpersonal and sexual relationships.[2] Love can also be conceived of as Platonic love,[3] religious love,[4] familial love, and, more casually, great affection for anything considered strongly pleasurable, desirable, or preferred, including activities and foods.[5][2] This diverse range of meanings in the singular word love is often contrasted with the plurality of Greek words for love, reflecting the concept's depth, versatility, and complexity.

Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. Love does not demand its own way. Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged. It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.

Love is like handing someone a gun and have them point it at your heart and trusting them never to pull the trigger.....
Love is risk
Love is undefinable
Love is infinite
Love isn't really blind, it only needs glasses
Love is patient, kind, does not boast
You'll know it's love when the hardest thing is to say goodbye
A few meaning of love but the true meaning is alot more complex and vast and no one has measured the exact meaning.

well... its hard to describe what love is. I am 21 years old but still, I never have a girlfriend before. Only a feeling to like certain girl.. and when I want to propose.. it screwed up. Hear what I want to say... you will notice when you are in love, like you care about her much. thinking bout her all the time. If this happened to you.. quickly propose to her or else someone will get her. Believe me... its really hurt when you lost someone that you in love with.

It's the wisdom of a fool and the folly of the wise. A temporary insanity curable by marriage. The only fire for which there is no insurance. Where love is no room is too small. Without it our earth is a tomb. It consists that two solitudes protect and touch and greet each other.

Believe me, you will know when it happens. If there is any question in your mind about whether you are in love--then you are NOT in love.
