The essence of love cannot be reduced to a few words. But it has been observed that authentic love is unselfish and ecstatic, meaning that love goes outside of itself to others.

Love is meaningless until it is defined by two people who love each other.. It is a mystery that is only to be unlocked by the heart and not the mind.. No language of man can say what love is, but if you look into the window of the soul and feel the beat of a heart therein lies the language of love..

When it comes to love of people, love is complete acceptance of who a person is.
As for all other things, love is anything cherished and everything that makes me feel like I'm oh-so indulging, like kissing my boyfriend, eating cupcakes, playing the piano, or napping.

Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bears all things; believes all things; hopes all things; endures all things. (1 Corithians)

It is the opposite extreme for fear for a person, the full moon and stars in dark space, it may be of a kind as universality (conceptual), individual (real sensible) and particular (chosen identity).
