Hey, Shannon - love is understanding...and a lot more.
Humans - like all animals - have to do certain things to survive. The simplest way for nature to ensure that these things happen is to cause us to like them, to want them. Would any animal procreate if sex was unpleasant? Would they eat if it caused discomfort? Of course, it is possible that some didn't like these things - but those would have dies of starvation, or not passed their genes on to future generations. People are the same - we just need some different (or extra) things - like love, respect, understanding...
Life is a search for love, but love is the search for life, not just existence. Without love, we can exist, but we cannot truly experience all that life has to offer.
Wishing you luck in your search, like the luck I had in mine!

we'll were not really supposed to do anything, other than what makes us happy. So if for you being in love is what makes you the happiest then yes that is what your supposed to do. But for me i'd have to say it's the pursuit of knowledge, and being the best (physically/ mentally) person i can be, as cliche as that sounds. More or less reaching my full potential.
Also johnny's smart, and people need to keep god and philosophy seperate were not all ST. Augustine, ok . God is not the answer to everything

Life is sort of like a search for God, and when we find Him we find love. We also experience God's love in a small way with the people we meet and love in this life.
Life is about getting to Heaven. What a journey that is!

Roy Glen is right, and , so are you!
Life is love! We were created by love, and our real nature is love ... of life, of being, of God maby. Not just romantic love... love each others being too, we all live in the same state of 'being', and it is remarkable.
Even when life seems to hurt, it's part of the love!
With love,
Grandpa Jonnie
PS You're just supposed to love back. Answering your question ... I hope.

The true meaning of life to me is to worship God and follow his Word. Without Him and His love for us, we would not exist.

To me, life and love is the same thing.

No. Love is part of life, the best part of our lifes.
Someone said this (is it Hugo?), "If life is like a flower, then love is the honey." [ It translated from Chinese ]

I'm not looking for love. Understanding, yes.
