I was pondering this morning.
I love my father, do I love him more than my brothers or sisters? For example, I love my dog. Do I love my dog 50% as my WW. I could not place any value on my love...it's a strange thing. Something as powerful, but sort of elusive in it's value. The love that I have for my friends, family, WW, dog are all different...and hard to define. Ideally, one might think there is an order ie. 1.) WW 2.) Dad 3.) Sisters and Brothers 4.) Friends 5.) Dog Honestly though, the above order does not apply. I love them equally but differently.

I came to conclusion that all people love differently in different ways.
At times I am momentarily able to love a stranger the same way I love my children. It is all relative. I think if you are naturally a loveing person you just love without thinking about intensity or value. It's just there.

There are different types of love.
A Mothers love for her children A friends love to her friends A womans love for her man As Aronia says, we just love without thinking.

In short....no. I cannot place a value on love...my youngest daughter teases me and asks who I love more - her or her sister....I always giggle at the notion of loving one more than the other....I have so much love to give, I can't wait to find someone to give this valuable yet priceless gift to!

Priceless, you are right. The reward for loving is priceless no matter the recipient. Thanks for reminding us of the value, worth, and joy that we receive when we love. The world is a better place to be when we open our hearts. Love to you all.

Good thread...
I think I put things in this order in my head. 1. God, Family, Friends and all. 2. Everything else. I noticed a long time ago that I love my kids beyond reason. More than my own life. I have always been protective of them. Now, as they are older, we protect eachother. The love that I have for my parent's is a different type of love than I have for my kids. Same thing for my brothers and sister. The new relationship that I am in? He and I talked about that and I commented that his happiness is more important to me than my own. He laughed and said he feels the same way - my happiness is more important than his own. That amazed me - the unselfishness for both of us in this relationship. Can we place a value on love? Not really. It's priceless on it's own. Irreplaceable. Growing and evolving all the time. Active. Solid yet vulnerable. All of these plus so much. L~
