I would like to hear.
What our creative minds
call love.
What is it.
Can we prove it is real.
How do we express it.
Tell me I need to be reminded I feel down and want some hope!

Love is what you feel when you do something out of utter desperation only to hear your wife scream "I can't live without you" That's my reconnection to love. I hope I explained that correctly...

Love is giving of yourself to another person or animal in an unconditional way as to not expect to be paid back or congratulated. With a smile on your face, while doing so.

Just my opinion.I have been married for going on 16 yrs together for 17.I do not think I actually found out what love was until about yr 5.LOL.I think you have to have gone thru the lust stage and the honeymoon stage and even get thru a I don;t know why I married this person stage
then when you are sitting at the table eating beans for the 3rd day in a row and have to make it all week on 10 dollars and can still say"I love you" and mean it....you are in LOVE.LOL

Love is the essence of understanding yourself, the essence of accepting yourself, the essence of being at peace with yourself and enjoying the life you have been given. When I accomplished this, I could truly love another. It isnt always easy to love yourself but I know it can be done because I have done it. Hugs

Some Love is ultimate joy and pain wraped into one! You cant figure out where one begins and one ends.

Other love is constant, supportive, and brings us peace of mind!

Another is unconditional love. I think that is one of the hardest to find and then keep. But if you are blessed enough to find it you have reached a high most will not find.

Also there is the love of a parent to a child I think it has all three componets. Theres a quote that said "to have a child is to forever wear your heart on your sleeve" I have found that true for me as a Mom!

Just my Thoughts!!

Love is my pets, I love they more than anything in the world and they have given me nothing but uncondtional love. They have gotten me through some nasty depression and been here for me when I had nobody. That's love.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
