Love is.

Are you in love? I am.

What should I do to show her that I love her?

I want to show her that when she suffers, I suffer. When she is in pain, I am in pain. When she is happy, I am happy.

I want to tell her that she is beautiful. She is beautiful.

The more I speak to her, the more I learn about life. I learn about confidence, tolerance, love. Especially love.

What does it mean to love someone?

Love is to wish for one to be happy, regardless of the pain or consequences it takes to make this person happy.

Love is to choose to be happy, regardless of misfortunes.

To love someone, is to have faith in one's self.

Love is never jealous. Love is selfless.

To love someone is to step out of personal comforts--personal barriers.

Love is liberation of self.

Hate divides. Love connects.

Love is divine. One in love is close to God.

"To love another person is to see the face of God."

Love is to choose to see the beauty in another--to look past imperfections.. To choose to see her loyalty, her integrity, her trust, her faith, her compassion, her understanding.

What is beautiful about two people who love each other? The more she loves me, the more I change. I lose imperfections, because she chooses to look past those imperfections.

People aren't born with the ability to walk, to talk. They don't know how to write, or read. They don't know how to hate.

However. People know love.

  1. Thank you for your thoughts on love! I couldn't help but notice the line you borrowed from "Les Miserables." That story, by the way, is an excellent treatise on love. I'm happy for you and for her. She is lucky to have your love!
