Nothing is more simple and more terrifing than to write the word "love", word that lives in us and beyond us in a primordial and pure unity, word that means death and life together, eternity and nothingness, total sincerity, absolute abnegation, a word that is a way to Heaven or Hell. Word indefinite, but however a word that can be defined, a synthesis of some terrible contrasts like Fiery frost and freezed fire, love is a simple thing and a deep thing: it is an act of life and not an illusion. Love is the centre of the Univers. All things gravitate arround it, all our acts, our feelings are influenced by the power of love. More words have not been written about any other aspect of our being. No topic is more misunderstood. Search for your answers amongst these prose and perhaps you will discover what has eluded all before you: "For it is the intrigue of love that drives us forever forward, giving us our reason for being. Love give us life, and for the blessed many, life gives them love."(Anonymous) A human being conceives different types of love: for family, for friends (a strong feeling of caring about someone, especially a member of your family or a close friend), for God, for ourselves, for nature, for animals, for certain objects, but, in fact, when we first hear the word "love", we think of the romantic meaning: a strong feeling of liking and caring about someone, especially combined with sexual attraction. Does true love exist? a relative question for our mind and especially for our soul. "Nothing human is good enough to be loved, but every decent human being has some capacity for loving". "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails." ( I Corinthians 13:4-8a (NIV)). Love is best seen as devotion and action, not an emotion. Love is not exclusively based on how we feel. Certainly our emotions are involved, but they cannot be our only criteria for love. True devotion will always lead to action - true love. "To love means stop living for yourself, make all human feelings: fear, hope, pain, joy, pleasure, depend of only one person; it means plunging into Infinite, giving your life to one person in such a way that you can only live and think to make her happy." "To find relief in painful tears, pleasure in sufference and sufference in pleasure, that is to bring together all the contradictions." "Love is not art or science: it is an instinct of the soul." True love only exists for those who belive in it, who know how to appreciate it, how to prove it and how to make it grow. We can tell a a lot about love, but with all things known by the human mind we will never be able to decipher the real meaning of the word "love".Somewhere there's someone who dreams of your smile and finds your presence in life worthwhile so when you are lonely remember it's true somebody somewhere is thinking of you...
