Love

Few days earlier I watched the movie “U, Me aur Hum”. As a movie; it’s worth watching once. I was trembled upon by the dialogues after the hero leaves her wife in the care-taker house and explains his friends about the reasons. He says, in this world we don’t love anyone more than as we love ourselves. So, what we do for our loved ones is because we like it to be done by that way only…

How do we define love? What is love? It is one of the most difficult questions for the mankind. Centuries have passed by, relationships have bloomed and so has love. But no one can give the proper definition of love. Even I have been in love and I am still in love but we (me and my hubby) did not find satisfactory answer to this question.

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. - 1 Corinthians 13:5-7
I read somewhere by someone: "To describe love is very difficult, for the same reason that words cannot fully describe the flavor of an orange. You have to taste the fruit to know its flavor. So with love." How true!!!

Love is a story that can never be fully expressed or it could be a feeling that one can not described.
Some say it's mysterious, magical, complex, difficult, imaginary, thought-provoking, inspirational, intuitional, joyous, immeasurable, ecstasy, and undefinable. Perhaps.

Logic says everything in this world has a cause and an effect. True Love is the only feeling which is its own cause and its own effect. It is something illogical and yet above all logic. I Love him because I Love him, and I Love him so I Love him. Why I love him??? No questions, no answers…Love is really blind. It has no logic. It’s rebelling. It’s a bond of trust, intimacy and harmony between two individuals.
Love is comforting someone in need of Love and having them know that somebody cares. Love is embracing differences and discovering ways in which to build a common lifestyle, share decision-making, and taking equal responsibility for the results.

Love is loving someone without expecting anything in return; no judgments, no restrictions; no limitations; no expectations! True Love is the nature of bliss.
Love must be experienced. Its meaning is infinite and can never be totally defined. Love is expressed when you are being someone who loves someone for who they are, not who you think they should be.

When you Love someone you never ask them to sacrifice a part of themselves in the name of Love. This form of manipulation contaminates our Love for another. True love has a foundation of integrity, respect, faith and trust.
Hence "what is love" is an illusionary question, having no answer!
Is your love free and unconditional, or is it mixed with various needs, conditions and demands from your partner?

Perhaps finding real love begins with God, the one who created relationships. Let’s be together, share our joy and sorrow, understand each other, provide space to each other, always be there for each others need. And surely love will blossom to strengthen our relationship with our matter of affection.
