philosophically and psychologically, this is what i've tentatively concluded:
love = time + energy
this is the most basic way i've found to break it down and keep things accurate, without also muddying the waters of discussion with words that others will automatically jump to emotional stance to

i'm glad something did 
this post wasn't meant as some revelatory, ground-breaking idea. the idea is simplistic.
i was looking around this ~8 acre area i've spent much time with and both given and received energy. it kind of clicked. love is a connection; a connection that often exceeds the capacity for words to describe, a connection that often offers as much pleasure as it receives.
so i'm standing, observing the trees (or lack thereof), the meadow, the grouse, the fucking yellow-jackets, the old burn-piles raked out with grass and thistles and wildflowers and raspberries and live oak sprouts.
it's time and energy. it's experience, growth/development. time and energy.

Hmmm, I think Love is an appreciation of connection, and or connections..
The most purest thing would probably be the complete idea of lack never existing..and therefore all things would be fulfilling..but since we got to this point in evolution..which is an idea where we can lack certain essential things..and therefore cause suffering..we need ultimately to understand it first..and than root it out based on our knowledge of its depth..

physics can have math in it, and when it does the results make sense.
these equations are not physics: things are equated here that do not make sense.
love makes sense, and increases understanding of the other. it opens doors and supports connection.
