But those little kids' words came close enough 
Amazing how children with a small vocabulary can explain such a concept so well.
Thanks CherryBomb, that made me smile

Love is.... ultimate. Ultimately subjective.

Wow. Every one of those kids hit the nail on the head. Love is so many different things and there are so many different ways to show it and explain it. Kids are amazing!
