Re: Define "love" for me if you please... [Re: MyInnerChild]

Love is a nice word for the chemical reactions that occur in our brains as an evolutionary product of our need to reproduce. We, as humans, are blessed with free will. Unfortunately this free will can get in the way of the continuation of our species. The solution? A chemical reaction ("emotion") that can override that willpower, and even common sense, to carry out the act of reproduction. You people like to call this "love".

wow - gush much, but hey the threads about love. :flowers:


Gush mush is fine w/me...a born romantic comedy fan.

When you said you dropped your gaurd did you mean you allowed yourself to be vulnerable? Did you mean you allowed yourself to feel for another person again after your painful experience?

Are you married or "just" in a committed realationship? I put it in quotes b/c I know that marriage doesn't always signify a life-long commitment.

I adopted your journal posting about life-goals to my own personal data and love it! I showed it to my hus and he was very impressed too btw. :thanx:  !!

DNKYD~ Wasn't thak kind of God to create that chemical reaction so that we, his crearion, can have GR8 sex? It's a gift man!

Define love hunh? Not that easy for me.

Now love between friends, that I got. I'm good at that.

Romantic love? I suck at it. I try and I'm good at faking but not really good at the reality.

I'm kind of where you are MIC. A crossroads, almost a dilemma. Should you accept less than perfection and work at it? Or quit and try for the fantasy of perfection? Does that fantasy actually exist or is it indeed really just a fantasy?

You've caught me in a contemplative mood. This has been a question I have been asking myself for almost a year now.

If I get an answer I'll let you know. If you figure it out, please tell me!

Would that not just be our "perception" of reality, like you say, and not reality itself?

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.

Love always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres.

Love bears all things, believes all things,
hopes all things, endures all things.

Love never ends.
