Love is

Love is....


The Flower Song (Excerpt)

To hear your voice is pomegranate wine to me:
I draw life from hearing it.
Could I see you with every glance,
It would be better for me
Than to eat or to drink.

The greatest thing you ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.
--Nat King Cole

Unforgettable

Unforgettable, that's what you are
Unforgettable though near or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more

Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay
That's why, darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too

Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay
That's why, darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too

OMG!

I melt when I hear that song! :rose:
 
"If I know what love is, it's because of the way you have been to me. Love is you."
 
Feeling safe in his arms.

Spending the day in the same room together.

His eyes, his smile and his support and tenderness.

Wonderful.:heart:
 
From a very special book

From the movie Notorious

Alicia - Say it again, it keeps me awake.

Devlin - I love you
 
What Does Love Mean?

A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year olds. "What does love mean?" the answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined.

1. When my grandma got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and paint her toenails anymore. So my grandpa does it for her now all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That's love. Rebecca - age 8

2. When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You just know that your name is safe in their mouths. Billy - age 4

3. Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving Cologne and they go out and smell each other. Kari - age 5

4. Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your french fries without making them give you any of theirs. Chrissie - age 6

5. Love is what makes you smile when you're tired. Terri - age 4

6. Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK. Danny - age 7

7. Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more. My mommy and my daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss. Emily - age 8

8. Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen. Bobby - age 7 (WOW!)

9. If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate. Nikka - age 6

10. Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday. Noelle - age 7

11. Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well. Tommy - age 6

12. During my piano recital, I was on stage and I was scared. I looked at all the people watching me, and saw my daddy waving and smiling. He was the only one doing that. I wasn't scared anymore. Cindy - age 8

13. My mommy loves me more than anybody. You don't see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night. Clare - age 6

14. Love is when mommy gives daddy the best piece of chicken. Elaine - age 5

15. Love is when mommy sees daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford. Chris - age 7

16. Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day. Mary Ann - age 4

17. When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you. Karen - age 7

18. Love is when mommy sees daddy on the toilet and doesn't think it's gross. Mark - age 6

19. You really shouldn't say "I LOVE YOU" unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget. Jessica age 8 (priceless)

And the winner was a 4-year old child whose next-door neighbor was an elderly man who had just lost his wife. When the child saw the man cry, the little boy went over into the man's yard and climbed on top of the man's lap and just sat there. When the boy's mother asked him what he'd said to the neighbor, the little boy said, "Nothing, I just helped him cry."

The last was always knowing you have a friend, no matter how many times you screw up. Donna, age 55

Dude, I wouldn't drink that if I was you
 
Love is when you don't want to go to sleep
because reality is better than a dream."

Love is the prerogative of courage

~kym~ ain't skeered :D

Courage is a good sign of love. No doubt about it.

Love is waking and just laying there

Watching her sleep. So beautiful and content.

*nods to D*, it takes courage too open one's inner self up to another. I think we all have the thought we might be hurt if we allow ourselves to be vulnerable, but I'll gladly risk any possible hurt to experience the euphoria of loving another.
I've "been thru the fire" and lived to love again, although there are some folks who don't survive well and they are the ones who scoff at loving and being loved. Those people make me sad. :(


~kym~ embracing life and the opportunity to love another :heart:
 
"Love isn't perfect. It isn't a fairytale or a storybook, and it doesn't always come easy. Love is overcoming obstacles, facing challenges, fighting to be together, holding on and never letting go. Love is work, but most of all, love is realizing that every hour, every minute, every second of it was worth it because you did it ... together."

Kym,

Good for you my dear. Great attitude. We have to take risks if we are to receive the reward of true love.

Oh to have the courage to open up our hearts to love another. So much love to give, we need to have someone to share it with.
 
Love is placing trust in fate and staying with your lover even though they may be thousands of miles away:(
