What is LOVE to you???

I happen to come across a Valentine ad in a magazine I was reading today and in bolded caption was 'What is love to you?'. Well, IMHO, I think (in no particular order) ...

Love is a double edged sword where it can grant you all the happiness under the sun and still hurt you in ways you'd never imagined.

Love is the one thing that can put a smile on one's face even on the stormiest of days.

Love means sacrificing all for you.

Love means never having to say sorry or thank you.

Love means looking into your lover's eyes and understand each other without having to say a single word.

Love means exchanging sweet nothings into each other's ears without cringing.

Love is something a lot of us take for granted.

Love is something God blessed us with. It helps make living beautiful.

Love means spending unnecessarily (and wouldn't mind doing so) on Valentine's day.

Love means gentle kisses and sweet hugs.

Love means TRUST.

Love means for better or worse.

Love means beauty, financial status, the 5Cs are all out of the window.

Love means I'll always be there for you.

Love means I'll share your joys and sorrows.

Love is the one thing that can easily crush the strongest of men.

Love can't be found. It'll find you (mostly when you least expect it).

Love is a big part for a person to lead a rich and fullfilling life.

Love truly makes a person blind ... doing silly li'll things you wouldn't usually do.

Love means floating amongst the colourful butterflies and the happy chirpy birds.

Love means being responsible for your partner's emotional well being.

Love means more-than-willing compromise.

Love means you risk losing something you cherish so much.

Love is something that cannot be bought.

Love can cause you to grin like a silly school girl for no apparent reason.

Love may sometimes mean not calling you mine. Sometimes we have to let go. :(

Love is never predictable.

Love means not being selfish.

Love means looking deep into your eyes and I see a future ... our future.

Love means placing you before everything else.

Love means you have the ability to hurt me way beyond what others are capable of.

Love is so fragile.

Love means enjoying the beautiful sunset, hand in hand together.

Love means sharing our favourite song.

Love is complicated sometimes.

Love means withstanding the full brunt of your PMS attack. (Ear plugs might help here)

Love can hurt others.

Love can lead you to run in confused circles.

Love can be something unexpected ... good or bad.

Love changes.

Love can mend a broken heart.

Love is what YOU mean to me.

In life and in love, it’s not always butterflies and sunshine rays
Sometimes we’re dealt with dark clouds and rainy days
But hand in hand, we can overcome the sad and the low
With all our heart, let’s search for our miracle rainbow


P.S. Please feel free to add to the list. There are lots of love to go around. :)

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. Love never fails. . .And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. - excerpts from 1 Corinthians 13:4-13

One will have to be strong ... people always fall back on the excuse that to err is human because most of the time, we give in to temptations. An idle mind is the devil's playground.
