inside this moment, but being unable to grab onto it. I suspect it is this that inspires people to have children and love affairs. As in fairy tales, we imagine love as total protection and bliss. We want love to be floating leaf boats down river, clasping our hands in joy, magically producing leaves for as long as we want them, ensuring we clear fences, and protecting who we love from everything, forever. Which is why this moment at the same time held tragedy. The heartbreak when we fail our

05/02/2012 Lee Santos Love Webster's Dictionary defines love as, "A strong feeling of attraction resulting from sexual desire, enthusiasm, or fondness." But to me, love is not just a feeling, it is the way that you treat the ones you care for. Everyone should treat loved ones so considerately through their actions, that they will know that they are loved and cared for. Love in my eyes, is making that sacrifice for someone, knowing that you might regret it sooner or later. Love is how you make another

Cummings and “Psalm 183” by Joseph Zitt show love in their individual way, ways we can all connect to.

Many married couples seem to get stuck in a situation of helplessness and fear for years especially when they feel the person they love is no longer reachable. Each person in the relationship can have their own posture, set of gestures, and even hairstyles, as well as a distinct way of dressing and talking when their personality begins to change. Most of the time the changes is sudden and takes only seconds. When the bad behavior shows signs of becoming a pattern, typically most of us would begin

"To love is to receive a glimpse of heaven."-Karen Sunde. Love is one of the most difficult concepts and ideas to understand and accept. When one opens up to the conceptt of love is when they allow themselves to open their hearts and their mind, when they allow themselves to become vulnerable. Why would the body allow this “change” to happen, this vulnerability to be established? Because we need love. Love although difficult to define holds one imperative ideal and that is, happiness.

Vince Lauren L. Zapata Mr. Wall ENC 1102 Sunday, October 5, 2014 “Like Is Not Love, Love Is Not Like” Like and love are two completely different things. When a person likes somebody, he or she is just getting to know that person and trying to figure out if there is something more between the two of them. Like is just making friends, so it is not as deep as love is. People do not really know if they are going to grow to be the best of friends or discover that they really do not like each other

Love. What is love? Love is a very special and meaningful word to each human being. Love is built on a foundation of trust, a thin barrier between formality and chaos. As we grow older we learn to start to build friendship with the people we have things most in common with, along with the people who accept and understand us the best. Love can also be contemplated as a dangerous component of life that works to deceive and manipulate other people’s trust. Many people will argue that love is contaminated

The last mentionable level of love is that bond between a mother and her children. There is no stronger, nor will there ever be. This bond starts from the very first tiny fluttering of movement and never ends, even after death of the child. A mother protects her children in the name of love, and directs them through life using it as the example to follow. Well, at least it should be. It's because of her children a mother will work at a job she hates, just to make sure they have everything they could

Love is a force of nature. No matter how much we may want to, we can not command, or demand love, any more than we can command the moon and the stars to come and go according to our will.

Love is not one’s decision because it is based off immune system genes and neurotransmitters. In a study taken in 2002, it was found that females found the scent of men with similar immune system sequencing than them less desirable. This limits what individuals one may pursue for love, causing love to be less of one’s choice. Also, when the brain has found a potential mate, neurological pathways are made to link that individual to positive emotions, which are often associated with love. One’s subconscious
